Affected mining communities are appearing before Parliament today to demand a formal inquiry into a century of environmental damage and economic debt. Leading the "100 Year Debt Campaign", the groups are presenting their case directly to the Portfolio Committee on Mineral and Petroleum Resources. They are calling for an immediate investigation into corporate exits, abandoned shafts, and failed land rehabilitation. We spoke to Mining Affected Communities United in Action, MACUA Executive Director, Christopher Rutledge.
The portfolio committee on Land Reform and Rural Development expressed dissatisfaction with the distribution of farm worker equity schemes, while the portfolio committee on Mineral and Petroleum Resources says the processing of the South African National Petroleum Resources Company Bill is at an advance stage. As Abongwe Kobokana reports, the committees briefed the media on their oversight responsibilities.
Hashimoto's, thyroid dysfunction, and hormone imbalance — Sophie Shepherd, founder of She Talks Health and host of the She Talks Health Podcast, joins Freddie Kimmel to break down why "balancing your hormones" is usually the wrong starting point. A Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner who works primarily with women navigating Hashimoto's, thyroid issues, and mystery symptoms like fatigue, bloating, anxiety, and brain fog, Sophie shares her own decade-long health story — from unexplained teenage digestive pain to a hypothyroid diagnosis dismissed as "normal labs" — and the path that led her out of theater and into functional medicine. The conversation covers hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) testing, why mineral balancing (especially copper, zinc, and manganese) can restore fertility and regulate cycles without directly touching hormones, the limits of hormone panels like the Dutch test for irregular cycles, and why chronic stress — emotional, physical, and environmental — is the upstream driver hiding behind most "hormone problems." Sophie and Freddie also get into red light therapy for thyroid inflammation, an honest take on cold plunging for women with Hashimoto's, subconscious rewiring tools like the quantum time technique, and a candid conversation about trust, bio-individuality, and the sponsorship-driven infighting in the health influencer space.

ERIE HAD A MINERAL DEAL. UNTIL THE CITIZENS SAID WAIT. For two years the town of Erie has been working to create a mineral deal with SM Energy, who have what is called the Draco pad. The Draco pad sits next to the town of Erie and SM Energy wanted to buy several plots of mineral rights that run under the town so they could use horizontal drilling to extract the oil and gas there. For two years they negotiated a deal that would have been very lucrative for Erie and it seemed a couple of weeks ago they had it. Here is what is in the deal: Cash & Revenue: $4.5 million upfront plus 3% production royalties over the life of the project (estimated over $21 million total).Land Transfers: Three parcels totaling roughly 160 acres along County Line Road transferred to the town.Well Mitigation: SM Energy agrees to plug and abandon 17 additional old or orphaned wells.Site Access: Town staff receive rights to perform routine safety inspections on the Draco well pad.Legal Context: Under Colorado law (SB 24-185), developers cannot force-pool municipal mineral rights, giving Erie leverage—which the council ultimately chose to trade for financial and land compensation rather than forcing the developer to route around town-owned strata. But not so fast. SM Energy has cancelled the deal after the citizens of Erie decided to put it on the ballot.

