Welcome back, everyone! Today, we continue with part three of our eight-part mineral series, focusing on the crucial sodium-to-potassium ratio. In this episode, I explore the fundamental role this ratio plays in your body's cellular function, adrenal health, stress response, and emotional well-being. The sodium-to-potassium ratio, often referred to as the 'vitality ratio' or 'stress ratio,' is essential for maintaining balance within our cells. We'll discuss how high ratios can indicate acute stress and inflammation, manifesting in symptoms like high blood pressure, water retention, and emotional volatility. On the other end of the spectrum, low ratios often point to chronic immune challenges, persistent fatigue, and even hidden traumas. These imbalances can have far-reaching effects on your kidney and liver health, and understanding them can uncover a lot of vital information about both physical and emotional health. I also touch on practical steps you can take to address these imbalances, including the free Morning Mineral Mocktail Guide and how to get a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) to get personalized insights and actionable plans. Tune in for a comprehensive understanding of how maintaining the right sodium to potassium balance can really be a game changer for our adrenal health, energy levels, and even our emotional well-being. Whether you're struggling with chronic stress, inflammation, or just want to optimize your energy and overall health, this episode is packed with vital information to guide you on your health journey.Disclaimer: This information is being provided to you for educational and informational purposes only.

In this episode of Vineyard Underground, Fritz welcomes soil scientist Dr. Jaclyn Fiola for an in-depth discussion on one of viticulture's most misunderstood nutrients — potassium. Drawing from her recent research and extensive fieldwork across the Mid-Atlantic region, Jaclyn breaks down how potassium behaves differently from other macronutrients, where it originates in the soil, and what makes its availability so complex for grape growers. Fritz and Jaclyn explore why vineyards in the Eastern U.S. often see discrepancies between soil and tissue potassium levels and how that can impact grape quality, vine health, and ultimately wine pH. They dive into the implications of both potassium deficiency and excess, emphasizing how water availability and soil mineralogy play pivotal roles in potassium uptake. Growers will also learn why standard soil tests may not give the full picture — and why plant tissue testing, particularly whole-leaf sampling at veraison, is often more reliable. Jaclyn shares the results of her groundbreaking study, highlighting best practices for sampling, how to interpret potassium levels accurately, and actionable steps for managing young versus mature vines. Whether you're planting a new vineyard or managing high potassium levels in an existing one, this episode equips you with the tools to make more informed nutrient management decisions. In this episode, you will hear: Potassium largely comes from soil parent material, not organic matter, making it harder to assess with traditional testing. Moisture-rich soils increase potassium availability, especially in non-irrigated Eastern vineyards. Whole-leaf tissue testing at veraison gives the most accurate indication of potassium status in grapevines. Too much potassium can raise wine pH, affecting mouthfeel, color, and shelf life. Before applying potassium fertilizers, understand your soil minerals and use targeted tissue testing to avoid overcorrection.

