Postpartum depression is often a biochemical depletion state.

Pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding pull heavily from mom — especially minerals that regulate:
• mood
• stress response
• thyroid function
• neurotransmitters
• nervous system balance

The most common postpartum depletions seen in studies:
→ Vitamin D
→ Iron
→ Zinc
→ Magnesium
→ Iodine
→ B12 & Folate
And here’s the part no one tells you is that deficiencies don’t always show up on standard labs

⚖️ Supplementing blindly can worsen imbalances
Low iron can look like depression.
Low zinc can feel like anxiety and overwhelm.
Low magnesium can keep your nervous system stuck in fight-or-flight.
Iodine and B12 issues can quietly drive thyroid-related mood symptoms.
This is why I don’t guess.

✨ Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) shows mineral patterns at the tissue level — where postpartum depletion actually lives.
It helps us see:
• stress response patterns
• mineral burn rate
• thyroid stress indicators
• nutrient imbalances driving mood + fatigue
Because healing postpartum isn’t about “pushing through.”
It’s about restoring what your body gave away.

How would you treat the fish?

Think about it, medicating the fish if the water is dirty, maybe filled with bacteria, toxins, is the fish going to get any better for a significant amount of time? Or what happens if the water continues getting more dirty, or the medication is less effective? Maybe even more health issues arise?

Or treat the TERRAIN, aka clean the tank first, then the fish has a clean environment to heal.

Remove the interference that’s inhibiting health improvements aka mineral imbalances, heavy metals which inevitably leads to parasite detox, mold detoxification, dental infections, then the body has a cleaner slate to improve naturally before trying any interventions for long lasting health.

Thoughts on this?

But none of this is medical advice 😉

Geo-engineering or new type of clouds, what do you think?

Cloud seeding is full of metals like aluminum, cadmium, lead, which are now in our air and in our water supply…

Detoxing isn’t a want to have now, it’s a need to have to support the body

A cup of raw milk a day keeps the doctor away… but that’s not medical advice 😉

I’m seeing this test results so often with clients that I felt I had to share… 👇🏼

If you are struggling with severe fatigue, weight, loss, resistance, low hormones, and you’ve tried all the bloodwork, all the stool test, all the supplements, and NOTHING is working—-

you truly may need to get an HTMA test to see this root cause that NO ONE‘s talking about.

It’s called a 4 Lows Mineral Pattern..

And I’m seeing it in so many clients that have been looking for answers and not found any.

When I see this pattern, it is an extreme burnout pattern that no fancy powder or supplement is going to fix. It takes strategy around nutrition, lifestyle, changes, detoxification strategies, and very specific formulation of minerals to bring someone out of this pattern And help support their hormones functioning optimally and increasing their energy at the cellular level. and this type of healing takes time!



If this sounds like you, comment “4 LOWS” below and I’ll send over some more details about this mineral pattern

If I were planning for pregnancy,
I wouldn’t start with loads of supplements 👀

I’d start by making sure my body felt safe.

Fertility isn’t just about estrogen, progesterone, or ovulation strips —
it’s about whether your nervous system, metabolism, and mineral reserves are prepared to support new life.

Here’s what I see most often ⤵️
• blood sugar dysregulation
• hidden mineral depletion
• chronic stress signals the body hasn’t resolved

And no amount of “doing more” fixes that.

At Root Cause Method Wellness, we focus on building foundations first like circadian health, supporting the nervous system and digestion, balancing blood sugar, so the body doesn’t have to fight itself to conceive.

🚨 Adrenal Stress isn’t just “feeling stressed.”
On an HTMA, very high sodium is a major red flag for an overactive fight-or-flight response.

Even sodium levels above 30 mg% suggest adrenal strain—while levels over 100 mg% point to extreme adrenal stress.

This pattern is driven by excess aldosterone, a hormone that causes sodium and water retention while throwing off other minerals like calcium and magnesium. Over time, this can impact blood sugar, inflammation, mood, energy, and even bone health.
Symptoms can include:
• Anxiety & irritability
• Inflammation & pain
• Blood sugar dysregulation
• Allergies & hyperactivity
• Muscle tension & cramps
👉 This is why mineral testing matters.
👉 This is why stress is a physiological issue, not a mindset problem.
If your body is stuck in survival mode, no amount of willpower will fix it.

When zinc is low, copper often becomes dominant — and that matters more than most parents realize.

According to Dr. Paul Eck’s HTMA work, low zinc allows copper to accumulate, overstimulating the nervous system and increasing cravings for quick-energy foods like fruit and sugar. At the same time, digestion and taste perception suffer, making protein and savory foods harder to tolerate.

This is why many kids gravitate toward sweet foods and avoid balanced meals — it’s not defiance, it’s biochemistry.

Bloodwork tells part of the story.
HTMA helps fill in the gaps.

Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis offers a cellular-level look at mineral patterns and heavy metals stored in the tissues—making it a powerful complement to traditional labs.