Drawing on decades of research and practical field experience, the panel begins by examining large laboratory datasets that reveal substantial variation in trace mineral concentrations across forages and total mixed rations. These observations highlight the importance of understanding real-world variability rather than relying solely on average values when making nutritional decisions. (00:00–03:16) The discussion quickly moves into one of dairy nutrition's most debated topics: the reliability of TMR testing. While many nutritionists use TMR analyses as a quality control measure, others remain skeptical due to the challenges associated with obtaining representative samples from inherently heterogeneous rations. The panel agrees that TMR testing can provide valuable information, but only when consistent sampling protocols and proper laboratory procedures are followed. (03:16–06:46) Building on this theme, the group discusses mixer studies as a powerful quality control tool. By evaluating nutrient variation within a load and across multiple batches, producers and nutritionists can better assess feeding consistency, identify operational issues, and improve ration delivery accuracy. These studies often provide a more complete picture of feeding performance than a single feed sample alone. (06:46–12:12) A significant portion of the conversation focuses on trace mineral supplementation practices. The panel notes that although average mineral concentrations may appear appropriate on paper, many diets still contain excessive levels of trace minerals. Overfeeding can increase costs, contribute to nutrient antagonisms, impair rumen function, and raise concerns about toxicity. The experts emphasize the importance of balancing supplementation programs based on actual dietary contributions rather than adding large safety margins. (12:13–16:46) The discussion then shifts to the impact of soil contamination on forage analysis and nutrient interpretation. Soil contamination can dramatically influence ash concentrations and artificially inflate measured trace mineral levels, creating challenges for nutritionists attempting to accurately evaluate feed value. The panel highlights emerging approaches, including the use of carbon measurements as a more precise indicator of contamination, which may improve how forage quality is assessed in the future. (16:47–25:47) Regional differences in feed composition also receive considerable attention. Factors such as irrigation practices, soil characteristics, and co-product feeding programs can contribute to elevated sulfur and trace mineral concentrations in certain areas, increasing the risk of mineral antagonisms and affecting nutrient availability. Understanding these local influences is essential for developing effective mineral nutrition programs that are tailored to specific production environments. Looking ahead, the panel explores innovations that could transform feed evaluation and ration formulation. Topics include amino acid profiling, the industry's gradual move beyond crude protein as a primary nutritional metric, and the potential for artificial intelligence to improve predictions of forage quality and nutrient composition. These advances may provide nutritionists with more accurate tools for optimizing dairy cow performance and feed efficiency. (35:16–41:10) The episode concludes with a practical takeaway for dairy producers, nutritionists, and consultants: laboratory analyses and advanced technologies are most valuable when paired with a thorough understanding of feed variability and strong on-farm quality control practices. Whether evaluating trace minerals, interpreting forage analyses, or implementing new technologies, success ultimately depends on consistently managing variation throughout the feeding system.

Still mourning the loss of Zaza, VS takes the lead with Eero and Ibin. They meet Aulderik, a Mystran cleric investigating the Prismatic caves, who joins the party and is shown the strange random magical properties of the cavern. They converse with "crystal dwarf" Feldspar, who tells them of his friend Dumathoin. Exploring some of the other caverns, they encounter crystal-encrusted and possibly immortal Tyrran monks having a schvitz in a sandsauna and mineral baths. Having apparently explored the whole complex, they depart and explore the nearby mountains, looking for the dwarven ruin known as Greywatch. They inter Zaza in some streams full of szorp fish that he would have loved. Hazbarg the Stone Giant shows them how to find Greywatch but warns it is a difficult climb on an eroded cliff-road. They explore back towards Llorkh, hoping to find some new recruits for the Grandfather Eel cult there.

