We had the amazing opportunity to be on the Shaun T podcast and this is that episode.

Ep 159Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Are Today's WORST Offenders When It Comes To Toxins Even the Healthiest Eaters Are Still Consuming - E159

The Highly Toxic "Foods" Even the Healthiest Eaters are Still Consuming ... cosmetics / personal care products are the most prevalent little-known worst-offenders of toxins today. They're the most unregulated industry in the U.S., and have been since the FDA told them to self-regulate in 1938. In the European Union, 1300 chemicals are banned from cosmetics but not in the U.S. When you apply these products to your body, you are essentially eating many of the chemicals. Unlike foods you put in your mouth, though, there are no liver and other cleansing systems in place so they can go straight into the bloodstream. Using these products day after day, decade after decade is a problem. Because so many known endocrine disruptors, carcinogens, and chemicals linked to other diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and beyond are prevalent, there are smarter ways to feed your body far cleaner such "foods." ------------------- Make sure to subscribe so you don't miss future episodes!
