Valence: blending chelates with HTMA ratios

It's called mineral balancing for a reason because throwing random electrolytes into your body without a roadmap can actually make you feel worse.

Today, I'm sitting down with Matthew Coffman, founder of Valence Nutraceuticals, to talk about why your mineral strategy needs a serious upgrade.

Matthew shares his personal story of growing up in Flint, Michigan, during the lead crisis, how improper mercury filling removal contributed to his addiction struggles, and why he believes heavy metal toxicity is the cause of so many cases of anxiety, depression, and substance abuse.

We explore the groundbreaking work of Dr. Hans Nieper (1928-1998), and how his mineral chelates, combined with Dr. Paul Eck's ratios, are creating faster detox results than traditional protocols.

He also explains why calcium has been unfairly demonized, the connection between glyphosate, manganese, and Lyme disease, and why you can no longer rely on food alone to get the minerals you need.

"Minerals work in a system, and they have to be treated as such because supplementing one individual mineral without any idea of where your HTMA is (or any kind of data) can cause imbalances." ~ Matthew Coffman
