The Period Whisperer Podcast with Bria Gadd | Episode 364

In this episode, I sit down with functional health educator and author Caroline Allen to uncover one of the most overlooked foundations of midlife vitality: mineral replenishment.

SUMMARY

After years of doing “everything right” and still feeling burnt out, anxious, and depleted, Caroline discovered that mineral deficiency—not willpower, not mindset, not workouts—was the hidden root cause behind her symptoms.

Now she’s on a mission to help women understand why minerals matter so deeply in perimenopause, how our modern world has stripped them from our food and water, and how to safely replenish them to restore energy, sleep, hormones, mood, and resilience.
