Getting To Know Environmental Toxins

Show Summary: Tristin is back! And in this episode with Juanique, they discuss toxins and their burden on human bodies. They mentioned that humans have always been exposed to it since the beginning of time because of the harmful chemicals on pesticides, cosmetics, and perfumes that cause severe illnesses like cancer. According to Juanique, our bodies should have a high functioning liver to deal with toxins back in the day, not today's toxins. Not feeding the liver with the nutritional food it needs causes dysfunction.  Nowadays, the invention of different unhealthy products with harmful chemical content puts our health at a greater risk. They also shared a story about one of their clients who couldn't find a brand that produces organic spinach with no heavy metal. They said eating leafy greens helps feed your gut and gives you tons of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, but make sure to buy ethically sourced products.
