In this follow-up to our deep-dive on mineral wisdom, Allison Mädl, FNTP and NTA educator, returns to share simple, ancestral-inspired strategies you can implement today to boost your mineral intake—and feel the difference.

From crafting nutrient-packed herbal infusions and embracing blackstrap molasses to unlocking the power of leafy greens, culinary herbs, and real sea salt, Allison breaks down the most practical ways to infuse your meals (and your life) with essential minerals.

Plus, we explore how digestion plays a critical role in mineral absorption, and why even the best foods won’t help if your gut can’t break them down.

You’ll learn:

• How to make a potent herbal infusion
• Why blackstrap molasses is a forgotten mineral-rich superfood
• Which wild greens and veggie tops to eat for hidden mineral boosts
• The truth about culinary herbs and sea salt as daily mineral sources
• How to optimize digestion for better mineral absorption