This episode is brought to you by The Primal Skincare.Is your "healthy" supplement routine actually causing mineral imbalances? Today, we are joined by Morley Robbins, creator of the Root Cause Protocol, to expose the systemic mineral dysregulation that is driving modern chronic illness.While many focus on iron levels, Morley reveals why the real "mineral disaster" lies in copper deficiency, magnesium depletion, and the vital role of bioavailable iodine. We break down how iron toxicity and copper dysregulation sabotage your mitochondria and lead to the exhaustion, metabolic issues, and health crises we see today.In This Episode, We Reveal:The Root Cause Protocol: Why modern health issues are often rooted in mineral metabolism rather than just "bad genes."The Iron-Copper Connection: The critical role of ceruloplasmin and why simple iron supplementation may be causing more harm than good.The Magnesium Gap: Why 90% of the population is deficient and how it impacts cellular energy production.Iodine Deficiency: Why this essential trace element is the "missing link" for thyroid and adrenal health.
This episode explores two important but often misunderstood topics in cattle production: mineral supplementation and the microbiome. The discussion begins with a listener question about whether the source of minerals in a supplement matters. The hosts explain that mineral bioavailability can vary significantly depending on whether minerals are supplied as sulfates, chlorides, oxides, or organic complexes, and that not all sources are equally effective. For example, copper oxide has relatively poor bioavailability compared to copper sulfate, while other mineral sources differ less dramatically. Resource: https://ksubci.org/tools/calculators/ “Evaluating mineral feed tags for beef cattle” The group emphasizes that mineral needs are highly dependent on local soils, forage quality, and the presence of antagonistic compounds such as sulfur, iron, or molybdenum. As a result, selecting the right mineral program requires more than simply comparing prices and nutrient percentages on a feed tag. The conversation then shifts to the microbiome, defined as the community of microorganisms living within and on animals, particularly in the digestive tract. These microbes play critical roles in digestion, nutrient utilization, and overall health, especially in ruminants that depend on microbial fermentation to break down forage. The hosts note that research is increasingly showing links between the microbiome and broader physiological outcomes, including metabolism, disease susceptibility, and animal performance. They also discuss how management decisions, diet changes, stress, and antibiotic use can alter microbial populations, though many of those effects are not yet fully understood. While microbiome research remains in its early stages, the episode highlights its potential to reshape how producers think about health and nutrition, moving beyond the traditional view that all microbes are harmful and toward a more systems-based understanding of cattle production.
Have you been told your thyroid labs are "normal" but you still struggle with fatigue, brain fog, and weight gain? Could a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) uncover hidden mineral imbalances that are keeping your Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism symptoms from improving?In this episode, I'm taking you through a real client success story so you can see exactly how I use HTMA testing to connect the dots between someone's symptoms and what's really happening inside their body. We'll go through where this client started, what her test results revealed, and why those findings helped explain years of frustrating symptoms despite her doing everything “right.”I break down the key mineral patterns we found in her HTMA results, explain how they manifested in her body, outline the optimal levels of certain minerals, and show you how we built a personalized plan based on her results rather than relying on guesswork. I also share why I believe testing is one of the most important steps for creating a targeted healing plan, especially when you're dealing with Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism.Finally, we go over her progress over several months, what changed on her retesting, and the lessons you can take away for your own health journey. With HTMA testing, this is what's possible when you stop chasing symptoms and start understanding what your body is trying to tell you. I hope this episode helps inspire you to take that first step toward taking the guesswork out of your health and start on your own path toward optimized health.

The Mineral Rights Podcast: Mineral Rights | Royalties | Oil and Gas | Matt Sands
Only two things in life are guaranteed: death and taxes. Mineral rights don't get an exception. A listener wrote in about a tiny, recurring property tax bill on non-producing minerals in Kansas and asked the question: what actually happens if I just don't pay it? We answered their question in MRP 340: Listener Questions July 2026 and that question prompted this episode, because the honest answer is that property tax on minerals is complicated — and getting it wrong can, in the wrong state, actually cost you the minerals themselves.

"It's totally her minerals, it's not her."— Dori MartinThere's a particular kind of tired that doesn't go away with sleep — the brain fog, the inflammation, the mood swings that make you feel like a stranger in your own body. For years, Dori Martin thought that was just what happens to women in midlife. It wasn't, and what she discovered instead is the heart of this conversation.Dori Martin is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner who uses Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis to help midlife women understand what's really going on beneath the surface. We talk about the decade of caretaking that led to her own burnout — from a divorce with two small children, to getting engaged to a man given a terminal diagnosis, to watching her own labs come back worse than his. Dori explains why mineral depletion is so often mistaken for a personality problem, and what it actually takes for a woman's body to feel safe enough to rest and recover.If you've ever felt exhausted, inflamed, or like your moods aren't quite your own — this one will feel like a mirror.

Critical minerals sit at the intersection of energy technology, industrial competitiveness, and economic resilience. The issue has hit a fever pitch in the United States, driving the Trump administration to establish a $12 billion Strategic Critical Minerals Reserve and take other steps to support domestic mining projects. More broadly, G7 countries recently agreed to step up coordination to cut their countries' reliance on China for critical minerals. All of these moves are targeted at breaking China's stronghold on the sector, which it built over decades as the US largely turned away from securing a critical mineral supply chain. And it's not just about supply dominance, China is also using its strengths in the sector as a geopolitical weapon. Yet, questions remain over whether US investments to date, or international agreements, are stoking the level of private investment needed to compete with China. So what financial models could provide effective blueprints for quickly scaling mineral supply? Which countries are pursuing the most promising approaches? And looking beyond investments, what policy tools could help the US and its allies grow a resilient critical minerals supply chain? Today on the show, Bill Loveless speaks to Tom Moerenhout and Tomasz Nadrowski about what it takes to build mineral supply chains as strategic infrastructure and how targeted financial instruments could lower risks for investors. Tom Moerenhout leads the Critical Materials Initiative at the Center on Global Energy Policy and is a professor at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs. Recently, he and other scholars at the center contributed to a new World Economic Forum report called "Making Critical Minerals Bankable: Policy Tools to Unlock Investment." Tomasz Nadrowski is the co-founder and portfolio manager at Amvest Terraden, where he invests in exploration, development and mining companies that are focused on strategic minerals. He has 25 years of mining sector investment experience. He is also the author of the recently published book Mineral War: China's Quest for Weapons of Mass Destruction.