Why You Should Listen:  In this episode, you will learn about chronic kidney disease and how to address the Kidneydemic with Renology. About My Guest: My guest for this episode is Dr. Robin Rose.  Robin Rose, MD began a journey into holistic healing in her teens in the mid-sixties beginning with nutrition and botanical medicine and yoga and meditation.  Over the years her journey included time living in India and working with both village doctors and healers.  She became a health food chef and inspired many to change their habits.  Before long she was enrolled in an RN program and then a family nurse practitioner program.  Aware that the education wasn't complete, she attended University of Arizona College of Medicine; while also serving as a medical student board member for the American Holistic Medical Association.  During residency, she continued learning Chinese medicine, acupuncture, osteopathy, energy medicine, and herbal medicine.  Her main practice was in Ashland, Oregon where she served a community eager to integrate many healing modalities into the conventional setting, including innovative care in the hospital.  In the past decade after her own alarming health challenges with kidney cancer and advanced kidney disease, she became agile in regenerative medical approaches to kidney care.  She created a new specialty called Renology; a new concept of "Kidney Success" not Kidney Failure.  When she discovered peptides and especially bioregulator peptides, she led the brigade to new heights of seeing success in a field that had not embraced this kind of care.  Her recent book "Renology Peptides" is a nearly 800 page text on how to achieve this renewal of health.  Her current intention is to raise awareness of the role of kidney in wellbeing and how we can all celebrate this success.  Key Takeaways: What is the purpose of the kidneys? What symptoms are observed in chronic kidney disease? Is kidney disease a catabolic process? Is kidney disease genetic or epigenetic? What are the stages of kidney disease? What are the best tests and lab markers? What might elevations or phosphorous or potassium suggest? What is the kidney-gut axis? What is the role of endothelial health in kidney disease? What role do the mitochondria play?  How do infections and environmental toxicants contribute to kidney disease? What is the role of oxalates in kidney health? How might carbon dioxide guide treatment? Does cellular senescence play a role? What is the connection between the kidneys and the teeth? How do the limbic system and mental/emotional health impact the kidneys? What treatment intervention warrant exploration? Where do dialysis and transplantation come into the discussion? What role might peptides and peptide bioregulators play?

In my journey as a podcast host and wellness author, few experts have shaped my understanding as profoundly as Dr. James DiNicolantonio. His groundbreaking work on minerals, particularly sodium, magnesium, and potassium, has become foundational as I craft my 40th book, “Belly Goes First”, a powerful new approach to erasing hunger, reversing belly fat, and promoting lifelong wellness. Alongside previous conversations with Dr. Jason Fung and Robb Wolf, these four interviews with Dr. James represent some of the most significant recordings I've made since launching this podcast. Today, I'm thrilled to share this special “super series,” bringing together all four enlightening discussions dating back to our very first meeting in 2018, where Dr. James initially opened my eyes to the transformative power of minerals. These insights have also become the scientific cornerstone for my passion project and life's opus, Zero Hunger Water. Please note that the first interview includes video, while the remaining three are audio-only but just as impactful—turn on captions for additional clarity. This special episode gives you the science, practical tools, and inspiration to not only conquer hunger forever but also radically improve athletic performance, longevity, and overall health.Episode Chapters & Highlights00:00 Welcome & Introduction02:13 Interview 1: Dr. James on Unleashing the Power of Salt to Maximize Performance • 05:45 How Coffee Depletes Sodium (Caffeine & Salt Loss) • 08:47 Salt Preloading for Better Athletic Performance • 09:26 Salt vs. Sugar Addiction & Cravings Control • 28:30 Importance of Magnesium, Potassium, and Glycine in Hydration • 29:26 Optimal Protein Intake for Muscle Growth and Recovery • 36:00 Boosting Blood Volume: The Secret to Energy & Endurance44:44 Interview 2: Dr. James on the Powerful Health Secrets of Minerals • 46:24 Breaking Free from Sugar & Carb Cravings with Sodium • 53:27 Solving “Salt Sensitivity” by Reducing Refined Carbs • 55:01 Salt and Blood Pressure: The Carb Connection • 1:02:11 Understanding Electrolytes: Sodium, Magnesium, Potassium • 1:03:28 Dr. James's Recommended Mineral-Rich Water • 1:10:00 The Critical Role of Magnesium in Cellular Energy (ATP)01:33:53 Interview 3: Dr. James on a Deep Dive Into Weight Loss with Salt • 1:34:33 How Salt Regulates Hunger & Fat Storage Hormones • 1:35:37 Reducing Sugar Addiction Through Proper Salt Intake • 1:36:27 “Zero Hunger Water” – A Powerful Appetite Suppressant • 1:37:10 Historical Significance of Salt in Human Diet • 2:01:00 Fasting & Salt: Clearing up Common Myths • 2:02:30 How Salt Supports Autophagy and Immunity During Fasting02:21:51 Interview 4: Dr. James on Why Sodium Will Give You Radical Control of Your Health • 2:24:50 The Origin Story Behind “The Salt Fix” • 2:26:36 How Experts Misunderstood and Demonized Salt • 2:50:26 The Stress Response Triggered by Low Salt Diets • 2:51:56 Finding the Optimal Salt Intake (3–5 grams daily) • 2:57:28 The Surprising Link Between Salt Intake and Longevity • 3:00:00 Practical Recommendations for Ideal Sodium Consumption

