Morley Robbins is the creator and founder of The Root Cause Protocol and the Magnesium Advocacy Group. Morley received his BA in Biology from Denison University in Ohio and holds an MBA from George Washington University in healthcare administration. Morley has trained in wellness coaching, nutritional counselling, and functional diagnostic nutrition.

He is also known as the Magnesium Man due to his extensive research into and understanding of magnesium’s role in the body. Morley’s research saw him deciphering the intricate relationship between magnesium, iron, copper, and calcium as a way to free ourselves from illness and dis-ease. As a certified health coach with an expertise in Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA), Morley has performed thousands of RCP one-on-one consultations, helping people feel better by getting to the root cause of their symptoms. 

MORLEY’S STORY

Morley had been working in mainstream medicine as a hospital executive and consultant for 32 years when he developed a condition called “frozen shoulder.” His family doctor quickly recommended surgery as the only hope for Morley if he wanted to be able to lift his right hand above his waist ever again. Friends who owned a health food store intervened, encouraging Morley to try chiropractic care. His initial response was, “thanks guys, but I don’t do witchcraft.”

Several months later, the pain was wearing on him, and his friends insisted. It only took a couple weeks of “light touch chiropractic care” (Network Spinal Analysis) before his shoulder had full range of motion once again. The experience was so life-changing for Morley, he questioned everything he knew-  or thought he knew – about healing.

He left the world of hospital administration and dove deep down the rabbit hole…

MORLEY DISCOVERS MAGNESIUM

In July 2009, Morley discovered magnesium upon reading Carolyn Dean’s book The Magnesium Miracle. He realized that this was a key piece of the whole health puzzle that virtually no practitioners seemed to be aware of — even in the natural health world. He was captivated by this mineral, and went on to read even more. 

Thousands of books/articles (and counting) later, Morley came to realize that magnesium plays a role in all metabolic systems, and is therefore a contributing factor to nearly all major health issues. Magnesium deficiency is the common thread for millions of Americans who are dealing with heart disease, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, cancer, general fatigue, and any chronic condition borne out of inflammation.

As Morley read and made connections between hundreds of scientific studies, what he found was shocking: magnesium deficiency, or insufficiency, was at the center of all these common modern diseases due to its central role in activating 3,751 proteins, and thus thousands of enzyme systems. 

Today, Morley views it as his life’s work to push back the tides of nutritional insanity and magnesium deficiency in the day-to-day lives of folks who want to feel better. He is now committed to ending the epidemic of magnesium deficiency that is plaguing health and well-being across the globe, whilst flagging the significance of excess iron and a lack of bioavailable copper in the body.
