Description

Whether we like it or not, we are exposed to thousands of chemicals everyday — in our air, our food, our water, our household products – and they bioaccumulate, but there is a lot we can do to protect ourselves and our families. In this episode, Shazi speaks to world-renowned pediatrician, epidemiologist, and author, Dr. Philip Landrigan, one of the world’s leading advocates of children’s health, and Jocelyn Lyle, a Senior VP at EWG (Environmental Working Group). They both share why parents need to be cautious about environmental exposures during pregnancy and in baby’s early years, and offer actionable steps parents can take. Shazi also shares what she learned from her two pregnancies and why this is the driving force behind her everyday work to protect children’s health.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
