Nooo not nutritionalist, dietician. There’s a huge difference, but that’s great you found a doc like that. Sorry for harassing your post. Trace minerals are a hugeeeee interest of mine and I got a little too excited with unsolicited advice 😂

I am inviting unsolicited advice at this point. How much salt does my water need? How much potassium? Where does magnesium even come from? 😂

I heard Dr. Berg say to only drink water when you’re thirsty but that didn’t really help either

It’s so complicated. But based on my research, it has more to do with iron and copper. The magnesium, potassium, sodium, and whole food vitamin c are supposed to help regulate the malabsorption of iron into the liver through copper. So it’s not “too much” or “too little” iron, it’s how too much iron is being absorbed into the liver and trapped. Basically, copper helps regulate the iron and the trace minerals help regulate the copper 🤦‍♀️

No wonder those copper IUDs fuck up so many women lol

So if I take vitamin c and notice it’s making me irritable, do I take less of it or more?

Less baha. And I suggest orange juice and not actually supplement forms