Story at-a-glance New research confirms that the sodium-potassium ratio, not just sodium alone, is essential for blood pressure regulation. Increased potassium intake significantly lowers blood pressure, even when sodium remains high Potassium lowers blood pressure by helping your body get rid of excess sodium, activating early kidney responses, and reducing hormones that raise blood pressure Studies have also challenged universal salt restriction guidelines and showed that there's no clear benefit to cutting salt below 5 grams a day. This has led European guidelines to withdraw blanket sodium limits Most Americans eat almost twice as much sodium as potassium, even though it's recommended to eat five times more potassium than sodium. This is mostly because processed foods make up 70% of sodium intake For optimal blood pressure management, aim for about 3,500 milligrams (mg) of sodium daily from natural sources, as well as 3,400 to 5,000 mg of potassium from whole foods like spinach, beet greens, and oranges

Today we're tackling one of the biggest myths in modern nutrition: the idea that we need to restrict our daily sodium intake. For years, we've been led to believe that salt is the bad guy—linked to high blood pressure, heart disease, and a shorter lifespan. But that's just not the case. Today, we're diving into why salt isn't the villain it's made out to be—in fact, it's essential, especially if you follow a low-carb, ketogenic, or Paleo diet, or if you're using popular GLP-1 medications like semaglutide. We'll also spotlight a product that's getting it right: LMNT, an electrolyte drink mix that skips the sugar and delivers the salt your body actually needs. Stick around—this episode might just change how you think about hydration for good. The Salt Myth Let's start with where the myth came from. Americans average around 3,400 mg (3.4 grams) of sodium a day, but the FDA is doubling down, pushing us to cut back to under 2,300 mg (2.4 grams).  It's the same old anti-salt message—but is less really always better? They claim this will save hundreds of thousands of lives by reducing heart disease risk. Sounds noble—until you actually look at the data. Turns out, their case is built on: Cherry-picked epidemiology Exaggerated assumptions And some serious logical leaps Let's start with one of the largest global studies we have: The Intersalt Study, which looked at over 10,000 people across 48 populations. This study showed that there is no correlation between salt intake and blood pressure. In fact, the population with the highest salt intake had lower average blood pressure than the population with the least. Or take the Framingham Offspring Study, which found that people consuming under 2.5 grams of sodium per day actually had higher blood pressure than those consuming more. Still not convinced? A systematic review of the 2020 Cochrane Collaboration found that sodium restriction had virtually no meaningful impact on blood pressure in healthy people—and more consistent negative side effects than benefits. And here's the kicker: when the FDA says cutting sodium could save “500,000 lives,” that estimate is based not on sodium studies, but on data from hypertension drug trials. They essentially said: “Hey, these blood pressure meds work. So sodium restriction must work too.” That's not science. Now, does salt affect everyone the same? Of course not. People with chronic kidney disease or extreme hypertension might benefit from some restriction. But for the average person eating real food, staying active, or following a low-carb or GLP-1-supported lifestyle, salt is not the issue. You know what is? Sugar. A whole other podcast discussion we can have at a later date. *Salt and Heart Health If low-sodium diets were actually good for your heart, we'd expect to see that show up clearly in the research, right? But... we don't.  