Listen "26 How to reduce your toxic load for your fertility, hormones and overall health with toxicologist Dr Yvonne Burkart"
Episode Synopsis
Wow what a great chat we had with the amazing Yvonne Burkart on Episode 27!
Yvonne is a board-certified toxicologist, chemical & ingredient safety expert, environmentalist and mother. So she has plenty of experience with toxins not only as a scientist but through her own personal journey to fall pregnant. She had to personally clean up her toxic exposure through personal care products to successfully fall pregnant with her first child.
Today we discuss:
- Small easy to manage steps to reduce your toxic exposure
- The impact toxins have on your health and fertility for both men and women
- Personal care products, cosmetics and fragrances
- The impact of plastic and microwaving our food in plastics
- The impact that exposure to all of the above can have on young women, starting puberty earlier, body fat and painful periods.
- So much more!
