Ever wondered how something as simple as a mineral imbalance could affect your mental health? In this eye-opening episode of 'The Biology of Trauma', Dr. Aimie Apigian sits down with William Walsh to explore the hidden dangers of copper excess. They dive into how elevated copper levels can lead to postpartum depression, irritability, and even violent tendencies in children.