Have you been told your thyroid labs are "normal" but you still struggle with fatigue, brain fog, and weight gain? Could a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) uncover hidden mineral imbalances that are keeping your Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism symptoms from improving?In this episode, I'm taking you through a real client success story so you can see exactly how I use HTMA testing to connect the dots between someone's symptoms and what's really happening inside their body. We'll go through where this client started, what her test results revealed, and why those findings helped explain years of frustrating symptoms despite her doing everything “right.”I break down the key mineral patterns we found in her HTMA results, explain how they manifested in her body, outline the optimal levels of certain minerals, and show you how we built a personalized plan based on her results rather than relying on guesswork. I also share why I believe testing is one of the most important steps for creating a targeted healing plan, especially when you're dealing with Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism.Finally, we go over her progress over several months, what changed on her retesting, and the lessons you can take away for your own health journey. With HTMA testing, this is what's possible when you stop chasing symptoms and start understanding what your body is trying to tell you. I hope this episode helps inspire you to take that first step toward taking the guesswork out of your health and start on your own path toward optimized health.

The Mineral Rights Podcast: Mineral Rights | Royalties | Oil and Gas | Matt Sands
Getting that first royalty check feels like the finish line. You cashed it, the operator knows your name, and as far as you're concerned, the minerals are yours. But the truth is: an operator paying you and you actually owning marketable or clean title to your minerals are two completely different things, decided by two completely different standards. One is about an operator managing its own risk. The other is the legal bar a buyer, a bank, or a court will actually hold you to. In this episode, we dig into that gap — what it means, why it exists, and what you can (and can't) do about it with some commonly used shortcuts. As always, more information (including links to the resources mentioned in this episode can be found in the show notes at mineralrightspodcast.com).
For many athletes, especially in the world of endurance sport, the exhaustion that follows a hard effort is part of the reward for the training it took to make it happen. But when the mountaintop feeling of a new personal best fades away and the fatigue still lingers, it might be a sign of something deeper lurking beneath the surface. What if that fatigue you're battling during a heavy training block is more than simply the product of hard work? What if the impacts of an activity-filled lifestyle might actually be contributing to long term health risks? These are the questions that have often gone unheard or overlooked by athletes at all ability levels, but are crucial to making sure that sport remains a healthy part of any athlete's life. While there's no simple catchall answer to the above questions, a recurring theme that has drawn the ongoing attention of leading sports scientists, dieticians, and doctors is the impact of low iron levels. Yet for all iron's importance to our overall health–and sport performance–it remains largely misunderstood by many athletes. That's why a group of Canada's leading sport-science minds have spent the last three years compiling the research for a landmark consensus on the role of iron in sport. This week on The Shakeout Podcast we're joined be Kelly Anne Erdman, a registered sport dietitian, Olympian, and co-author of “Canada's Best Practice Guidelines for Iron Optimization in Athletes”. Kelly Anne joins us to discuss the critical importance of maintaining healthy iron levels for general wellbeing, how to spot and treat the signs and symptoms of iron deficiency, and how making iron a priority could be the path to feeling–and performing–at your best.

