Nutrient Excess Toxicity
About Nutrient Excess Toxicity
More isn't always better, and many people come to DrTalks wondering whether their supplements or diet are working against them. Fatigue, thyroid problems linked to too much iodine, iron overload, blood pressure and salt, kidney worries, cravings, and supplement routines that leave you feeling worse are all things these experts see every day. These talks also go past the pill bottle. Getting too much of one thing often sits beside not getting enough of another, and it ties into blood sugar, inflammation, oxidative stress, gut health and your genes. You'll find conversations on the iodine paradox, hemochromatosis, mineral mistakes in menopause, salt and heart health, and how to choose a quality supplement. Doctors, dietitians and functional medicine practitioners explain what's actually going on, which tests are worth asking your provider about, from nutrient levels and thyroid panels to genetic and nutrigenomic testing, and what helps, from food-first nutrition and balanced minerals to personalized supplements and better food sourcing.
