My question to you- do you know of any synergy combinations of whole foods for optimal calcium and trace mineral metabolizing?
This would be so good for women whom are always on the go like myself and clients that I work with in my Pilates studio.
My favorite for calcium and trace minerals is the plant stinging nettle. It grows locally and is probably the most nutritious local plant! The young spring shoots can be steamed like spinach or made into a tea, and dried to use the rest of the year in tea or tincture form. It is truly an amazing plant! I just planted a patch in my backyard
