Crucial Four

 

Crucial Four is more than a supplement company. They focus on the 4 Missing Food Groups: Herbs, Minerals, Biotic Extracts, Mushrooms. The founder, Charles Barber, has been studying plants and soil for over a decade. It is through his discoveries that he was able to heal himself and translate his knowledge into tangible, high quality, nourishing products.

Crucial Four’s products are organic, wild-crafted, harvested from high elevations and free from harmful solvent extracts and fillers/binders.  They offer unique product blends through a variety of delivery methods - from tinctures to powders.

Danae’s Feedback: Crucial Four is a company I have been using for several years and for good reasons! One, I love that this company is local to my area. Two, their founder is genuinely obsessed with procuring the finest ingredients he can find, most often wild-crafted. This translates into products with superior ingredients and noticeable results. Three, their company ethos aligns with DimensionL Wellbeing very much - from their sourcing practices to how they envision and practice a healthy lifestyle. Crucial Four places emphasis on aligning our own rhythms with nature, which is a principle we explore at DLW quite a bit. They understand that nature knows best! I also love that they offer such a variety of products for healthy detoxification and optimal wellbeing. From minerals to adaptogens, and everything in between! Crucial Four offers a cold quartz ozone machine that is like no other on the market, for those of you interested in more self-care gadgets. You can read more about their ozone machine, here.

It is hard to choose just a couple of their products to highlight because everything I have tried from them has been truly life changing. Two of my ride or die products are Crucial Four’s Magnesium Bicarbonate and Icelandic Sea Salt. These two products are affordable, essential and help optimize hundreds of processes in the body.

At DimensionL Wellbeing a lot of our focus on health is through the lens of energetics. After all, we are energetic beings - producing photons and emitting light! The quality and brightness of our light depends on our electrical charge which is powered by minerals. Minerals are essential co-factors to vitamins and hundreds of enzymatic processes. The contamination of our soil, water and air has left our food supply devoid of essential nutrients, including minerals. This means in order to receive the nutrients we essentially need they must be supplemented.

This is why I love Crucial Four’s Icelandic salt, as it contains all trace minerals and is of pristine quality - without accompanying heavy metals which many sea salts contain (thus the pink or grey color). It is so flaky and delicious and I use it in everything from my adrenal cocktail to decadent desserts.

Magnesium is an extremely common mineral to be depleted in, especially since the introduction of fortified foods. It also has a burn rate and needs to be replenished frequently. The modern lifestyle only lends to this depletion and I have found magnesium bicarbonate to be one of the most easily utilized forms of minerals. Making magnesium bicarbonate is one of the most essential and affordable interventions you can find. You can learn more about how to make Magnesium Bicarbonate, here.

As I mentioned, these are two of my favorite products but please do not hesitate to browse their entire line. Some of my other favorite products include (but not limited to): collagen peptides, pine pollen, reishi spores, camu camu and elk antler velvet.