There was a major study published in JAMA back in 2011. Researchers looked at nearly 29,000 people with high risk for heart disease and tracked how much sodium they were consuming. And get this—the lowest risk of heart attacks, strokes, and cardiovascular death wasn't in the low-sodium group. It was in the moderate sodium group—those eating between 4 to 6 grams per day. People eating less than that? They actually had a 19% higher risk of dying from cardiovascular causes. And that's not a fluke. A 2018 review—also in JAMA—found little to no solid evidence that cutting salt intake improves heart failure outcomes either. I also want to touch on blood pressure and salt. When you don't get enough sodium, your body freaks out a bit. It ramps up hormones like aldosterone and renin to hold onto what little salt you have—but those same hormones also raise your blood pressure. Wild, right? Cutting salt can actually backfire for some people. And furthermore — your bones act as a backup sodium reservoir. So when you're running low, your body pulls sodium from your bones, along with calcium and magnesium, which over time can negatively affect bone health. Then come the symptoms: low energy, headaches, cramps, fatigue, even insomnia. If you're eating clean but feel like garbage, chances are you're not getting enough salt. Now to be clear, I'm not saying go eat or drink an unlimited amount of salt. Too much sodium isn't great either. But for most people—especially if you're active or following a low-carb or ketogenic lifestyle—the sweet spot is usually somewhere around 4 to 6 grams per day. That's just the baseline for feeling and functioning well.   *The Real Connection Between Salt and Hydration  Let's talk about hydration. It's not just about water. You've probably heard that you need eight glasses of water a day—but here's the thing: that's way too generic. Everyone's needs are different depending on your body weight, activity level, and environment.  A much better starting point would be to try drinking about half your body weight in ounces of water per day—so if you weigh 160 pounds, shoot for around 80 ounces. And if you're working out, sweating a lot, or living in a hot climate, you'll need even more to stay properly hydrated. Also what most people miss is that without enough sodium, your body can't retain that water effectively. Ever felt more dehydrated after chugging a bunch of water? That's what happens when you flush out electrolytes—especially sodium—without replenishing them. Sodium helps regulate: Fluid balance Muscle contractions Nerve function Blood volume and pressure If you're sweating, fasting, or simply cutting carbs, you're losing more salt than you think. And your body doesn't store sodium—so it needs to be replenished daily. Why Low-Carb and GLP-1 Users Need More Sodium If you're on a low-carb, Paleo, or keto diet, or using medications like semaglutide for weight loss, the bottom line is you need more sodium. When you reduce your carb intake, your insulin levels drop—and that's great for fat loss. But lower insulin also signals your kidneys to excrete more sodium. That's why people transitioning to low-carb often feel fatigued, get muscle cramps, or experience the dreaded “keto flu.” It's not carb withdrawal—it's sodium depletion. And with GLP-1 medications like semaglutide or tirzepatide, there's an added twist: appetite drops dramatically, which means many people aren't eating enough food to maintain electrolyte balance. Less food, fewer nutrients—including salt. If you're using these tools and feeling dizzy, nauseous, or weak, you may not be getting enough sodium. LMNT  Now let's talk solutions. One of the products that's completely flipped the hydration conversation is LMNT—that's L-M-N-T. It's an electrolyte drink mix developed by health experts and athletes who realized that most so-called hydration drinks were full of sugar and low on actual electrolytes. Each LMNT packet contains: 1000 mg of sodium 200 mg of potassium 60 mg of magnesium Potassium teams up with sodium to keep your cells working properly—it helps your nerves fire and your muscles move. Magnesium's like a multitasker for your body: it helps you make energy, repair DNA, build muscle, and even get better sleep.  How Much Salt Do You Actually Need? So, how much sodium is right for you? It varies, but here's a basic framework: The average low-carb or active adult likely needs 4,000–6,000 mg per day. If you're sweating a lot or fasting, that number can go even higher. And if you're on GLP-1 meds, make sure you're intentionally adding electrolytes to your day. Lastly, let's talk about something you'll see in a lot of hydration powders and supplements—like Liquid I.V.—and that's vitamin B12. Sounds good, right? But here's the thing: the form they use is usually something called cyanocobalamin. Now, yeah, it's technically B12, but it's not the best kind. It's synthetic, your body actually has to convert it into usable forms—like methylcobalamin—and not everyone does that well, especially if you've got liver issues or certain genetic mutations (e.g., MTHFR mutation). Also, Liquid I.V. contains around 536–584 mg of sodium per serving, depending on the flavor, which is about half the amount of sodium found in LMNT. While it still supports hydration, LMNT's higher sodium content is better suited for those needing more electrolytes, like on low-carb diets or during intense physical activity. So the next time someone tells you to “watch your salt,” consider asking: Why? If you're eating a whole-food diet, staying active, or managing your weight with GLP-1 meds, salt may be the very thing you're missing. Hydration isn't just about water—it's about electrolyte balance. And when you get it right, your energy, cognition, and performance all go up. Thank you for listening to The Peptide Podcast.

