Manage episode 481246606 series 1510077
This week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I’m joined by Morley Robbins, creator of the Root Cause Protocol and mineral metabolism expert, for a fascinating deep dive into how mineral imbalance affects your energy, hormones, and overall health.
In this episode, Morley shares why many people are dealing with hidden iron overload (not deficiency), how copper and magnesium play a critical role in hormone health and stress resilience, and what your lab results are really trying to tell you. If you're dealing with chronic fatigue, inflammation, or hormonal imbalances, this episode will help you connect the dots and take empowered steps toward healing.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Why most people are misdiagnosed with iron deficiency
- How iron overload contributes to fatigue, inflammation, and hormone issues
- The essential roles of copper and magnesium in cellular energy
- What your ferritin and ceruloplasmin levels actually mean
- How stress depletes minerals and drives chronic symptoms
- Safe ways to rebuild your mineral stores using the Root Cause Protocol

ABOUT GUEST:
Morley Robbins is the creator of the Root Cause Protocol and founder of the Magnesium Advocacy Group. Known as the “Magnesium Man,” Morley left a decades-long career in hospital administration after a personal healing experience led him to question everything he thought he knew about health. Since then, he’s become a passionate educator on mineral balance, performing thousands of consults and digging deep into the roles of magnesium, copper, and iron in chronic illness. Through his research and coaching, Morley helps people get to the root cause of fatigue, inflammation, and hormonal imbalances—one mineral at a time.
