In this episode, I’m speaking with Caroline Alan, the self-proclaimed “Mineral Geek.”
She shares her history of serious health problems, including gut inflammation, periodontal disease with bone loss in her teeth, recurring sinus infections, brain fog so bad she left her corporate career, and lifelong insomnia.
But her health completely transformed thanks to a chance suggestion from her business partner to try liquid minerals.
Caroline is now passionate about sharing the connections she’s found between mineral depletion, replenishment, and cellular function.
She’s also a soon-to-be published author; her book, The Mineral Reset: The Essential Guide to Replenishing Your Body and Restoring Your Health, will be available at the end of April.

![The Hidden Role of Mitochondria in Chronic Illness & Fatigue
What if your mitochondria arent broken, but rather stuck in defense mode?
What if chronic illness isnt about damaged cells, but about cells that cant sense safety anymore?
Dr. Eric Gordon has spent over 40 years in the trenches of complex chronic illness, working with thousands of patients who didnt fit into conventional medicines boxes. Hes one of the deepest thinkers in functional medicine and an original voice who has witnessed and worked through every health fad out there.
In this conversation, he explains why mitochondrial support sometimes backfires, why your body gets stuck in chronic illness patterns like a neurotic loop, and most importantly, how to give your cells the safety signals they need to heal.