Ein Berg im Fensterrahmen, so schön und nah, dass er aussieht wie ein Gemälde. Nur dass er echt ist! Und schon Ewigkeiten dort steht.Jochen war im Schweizer Unterengadin. Rund um den kleinen Ort Scuol, wohin die Bahn erst durch einen 19 Kilometer langen Tunnel muss und dahinter eine Welt beginnt, die beschaulich und riesig zugleich ist. Er sitzt auf einer Almwiese und kann sich nicht sattsehen am grandiosen Alpenpanorama. Er trifft Murmeltiere, die keine Angst haben, weil der Schweizerische Nationalpark die Natur wirklich der Natur überlässt. Er wandert an Gebirgsflüssen. Er lernt, dass Ameisen Blattläuse melken. Er entdeckt weiße Steinhäuser mit 400 Jahre alten Graffitis. Und er trinkt weltberühmtes Mineralwasser wie Wein - fast direkt aus dem Boden. Am Ende bleibt noch eine weitere Erkenntnis: Was hier Käse-Standard ist, wäre woanders absolute Delikatesse.Allegra! Freue dich! Komm mit in die Berge.—

Our body doesn't need minerals the way we think.Caroline Alan, co-founder of BEAM Minerals and author of The Mineral Reset, has spent years studying why our soils, food, and cells have all run dry at the same time.A US Senate document from 1936 warned about mineral depletion in American soil. Almost a century later, nothing's changed, and the studies on nutrient density in modern crops back that up.What I find fascinating is how this connects to energy itself. A fully mineralized body can generate around 1,200 watts of electricity in a day. Most of us aren't anywhere close.Caroline breaks down why pills made from rocks, shells, and bones don't absorb, how plant-based humic and fulvic substances act as nature's pre-formulated delivery system, and why concentrated single minerals can pull calcium and phosphorus out of your bones over time.She also explains the magnet-like way humic molecules bind heavy metals and carry them out of the body.Visit beamminerals.com/luke and use code LUKE20 for 20% off.Register for the live Mineral Reset Program Bookinar at mineralresetbook.com/bookinarYou'll learn:[0:00] Introduction[3:25] The 1936 congressional warning about soil depletion that we've done nothing about[11:51] 90% of rock, shell, and bone-based mineral supplements end up in the toilet[21:52] Fulvic sprayed on mosquito bites stops the itch almost instantly[26:16] Can gray hair actually reverse with mineral replenishment?[33:43] How an entire rainforest got compressed into a two-foot strata of humate[45:05] The Oligoscan reveals what's actually inside your cells, not just what you're excreting[50:01] Heavy metals bound in the humic molecule act as magnets instead of toxins[54:35] The paradox of aluminum in zeolite and lead in humic that actually detoxes you[1:00:05] How to stack MicroBoost and Electrolyze around your sauna sessions[1:03:29] Practitioners now tell chronically ill clients to start with minerals first[1:11:05] Quinton and sea plasma miss the delivery system that makes fulvic uniqueResources Mentioned:Modern Miracle Men by Rex Beach | DocumentChanges in USDA food composition data for 43 garden crops, 1950 to 1999 by Davis et al. | StudyMitolife Radio | PodcastMitolife Panacea Shilajit | WebsiteGraham Hancock | WebsiteThe Oligoscan | WebsiteLiving Silica | WebsiteZeoCharge | WebsiteMitozen Lumetol Blue Bars | WebsiteQuinton Marine Plasma | WebsiteFull show notes at lukestorey.com/minerals3Related The Life Stylist Episodes:Unlock Nature's Nutrition & Detox Codes: Fulvic + Humic Mineral Power w/ BEAM's Caroline Alan | PodcastGet Minerals In & Toxins Out to Power Your Mitochondria, Hormones, & Brain | PodcastWhy Fixing Mineral Balance w/ Hair Testing & Nano Minerals is Priority #1 feat.

Leveling Up: Creating Everything From Nothing with Natalie Jill
You guys know I am a HUGE believer in the right supplements and the right protocols. So when I tell you that today's episode is about the FOUNDATION underneath ALL of it, lean in. Modern scientists believe we are operating at only thirty-seven to forty percent of the mineral levels our bodies actually need. Minerals are the only nutrient class your body cannot make. They are the foundation under hormones, gut, sleep, energy, hair, and yes, even under the great supplements you are already taking. This is the conversation midlife women have been waiting for. I sat down with Caroline Alan, founder of BEAM Minerals and author of The Mineral Reset, published by Hay House (with a foreword by Dr. Mindy Pelz, who called it "a lifeline"). Caroline was the woman doing everything right at 50 and still falling apart. Brain fog. Hair loss. Inflammation. Three miscarriages. Doctors told her it was just normal aging. She went deep into the science of minerals and it changed everything for her. This is NOT anti-supplement. This is the FOUNDATION that finally makes the supplements and protocols you are already loving actually land.