Combine one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with 8 ounces of water and drink this after a high-carb meal. 3. Berberine, NAC, and other supplementsBerberine is considered a natural Metformin without the side effects. You can pair berberine with NAC or alpha lipoic acid for more natural blood sugar support. Excess carbs deplete vitamin B1, so if you have a cheat meal or fall off the wagon with carbohydrates, increase vitamin B1.4. Post-meal walkA 25 to 30-minute post-meal walk can help burn off excess sugar so that it is not converted into cholesterol or stored as fat. 5. Potassium and magnesiumPotassium is necessary for glucose storage in the liver and the muscles. It also helps move glucose into your cells. Magnesium is critical for the cells that produce insulin. Nearly every diabetic is deficient in magnesium!6. Ketone supplements Providing the brain with ketones supports healthy blood sugar in the brain, which can improve cognitive function and decrease brain fog. 7. Saltwater Sodium helps prevent stress-induced blood sugar spikes. Adding more salt to your last meal or adding it to a glass of water can improve sleep and calm your mood.Dry fasting can lower blood sugar faster than anything else! Dry fasting means you're not drinking water or eating food. When you're dry fasting, your body increases the hormone glucagon, which helps to lower blood sugar. Growth hormone and antioxidants also increase, and your body quickly switches to fat-burning.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

Apply these healthy habits today for your best health yet!1. Only eat when you're hungry. 2. Only drink when you're thirsty.Over-consuming liquid dilutes electrolytes, especially sodium, which can cause dehydration.3. Carbonated water is more hydrating. 4. Find the diet that works best for you.5. Practice intermittent fasting.Intermittent fasting allows your body to recycle damaged proteins, create new tissues, clean up pathogens, and eliminate bacteria, viruses, and mold. 6. Stop snacking between meals. Snacking keeps insulin high. Stopping snacking can significantly improve your health, even if you don't change your diet.7. Lower your carb intake. The most important thing to look at when reading a label is the carbohydrates. You should consume no more than 30 grams of carbohydrates per day.8. Request a fasting insulin test. A fasting insulin test can help you prevent diabetes before it becomes a problem. 9. Test your vitamin D levels.You need at least 10,000 to 20,000 IU of vitamin D per day. Magnesium is vital for proper vitamin D function. 10. Get plenty of potassium.You need 4700 mg of potassium per day. Potassium calms the nervous system, lowers blood pressure, and increases energy.11. Avoid synthetic vitamins and look for high-quality, nutrient-dense supplements. 12. Red meat is the most nutrient-dense protein, vital for health and well-being, energy levels, and healthy blood sugars.13. Counter past antibiotic use with a homemade probiotic mixture to help restore your gut microbiota. 14. Overtraining can deplete your testosterone. Rest is vital to achieve muscle growth and to keep your hormones balanced.15. Take vitamin B1 if you stray from your healthy diet. 16. Choose a natural source like beef liver or liver supplements if you need more iron. 17. Focus on exercise for age-related atrophy.18. Take 50,000 to 100,000 IU of vitamin D before surgery.19. Invest in a good water filter to remove forever chemicals from your drinking water.

