Hello and welcome to the Wellness Mama podcast. I'm Katie from Wellnessmama.com and I am back for round two

with Dr. Carolyn Dean to talk about stabilized ions of minerals, what those are, how they trigger

healing enzymes in the body that repair and protect the body in various ways. The problems when we

don't get all of the minerals that we need or only get certain ones out of balance and how that can actually deplete others, how these ionic forms work differently within the body, and so much more.

And Dr. Carolyn Dean is absolutely incredible.

She's a wealth of knowledge with over 35 years of experience as an MD and a naturopath and the author of literally dozens of books on all of these

topics, including the book The Magnesium Miracle, among others. I will link to some of those in the show

notes, but I always learned so much from her even on her website. It was a true joy to learn from her

in person today. I know that you will learn a lot too, so let's jump in. Carolyn, welcome back.

Thank you for being here again.

Oh, thank you, Katie.

It's a pleasure.

It really is.

Well, if you guys missed it, I will link to our first episode together all about magnesium,

which, as you know, is one of my favorite topics for a very long time.

Dr. Carolyn gave such practical and helpful advice and understanding around that topic.

And in this episode, I'm excited to delve even deeper into understanding what stabilized ions

and minerals are and how they can be really uniquely supportive for so many aspects of our

health. And I feel like the perfect bridge between our last episode where we ended talking about the

end of one study of self that we all get to undertake is to briefly touch on your stance

when it comes to symptoms because I feel like we're very aligned here.

I've heard you say that symptoms are not your enemy.
