Description

The average woman is exposed to 168 unique chemicals a day, from every day products like cosmetics, perfume, personal care products, cleaning products, what's in our food and water, and more. Several of these chemicals are known carcinogens, and many of them have never actually been tested for safety in humans. And we wonder why so many women AND men struggle with infertility and hormone imbalance issues, and other chronic diseases? These chemicals we're exposed to daily have a major impact.
But our bodies are resilient and there ARE things we can do to reduce our toxic load. That's why I brought on Nika Lawrie, a Multi-Certified Functional and Integrative Nutrition Practitioner, a Consumer Health and Sustainability Consultant specializing in Environmental Toxins, and CEO of Moringa Health + Wellness, LLC a 360° fully immersive brand designed to help support, educate, and counsel women preparing for pregnancy, pregnant, and post-pregnancy mothers to feel great while raising healthy and environmentally conscious children from day one.
We discuss:

Mind blowing facts and statistics about toxins in our every day products
What does the "generally regarded as safe" label actually mean?
How companies get away with hiding a ton of chemicals in our food and products
How these toxins disrupt the function of our hormones and lead to things like infertility and fibroids
What are some initial steps we can take to start to reduce our exposure to these toxins?
Tools and resources you can use to find clean products
