What if your chronic symptoms weren't random… but rooted in your mineral balance?

In this episode of the Pod of Inquiry, we sit down with biochemist Nick Dorsey, founder of Functional Chemistry, to explore a radically different lens on health — one that connects minerals, gut health, mitochondria, and the nervous system into a single, unified framework.

From inflammation and anxiety to fertility struggles and gut dysfunction, this conversation challenges conventional thinking and offers a systems-level approach to understanding why you feel the way you feel.

🧬 In this episode, we explore:

• The Four Pillars of Biology: nervous system, minerals, microbiome, and mitochondria
• Why mineral deficiencies may drive chronic inflammation
• How heavy metals like aluminum can replace essential minerals in your body
• The microbiome as a living ecosystem — and why killing bacteria isn't enough
• The truth about hair mineral testing and what it reveals about your health
• The connection between minerals, trauma, and emotional patterns
• Fertility challenges beyond hormones — and the role of immune stress
• A controversial look at aluminum, bees, and environmental exposure

⚠️ Why this matters:

Most health approaches focus on isolated symptoms. This episode introduces a root-cause framework that ties everything together — helping you understand the deeper imbalances driving chronic conditions.

🧠 Key takeaway:

Your body isn't broken — it's responding to imbalances. Fix the terrain, and the system can heal.