Send us Fan MailWhat if your body isn't working against you?What if it's making intelligent decisions based on the resources it has available?In this episode of It's Hertime, Cody sits down with biochemist and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner Nick Dorsey for one of the most thought-provoking conversations we've had on the podcast.Together, they explore a powerful idea: the body is constantly evaluating its environment—assessing energy, nutrients, stress, inflammation, toxicity, and biological safety—to determine where its resources should go.When those resources are limited, the body may intentionally downregulate energy-intensive processes like fertility, hormone production, metabolism, immune regulation, and repair. Not because it's failing—but because it's adapting.Nick explains why symptoms such as fatigue, hormone imbalances, gut dysfunction, anxiety, weight loss resistance, and even unexplained infertility may be intelligent protective responses rather than isolated problems to “fix.”This conversation will challenge the way you think about health and introduce a systems-based framework that connects the microbiome, mitochondria, minerals, and nervous system into one beautifully integrated picture.If you've ever been told your labs are “normal” but you still don't feel like yourself, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on why that can happen—and what your body may actually be asking for.In this episode, we discuss:●Why the body is constantly making decisions behind the scenes●How the body decides where to spend its energy and resources●Why fertility is an energy and resource decision—not simply a hormone problem●Why “unexplained infertility” often isn't unexplained at all●Why normal lab work doesn't always mean the body has what it needs to heal or reproduce●The hidden resource economy behind hormone imbalance, chronic fatigue, thyroid dysfunction, gut issues, anxiety, and inflammation●The Four Pillars of Biological Readiness:●The microbiome●Mitochondrial health●Mineral balance●Nervous system regulation●What “biological safety” really means●How chronic stress, nutrient deficiencies, toxins, blood sugar instability, inflammation, and poor sleep influence every system in the body●Why symptom-chasing often keeps people stuck●What true resilience and healing actually look likeConnect with NickLearn more about Nick's work at Functional Chemistry.Follow Nick on Instagram: @nick.dorsey10You can also find him on YouTube: Functional Chemistry. Visit Nick's Website and QuizWant to Go Deeper?Connect with CodyOne of the themes that came up repeatedly in this conversation is the importance of mineral balance and understanding the body's unique patterns of adaptation.This is exactly why I use Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) in my practice.HTMA is a functional assessment that measures mineral patterns in the tissues—not just what's circulating in the blood—to help uncover stress patterns, metabolic tendencies, and mineral imbalances that may be influencing energy, hormones, thyroid function, nervous system regulation, and overall resilience.If you're tired of being told everything looks “normal” but you still don't feel like yourself, HTMA can provide a different lens for understanding what your body has been communicating all along.If you'd like to work with me or have an HTMA kit sent directly to your home, send me a DM on Instagram at @codyjeansanders with the word HTMA. I'd love to help you better understand your body's unique story.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs to hear this conversation.Because sometimes the most important step toward healing isn't finding another protocol—it's understanding how brilliantly your body has been working to protect you all along.Did you learn something new today?

