​ Elizabeth Yarnell speaks with Jill Norris, RN, of Eidon Ionic Minerals about how calcium, cholesterol, and arterial plaque can reflect hidden inflammation patterns. Jill shares her background in nursing, mineral balancing, and heavy metal detox, including the burnout and clinical experiences that led her away from hospital medicine. They discuss hair tissue mineral analysis, stress patterns, endocrine compensation, and why minerals and electrolytes may be more foundational than vitamins.
