The Sovereign Collective 096 - Mineral Misinformation: Why Most of Us Are Getting Copper and Iron Wrong with Morley Robbins
Morley Robbins is back for episode #5 on copper!
To get up to speed, you may want to listen to episodes 59, 60, 63 and 67.
This has been a very popular series, and 5 episodes is a testament to this important and sadly misunderstood mineral and its importance in our physiology.
Is an iron deficiency really causing anemia?
Do you really need to supplement with iron? If so, why do you only feel better for a blip in time?
That iron isn't running through you, it's accumulating and that is a dangerous thing. It's time to turn the spotlight onto copper.
We dig into why so many people are misled about mineral balance, how stress and modern life disrupt our bodies, and what you can do to truly support your health. There are some great fundamental basics to be learned here, so tune in and share it around!

Be sure to share it with your friends and family. Iron accumulation affects almost all of us.
And I will say it again... we are electrical beings and our capacity to properly house our spirit and have a healthy physical form requires proper mineralization!