The episode opens with introductions and an overview of the discussion, establishing the critical role trace minerals play in modern beef production (00:00 – 01:35). The conversation frames mineral nutrition not simply as a requirement for preventing deficiencies, but as a strategic management tool that can influence animal performance, health, reproductive success, and profitability throughout the production cycle. Early in the discussion, Dr. Hansen introduces her "Olympic podium" framework for evaluating mineral nutrition programs (01:35 – 06:28). She describes bronze-level nutrition as meeting basic NRC requirements, silver-level nutrition as incorporating regional considerations and mineral antagonists, and gold-level nutrition as fully optimized supplementation tailored to the unique challenges and goals of a specific production system. This framework highlights the difference between simply meeting minimum requirements and strategically maximizing animal performance through precision nutrition. The conversation then examines how dramatic advances in genetics, nutrition, and management have transformed the beef industry (06:28 – 07:42). Today's cattle are capable of growth rates, feed efficiencies, and production outcomes that exceed historical standards, prompting questions about whether traditional mineral recommendations remain adequate for supporting the needs of modern animals. As performance expectations have evolved, mineral nutrition strategies may need to evolve as well. One of the most important discussions in the episode focuses on the balance between zinc and copper supplementation (07:42 – 13:13). Dr. Hansen explains that while zinc frequently delivers benefits at higher inclusion levels due to its involvement in countless biological processes, copper requires a much more cautious approach. The panel discusses how copper availability is heavily influenced by antagonists and how both deficiency and excess can create significant challenges. Rather than relying solely on predetermined mineral ratios, producers are encouraged to evaluate their systems holistically and make decisions based on actual risk factors and mineral availability. A major theme throughout the episode is the impact of mineral antagonists and water quality on trace mineral status (13:13 – 17:18). The discussion highlights sulfur, iron, and molybdenum as some of the most important antagonists affecting mineral absorption and utilization. Water quality often receives less attention than feed ingredients, yet seasonal changes, differences in water sources, and fluctuations in mineral content can substantially influence animal performance. Understanding these variables is essential for developing effective supplementation programs that account for real-world production conditions. The conversation then shifts to reproductive performance and immune health, with particular emphasis on zinc's biological importance (17:18 – 22:14). Often referred to as the "spark of life," zinc plays critical roles in early embryo development, cellular function, tissue repair, and immune response. The panel explains why maintaining adequate zinc status can have far-reaching implications for fertility, calf viability, and overall herd productivity, making it one of the most influential trace minerals in beef cattle nutrition. A particularly timely discussion centers on the growing population of dairy-beef cross calves entering beef production systems (22:14 – 27:57). Dr. Hansen explains that these animals may arrive with mineral profiles that differ substantially from traditional beef calves. While many native beef calves often enter feedlots with copper deficiencies, dairy-beef calves may possess excessively high liver copper concentrations due to different management and supplementation practices. These differences underscore the need for targeted mineral programs rather than blanket recommendations applied across all cattle populations. Beyond these key topics, the panel shares practical management strategies for improving mineral nutrition in commercial beef operations. The discussion explores how mineral supplementation can be viewed as a form of risk mitigation, helping animals better withstand stressors such as transportation, weather fluctuations, health challenges, and inconsistent feed intake. The speakers also emphasize the importance of adjusting supplementation strategies based on antagonists and environmental conditions rather than relying exclusively on fixed formulations. Additional insights focus on improving consistency in cow-calf mineral delivery systems and developing nutrition programs that support long-term herd resilience. The episode concludes with a reminder that modern beef production systems are increasingly diverse and complex. As genetics, management, and production goals continue to evolve, mineral nutrition programs must become more targeted and system-specific. Success depends on understanding the unique challenges within each operation and developing strategies that optimize animal health, reproductive performance, efficiency, and lifetime productivity.

Your body contains approximately 100 different types of minerals, but most people are deficient or imbalanced, leading to symptoms like brain fog, lethargy, irregular sleep patterns, and even reduced sex drive. Yet, mineral supplementation remains neglected – mostly because people don't realize how easy it is.Finally, someone is talking about mineral replenishment!Containing each of the minerals the body needs for optimal function, BEAM Minerals restores cellular energy, allowing the body to gain and maintain healthy balance.On this episode we spend some time with a special guest, who has been coined, The Mineral Geek.Caroline Alan is a health survivor, mineral expert, and educator on a mission to redefine how we think about cellular health. After a high-pressure career in tech left her physically and mentally depleted, her healing journey led to the discovery of plant-based minerals and their powerful role in restoring the body's natural balance. Her experience sparked deep research into human physiology and the science of humic and fulvic substances.Today, as Co-Founder and CEO of BEAM Minerals, Caroline, affectionately known as “The Mineral Geek,” shares this life changing knowledge with clarity, science, and heart, empowering others to take charge of their wellness at the cellular level.Talking Points:More than 30 trillion cells in the body: Minerals are required in the life cycle of a cell and to function properly.Without minerals the cells struggle to complete basic functions.We tend to think of illness as something wrong with an organ or a system of the body, rather than a symptom of depletion at the cellular level.Many chronic health issues are rooted in mineral depletion.Learn more by visiting Beamminerals.comLearn more about the Mineral Reset Book

Many people are exhausted, foggy, and aging faster than they should, despite "doing everything right." The real issue isn't discipline, but cellular dysfunction, poor breathing techniques, parasites, and hidden toxins. In this episode, I sit down with Drew Canole, founder of Organifi, to explore how mitochondrial health, mineral depletion, and environmental toxicity are controlling our energy and decision-making. Drew talks about how he went from burnout to building a global wellness brand, and how simple inputs like breathwork, shilajit, and green juice can dramatically shift cellular performance and vitality. We also break down why identity is the true driver of health transformation, and how restoring minerals and oxygen flow can reactivate energy production at the deepest level. This conversation will challenge how you think about fatigue, fat loss, and aging.

