I know what you're thinking, smart readers -- you think it's magnesium. But it's not! Put on your science geek caps for this interview, because biochemist and nutritionist Barton Scott will need your full attention to explain why traditional supplementation isn't working, why FOOD isn't even working (and can't work) to heal what's ailing us, and why each generation is going to get worse until we stop the problem. We discuss:* the best form of testing to improve health (and it doesn't even hurt!) * why getting our minerals in balance improves so many aspects of health* why our minerals are OUT of balance in the first place* how supplementing often doesn't help* how much more toxic our world is than a few hundred years ago :( * where some meat aversions come from for picky eaters, and why smoothies have a dark sideIt's a packed interview, so get ready to learn about your basic building blocks, and why they can't be ignored.
