I offer a few valuable mini courses through my sister website, Minerals for Migraines, geared towards people wanting additional support in healing from mineral imbalances caused by our medical system.
Nutritional Support for Women on Birth Control and the Copper IUD
Two years ago, at the Temple of Belonging women’s gathering, I had the privilege of teaching a live class about how hormonal birth control and the copper IUD affect a woman’s nutritional status. Specifically, hormonal birth control and the copper IUD both raise copper, at the expense of a host of other minerals and vitamins that copper antagonizes, all of which are critical for that woman’s physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.
Since the vast majority of women are not given this information when they are put on these forms of birth control, they can and do end up experiencing a wide range of “side-effects” – that don’t happen on the side. At the same time, many of these “side-effects” occur gradually, so the woman may not attribute the problem to the birth control, and can spend years seeking help for the mystery illness that can manifest as a result. These “side effects” could be easily mitigated by replenishing these nutrients.
By understanding mineral dynamics, we can understand the differences in response between women on hormonal birth control and the copper IUD. I hope you find this information useful. Please pass this along to anyone you may know who may benefit from this!