You can own the dirt under someone's ranch without ever setting foot on it and still collect a check every month while an oil company does all the work. Karl Brensike of Harvest Mineral & Royalty Partners calls minerals the single greatest asset class on the planet, and he makes a pretty convincing case for it. Chuck digs into how regular folks can finally get a piece, why people really decide to sell, and the apple pie scheme that squeezed a million bucks out of Chevron.Click here to watch a video of this episode.Join the conversation shaping the future of energy.Collide is the community where oil & gas professionals connect, share insights, and solve real-world problems together.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes back John Feneck to the show. John Feneck is the CEO of Feneck Consulting Group. The discussion opens with the critical tungsten supply crunch, where China's recent export restrictions, including cutting off Japan, highlight a severe imbalance. John notes that the U.S. has not produced tungsten since 2015, while 85% of global supply comes from China, Russia, and North Korea, posing risks for defense and technology. He sees potential in advanced North American projects, and mentions growing U.S. government interest in securing domestic production. On precious metals, he views the recent sharp correction in silver and gold as a medium-term buying opportunity, with silver likely to hold around $50 after its parabolic rise, and gold's long-term bullish case supported by large bank price targets despite near-term rate-hike uncertainties. He favors producers Silverco and Americas Gold and Silver for their strong plans and management conviction. Turning to copper, near all-time highs, John highlights the supply constraints from long permitting timelines and names Power Metallic, backed by 17 billionaires and exceptional drill results, and PTX Metals, which offers low-cost copper with a pending uranium spin-off. In critical minerals, he mentions Esport Critical for its rare earths, uranium, and copper assets, and First Tolerium for its innovative thermoelectric technology with potential defense and drone applications, showcased at the upcoming DARPA competition. John concludes by describing Feneck Consulting Group's decade-long track record of providing actionable insights, real-time email updates, and investor conferences, emphasizing the value of independent, non-herd thinking in resource investing.

He's delivered over 250 client seminars and webinars, spoken at 12 global commodities events, and in 2017 joined Sprott's precious metals portfolio-management team. There he developed a proprietary methodology combining technical analysis with direct insights from company management, advocating a “go anywhere” strategy and a diversified portfolio of 25–50 resource stocks to navigate the sector's volatility. In September 2019 he founded Feneck Consulting Group, helping small- and mid-cap metals and mining companies raise brand awareness and advising high-net-worth advisors on market opportunities and risks.

WATCH ON YOUTUBE HERE. Have you ever looked at your HTMA results and thought: "Okay... but what does any of this actually mean?" If so, today's episode is for you. I'm joined by women's health dietitian and HTMA expert Amanda Montalvo for a deep dive into one of our favorite parts of the Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis test: significant ratios. Inside Nourished Fertility, HTMAs have completely transformed how we support women with period loss, fertility struggles, thyroid symptoms, and hormone imbalances. These tests allow us to see deeper than standard blood work and understand how stress, metabolism, nervous system function, thyroid health, and mineral status are impacting your fertility journey. In this conversation, Amanda breaks down exactly what significant ratios are, why they matter, and how they help us understand what's happening behind symptoms like: Missing or irregular periods Fertility challenges Low energy and burnout Thyroid symptoms Blood sugar instability Anxiety and overwhelm Difficulty recovering from stress We also discuss why hormone imbalances are often the last thing to show up in the body—and why minerals may be the missing piece you've been overlooking. If you've completed an HTMA, are considering one, or simply want a better understanding of how minerals impact fertility, this episode is a must-listen. Ready to Restore Your Fertility? If you have a missing or irregular period and you're ready to uncover the root cause, we'd love to support you inside Premier Period Recovery for Fertility.
