41: Summing Up Minerals
Remember learning about vitamins and minerals for the first time? Maybe it was fun and exciting or maybe it was overwhelming - or possibly both. Regardless of how you felt, there's a lot of them. And remembering all them isn't easy.  So I broke them up into two episodes - one on vitamins and one on minerals. In this episode, I cover the minerals - both the major and trace minerals.  Normally, you'd have a whole semester on micronutrients so this episode is a summary - a review.  This is what you'll learn in this episode: A review of the major minerals, electrolytes, and complications that happen when the levels are elevated or depleted A breakdown of the trace minerals - the role, food sources, deficiency, and toxicity symptoms Here's a glance at this episode:  [08:30] – Why elevated potassium levels need to be addressed and the dangers of elevated potassium levels [10:30] – Symptoms of hyponatremia and what I used to see in my patients when I worked in pediatrics [11:45] – A review of the symptoms of hypernatremia [13:35] – An overview of magnesium including hypomagnesemia and hypermagnesemia. [16:59] – Phosphorous, what it is, why it’s important, and where it likes to hang out in the body [20:17] – The role of calcium and phosphorous in the body and why these two go together – like buddies [22:37] – A quick review of refeeding syndrome and how the electrolytes reviewed in this episode are connected to refeeding syndrome [24:48] – What foods interfere with iron absorption [34:20] – The role of zinc especially for people in the clinical setting [38:38] – Why copper is monitored in people with cholestasis [47:29] – What’s up with Chromium? [48:39] – Fluoride, the tooth mineral [50:01] – Molybdenum - not only fun to say. You'll hear about a case study of a rare genetic condition involving molybdenum