Today, we're going to talk about the best drinks for diabetes management and prevention to support healthy blood sugar as you sleep. These 7 drinks help improve sleep quality by preventing troublesome issues like night waking and nighttime urination.Blood sugar often decreases at night, increasing cortisol, which increases blood sugar levels. Poor sleep can also cause blood sugar issues, and frequent urination at night can contribute to this problem.Here are 7 nighttime drinks to help stabilize blood sugar levels throughout the night. Try these drinks to support healthy blood sugar levels and improve sleep. 1. Apple cider vinegar with cinnamonAdd one to two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar with a pinch of cinnamon to a glass of water for the perfect blood sugar-balancing drink.2. Chamomile teaChamomile tea lowers cortisol and stabilizes blood sugar by directly supporting the cells in the pancreas.3. Golden milkCombine turmeric and ginger with milk to make a delicious blood sugar-balancing latte. 4. Aloe vera juiceAloe vera is known to help with digestion and ulcers and can be applied topically to wounds, but it also potently affects the cells that make insulin.5. Berberine teaThis herb is close in effectiveness to Metformin, just without the side effects!6. Electrolyte drinks (without sugar)Potassium and magnesium are vital for healthy blood sugar levels. Magnesium can significantly decrease cortisol, while potassium can reduce blood sugar and is essential for glucose storage in the liver and the muscles. Most people are not getting enough potassium!7. Salt in waterSodium is an important electrolyte that helps reduce blood sugar and cortisol. Add it to water or your electrolyte drinks to help increase hydration. It also supports the adrenal glands, nerves, and muscles.

These dangerous ingredients are found in the #1 most dangerous meal. Can you guess what it is?1. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are byproducts created when you cook, char, or smoke something. Cooking at high temperatures creates these compounds, which have the potential to alter or mutate your DNA and can trigger cancer of the stomach or colon.2. When you combine sugar with protein, you create AGEs (advanced glycation end products). These sticky proteins found in foods like barbequed meat can cause advanced aging, inflammation, diabetes, Alzheimer's, and other chronic diseases. 3. Sodium nitrate is found in processed meat like bacon and ham. When heated, it turns into a carcinogen, which can trigger cancer.4. Residue from the weed killer Roundup Ready is often found in GMO foods such as soy, corn, canola, and cottonseed. Roundup Ready contains the ingredient glyphosate, which is considered a carcinogen by the World Health Organization. Glyphosate also disrupts the microbiome.5. Caramel coloring, which is used in barbeque sauces and sodas, produces a carcinogenic byproduct called 4-MEI. 6. Aluminum can leach into the brain, increasing your risk for Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases. 7. Potassium bromate is found in barbeque sauces and is often used to increase fluffiness in bread products. This ingredient has been banned in 60 countries, but it's not banned in the U.S.The most dangerous meal includes barbequed meat that's been grilled, covered in barbeque sauce, and typically cooked on or covered with aluminum foil. Many types of meat served at barbeques contain nitrates and are often wrapped in a bun or served with bread. This meal is usually served with a soda in an aluminum can or plastic bottle and served on a styrofoam plate.

When Monique was 47 years old, her 2 ½ year old daughter was diagnosed with an oxalate problem. At that time, Monique had never heard the word “oxalate” before! When she then decided to eat a low oxalate diet herself to model it for her child, she quickly discovered that lower dietary oxalate didn't just help her daughter - it helped her! This led to Monique diving into learning more about oxalate through the Trying Low Oxalates support group, which was the only place to get good information at that time. She couldn't help but think: what if it was possible that she had been dealing with oxalate for decades and had never been diagnosed? And if that had happened to her, could it be happening to others? This ultimately led to a complete career change; in her 50's Monique went back to college to study nutrition. Now a nutritionist, she also brings years of previous business experience as a problem solver, in addition to a Master's degree in Library and Information Science, to her passion for helping people regain their health; she dives into the research to read and learn and connect the dots regarding how dietary oxalate could be impacting our health in ways we might never have imagined. She also eats a carnivore diet and has never felt better.

