Today, I am blessed to have here with me Caroline Alan. Dan Howard and Caroline Alan founded BEAM Minerals as a vehicle for promoting the amazing power of plant-based fulvic and humic minerals. Their personal experiences using these completely natural substances transformed their health and their understanding of healing. As a result of their experiences, Dan and Caroline are committed to providing completely pure, 100% bioavailable, sustainably produced, fulvic, and humic products. In this episode, Caroline Alan explains everything you need to know about minerals. Did you know that every single cell in your body requires minerals? Unfortunately, most people are mineral depleted. Caroline explains why you may be suffering from mineral deficiency and not getting enough minerals from the foods you eat. Luckily, Caroline reveals how you can replenish minerals through her products like Micro-BOOST, Electrolyze, and Insta-Lytes. Tune in as we chat about avoiding period symptoms with minerals, what you need to know about minerals on a carnivore diet, and why Caroline recommends liquid plant-based minerals.  Get Beam Mineral products here: www.beamminerals.com/ketokamp use the code ketokamp for 20% off your entire order.  ?

[06:10] Every Single Cell In Your Body Needs Minerals To Thrive  If you took all the water out of your body, you'd be a little pile of minerals. Your entire body, including the mitochondria, is driven off of minerals and amino acids. When you are mineral depleted, it's like the light is dimmed. Every single part of your body is made of cells; each cell requires minerals.  You have to have minerals to generate ATPs.  [09:10] Mineral Deficiency: The Reason You Aren’t Getting Enough Minerals From Your Food You can’t get minerals from the food that you eat because farming has depleted our food of natural minerals. Farmers spray the plants and the soil with things that kill the microbes. The minerals in the food that you eat are made from microbes.  Hidden hunger happens when you have multiple micronutrient deficiencies.  Overall, Caroline wants everyone to know that you need a full spectrum of minerals. Most likely, you will need supplements.  [14:25] Plant-Based Minerals Are Bioavailable So Your Body Can Use Immediately  Bioavailability has three stages: digestion, absorption, and assimilation. Without these three stages, whatever you put in your mouth is useless. When you consume something, it has to be broken down into its chemical components.  If you take a supplement made from bones, shells, and rocks, your body won’t be able to digest it properly.  However, your body is wholly evolved to digest minerals from plants.  [20:20] Assimilation: How Your Mitochondria Gets Access To Essential Minerals  Most minerals do not do their job unless they've been assimilated into the cell where the mitochondria can access them. The reason that many of us don't have good assimilation is that we don't have a lot of flavonoids in our system. Liquid plant-based minerals have flavonoids that can carry nutrients into the cell.  You can take a significant amount of magnesium; only some of it is digested.  Then a smaller portion of it's absorbed, and then a minimal amount is assimilated.
