Description
Humans are creatures of habit who are not always aware of the world around us. Rarely will we make lifestyle changes without a catalyst that leaves a lasting impression on us and drives us to behave differently.
For David Roberts, everything changed when his late wife, Mara, was diagnosed with breast cancer 10 years ago. This unfortunate news propelled David to study the environment around him. He discovered that toxins are everywhere. Coming from a public health background, this inspired David to co-found Mara Labs and develop their hallmark product, BrocElite.
In this episode, David talks with Jen about what environmental toxins are, where they can be hiding, and how to minimize their negative consequences.
