Episode 150: Reduce Your Toxic Load, Rethink Your Everyday Products
After I first started on my journey to better health, I hit a plateau when I felt I wasn’t progressing as timely as expected.
When I consulted my doctor about it, I learned that sometimes the devil is in the details-- and I might not have been making the best decisions in the products I was using daily.
My doctor asked me, “What about toxins in your home? What’s in your tap water? Your everyday things?” and that’s what got me on this journey to discover the better, safer alternatives to my everyday products.
From makeup and personal care products to the Teflon pans and cookware we use. Though we may not be exposed to large quantities at a time, using these things daily exposes us to harmful chemicals that add to our toxic load, so much so that we can eventually feel its effects on our health.
In this episode you’ll hear me discuss:
My journey and struggles to better health and how environmental toxins landed on my radar
Everyday products that you’re using that can affect your health
Reducing our toxic load
Shifting to clean beauty and the unexpected but welcomed improvements it had on my skin and my confidence