Most Americans think painting brick is as simple as grabbing a bucket of latex or oil-based paint, but this common approach can wreak havoc on your home–and is uglier to boot. In this episode, I sit down with Matt Plechan, the founder of Mineral Stains.  We dive deep into the art and science of finishing brick with mineral stains like limewash, potassium silicate and sol silicate.  These centuries-old techniques are not only more durable and beautiful but also allow your brick to breathe, preventing costly damage.  I talk to many people who go to Europe, see a beautiful color, and try to color match it at home on stucco or masonry. It doesn't turn out the same.  Why? It's not the same paint! But it can be.  If you are thinking about painting masonry, listen to this episode! And while there are other US based suppliers, Matt at Mineral Stains is an excellent source who manufactures in the US and will help you find the right product for your project! TAKEAWAYS Latex acrylic paints are unsuitable for masonry, while mineral stains bond with masonry for enhanced durability and a natural aesthetic. Potassium silicate offers better longevity than lime wash, while sole silicate works effectively on previously painted or coated surfaces. Mineral stains are eco-friendly, made from natural pigments, and provide vibrant, non-toxic finishes with a timeless, breathable quality.

Please note the recording was before the new NASEM model was released. However, there is still a lot of good information from Dr. Weiss beyond those recommendations. This Real Science Exchange podcast episode was recorded during a webinar from Balchem's Real Science Lecture Series. You can find it at balchem.com/realscience.Most ration formulation software uses the 2001 NRC mineral equations. The basic concept of the 2001 NRC mineral requirements is to feed enough absorbable minerals to maintain adequate labile body stores and fluid concentrations. Minerals are lost each day via excretion in feces and urine, milk production, and incorporation into tissues or the fetus in the case of growing or pregnant animals. We have decent data to predict mineral concentrations of milk, growth, and the fetus; however, the endogenous loss in feces is much harder to capture. Absorption coefficients (AC) for most minerals are exceedingly difficult to measure. (0:29)The NRC requirements are the means of several experiments. Feeding to the mean results in half the cows being fed adequately or in excess, and half are not fed enough. In human nutrition, recommended daily allowances for vitamins and minerals are calculated as the mean plus two standard deviations, which statistically meets the requirement for 97% of the population. Since the standard deviation of the requirement is hard to acquire, human nutrition uses the same standard deviation for energy metabolism, around 20%. Dr. Weiss feels this is a reasonable safety factor for minerals for animals as well. He recommends feeding about 1.2 times the NRC requirement while keeping an eye on the maximum tolerable limit for the mineral in question. (4:59)How do we measure absorption? We measure the minerals in the diet, we apply AC, and we get grams or milligrams of absorbed minerals available for the animal to use. Dr. Weiss details some of the complex methodology involved in trying to obtain AC. Feces contain not only unabsorbed dietary minerals but also endogenous/metabolic minerals (e.g., intestinal cells, enzymes, etc.) and homeostatic excretion of minerals (e.g., dumping excess minerals). In the 2001 NRC, the endogenous fecal for almost every mineral is a function of body weight, which is incorrect. It should be a function of dry matter intake. (8:40)Endogenous fecal losses can also be measured using stable or radioactive isotopes. This method is extremely expensive and if radioactive isotopes are used, management of radioactive waste becomes an issue. Thus, most of the AC for trace minerals that used these methods are 50-60 years old. (15:33)Dr. Weiss details some of the issues with calcium requirements in the 2001 NRC leading to overestimation of calcium absorption for many calcium sources and overestimation of the maintenance requirement due to endogenous fecal being calculated using body weight. Organic and inorganic phosphorus have different AC, so partitioning between organic and inorganic will give a more accurate estimate of the requirement. (16:33)Potassium has a linear antagonistic effect on magnesium. You can feed more magnesium to overcome this antagonism, but you won't ever eliminate it. If you feed a few percent added fat as long-chain fatty acids, Dr. Weiss recommends feeding 10-20% more magnesium to account for soap formation in the rumen. (19:17)It's much more difficult to measure AC for trace minerals due to multiple antagonists, interactions among different minerals, and regulated absorption. In addition, AC for trace minerals is very low, which means a small change in the AC can have a huge impact on diet formulation. All feeds in the NRC system have the same AC for each trace mineral and we know that's not right.  (25:39)Dr. Weiss gives an overview of different trace mineral antagonisms and interactions and details his approach to formulation if he has absorption data for a particular ingredient. He also gives his estimates of revised AC for several minerals. (28:07)In summary, the factorial NRC approach only fits 50% of the population. Feeding an extra 10-20% above the NRC requirement includes about 97% of the population. We need to continue to account for more sources of variation in AC. Interactions need to be top of mind when considering mineral requirements and diet formulation. (37:39)Dr. Weiss takes a series of questions from the webinar audience.

