This page includes a number of educational videos on HTMA, copper toxicity, and minerals in general. The page is divided into 5 main color-coded sections...
Why Mineral Imbalances Should be on Everyone's Radar
This video, a sample from our 2021 Summit, gives an important overview of why mineral imbalances are so important for everyone to understand.
Mineral Moments Series
Short 3 to 5 minute videos discussing some of the key nutrients and other mineral-related topics.
Copper Toxicity Discussions
Various interviews and discussions with fellow experts on copper toxicity
Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis
Benefits and history of HTMA, includng unique historical perspectives from Dr. Malter, PhD.
Copper Toxicity Movie
In this full length documentary, I sit down with several leading experts in minerals, HTMA, and copper toxicity. The compilation of information in this film, including stories from those affected, serves as a powerful educational tool on the topic and is a call for greater education, both at the medical level, as well as that which is passed on to patients and the public.
Each year, our HTMA Virtual Summit brings together leaders in the field, offering free education on mineral-based health topics and HTMA. This video, a sample of the presentations from our 2021 Summit, provides an important overview of why understanding hidden mineral imbalances is so vital, as they truly affect everyone. https://htmavirtualsummit.com/
Magnesium & Calcium
The effect of magnesium and calcium on bone health, reasons for magnesium deficiency, and why blood tests usually miss this imbalance.
Advancing the Way we View Health and Nutrition
A brief look at how greater emphasis on bio-individual nutrition and minerals can be used to address a variety of health conditions.
Vitamin D
While natural Vitamin D is healthy for us all, contrary to popular myth supplementing with Vitamin D pills can actually be quite harmful.
Iodine
A brief look at the importance of iodine and why people have been led to fear it.
Potassium
Potassium is one of the most important nutrients in our body, yet almost everyone is deficient. Learn why this goes unrecognized, and how it can affect health.
Copper and Zinc
A quick overview of why many are overloaded with copper (copper toxicity), deficient in zinc, and how this imbalance affects health.
A Caveat If You're Taking Vitamins
How people, when they take most vitamins sold out there, could be making their body more nutritionally deplete.
Copper vs Iron
Do we need more iron? More copper? While a small demographic can benefit with taking iron, the issue for most people stems from a copper imbalance, and supplementing more of either can be detrimental.
Dr Malter, PhD was one of the very first to successfully integrate HTMA into clinical psychology practice. Taught directly by the pioneeers of HTMA-based nutritional balancing (Drs Eck & Watts), and with insight into HTMA spanning 4 decades, this video offers a rare look at the history of HTMA and why it's not more commonly used (ie: the reasons behind its suppression).
Dr. Karen von Merveldt-Guevara is a German trained physician who combines her knowledge of modern medicine with orthomolecular medicine and the wisdom of ancient healing practices. With a profound understanding of biochemistry and minerals, and the ability to successfully adopt HTMA into her detox protocols, I have great respect for the work she does. In this interview she discusses her approach to detox, the importance of HTMA work, copper toxicity, and methylation
Rachel Neumann was also one of the very first to ever use HTMA in clinical practice. In this rare interview, she shares her background, her experience with copper toxicity and detoxing, the importance of using HTMA for informed healing protocols, and the mind-spirit-mineral connection.
How to Detox Copper
One-size-fits-all approaches and erroneous suggestions to "just take zinc" or some other supplement to "detox copper" miss the bigger picture. Not only is the correct approach highly individual, but it is also not just about trying to get rid of all the copper. Copper is an essential nutrient and must be supported, just as the other mineral imbalances occurring in the body must also be considered.
Does Copper (or my IUD) Cause the Symptom of ______ ?
Copper is an essential nutrient, but in excess it can create symptoms. Some symptoms can be directly from the copper, but to really understand symptoms, we need to look beyond just copper at the other mineral imbalances which are created in the process.
How Long Does it Take to Get Copper Toxicity from an IUD?
While many IUD users struggle with the effects of copper toxicity, it's important to remember that the IUD is not the only contributing source. As this video explains, many variables must be considered as to how long a person may tolerate the IUD without symptoms.

Before 'The Bleeding Edge' and other professionally produced films that helped shine a light on the dangers of medical devices including certain contraceptives, this 2017 film was a simple passion project by Rick Fischer as a means of helping educate people on copper IUD risks.
In this full-length film documentary, Rick sits down with several of today's leading experts in minerals, HTMA, and, copper toxicity. With a zero dollar budget and without any Hollywood-style cinematography (we apologize for the "home-movie" quality), this film stemmed from a work of love as a way to call for greater education, both at the medical level, as well as that which is passed on to patients and the public. At a time before the support resources available today existed, the message of this film was ground-breaking.
The compilation of information in this film, including stories from those affected and historically significant interviews with some of the leading and pioneering experts in the field, serves as a powerful educational tool. For ourselves, our children’s sake, and for those we care about, let’s pursue the advancement of nutritional education and awareness in order to create a healthier world for all.
"I’ve worked on several productions that cost more than $100 million and were far less informative and valuable to humanity than your film, so way to do what you can with what you had to get the truth out!"
