    Author Vicky Hachey

    Could the missing link in your energy, mood, digestion—and even hormone balance—be a drop away?

    In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Dr. Starkey, educator at Trace Minerals, and Ariadne Lemire, director of sales for Canada. Together, they unpack the essential role trace minerals play in everything from daily energy to skin health, digestion, and even emotional regulation.

    With over 50 years of research behind their hero product, ConcenTrace, this conversation brings minerals back to the spotlight—and shows you how to integrate them effortlessly into your wellness routine.

    We explore:
    ⚡ Why trace minerals are critical co-factors in every body function—from hormones to hydration
    💧 How modern water filtration and depleted soil are stripping minerals from our lives
    🌿 The surprising impact of remineralized water on energy, pH, and cellular conductivity
    🧠 What symptoms like brain fog, brittle nails, cramps, or fatigue might be trying to tell you
    🧴 A simple daily ritual: how to use ConcenTrace drops (and how much your body actually needs)
    🧪 Live demo: how one drop lights a bulb—and what that says about your body’s electric charge
    🫶 Why consistency is everything—and what happened when Ariadne cleared her eczema naturally
    🐶 Bonus: Why you can (and should) give trace minerals to your kids, pets, and plants

    Whether you’re dealing with chronic fatigue, PMS, digestive distress, or just want to support your body more intentionally—this episode will remind you that sometimes, healing starts with the basics.