Today, we're going to talk about kidney health. A big myth is that potassium is bad for the kidneys, but this isn't true! Our bodies require 4700 mg of potassium each day. The only time you'd want to avoid potassium is if you have advanced-stage kidney disease. Potassium protects kidney health in several ways. It helps lower high blood pressure, which damages the kidneys and protects against kidney stones. Too much sodium can be hard on the kidneys, but the remedy is more potassium. Many factors can contribute to kidney damage, including the following: •High sugar consumption •Alcohol •NSAIDs •Certain medications •Pesticides •Heavy metals •Food dyes •Phosphorus from soda A proper diet with adequate vitamin D, potassium, and magnesium can significantly improve kidney health. The following foods protect the kidneys from damage and support kidney health: 1. Vegetables: asparagus, celery, bell peppers, cabbage, cauliflower, garlic 2. Magnesium-rich foods: pumpkin seeds, leafy greens, avocadoes, magnesium glycinate 3. Probiotic-foods: kefir, yogurt, sauerkraut, kimchi 4. Moderate amounts of high-quality protein 5. High-antioxidant foods: strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, beets 6. Quercetin: onions 7. Extra virgin olive oil Consuming tea is a great way to stay hydrated and support kidney health. Polyphenols found in tea are very beneficial for the kidney. Green, nettle, dandelion, turmeric, and decaffeinated black tea are all great options. Frequent eating can overtax the kidneys' filtration system. A low-carb diet and intermittent fasting are very beneficial for kidney health. Intermittent fasting can decrease the stress on the kidneys and significantly reduce insulin. Too much insulin can be damaging to the kidneys.

In this episode, Ben Azadi explores the crucial role of metabolism in transforming food into energy, essential for burning fat and overall well-being. He discusses the harmful effects of vegetable oils, which are more detrimental than sugar and smoking, and share a special drink recipe to help eliminate these bad fats. Dr. Cate Shanahan joins to explain how vegetable oils cause inflammation and chronic disease. Additionally, Ben details the unhealthy industrial process of making canola oil. He encourages listeners to make informed dietary choices for better metabolic health. PLEASE NOTE: The best option is to avoid these damaged fats as much as possible! Eating an animal based diet focused on saturated fat and monounsaturated fat combined with fasting and exercise is the BEST way to remove these bad fats from your body. The Special Drink for Fat Elimination To combat the negative effects of harmful fats, Ben introduces a special drink designed to help eliminate them from the body. He outlines the ingredients and their specific benefits: Ingredients and Benefits: Psyllium Husk: A soluble fiber that forms a gel-like substance in the digestive tract, helping to bind to bile acids and dietary fats, promoting their excretion. Flax Seeds: Act as a mild laxative due to their fiber content, aiding in smoother bowel movements. Ground flax seeds release mucilage, which lubricates the intestines and facilitates fat excretion. Calcium and Magnesium: These minerals play a crucial role in binding to fatty acids and bile salts in the intestines, forming insoluble compounds that the body cannot absorb. This process helps lower bad cholesterol levels and supports weight management. Recipe: Mix psyllium husk, flax seeds, and a calcium-magnesium powder in water. Consume this drink first thing in the morning to maximize its benefits.
