Your Longevity Blueprint

2: 5 Pillars of a Toxin-Free Lifestyle w/ Aimee Carlson


Listen Later

Toxins are everywhere. Typically, our bodies know how to handle these dangerous chemicals to keep us healthy. But if the toxic overload gets to be too much, serious problems will arise. Today’s guest is a recognized expert in helping people maintain their body’s detoxification systems and avoid these harmful compounds from the start. 

Aimee Carlson, aka “The Toxin Terminator”, is the host of her own podcast, a best-selling author, and featured expert guest on many podcasts and summits. Aimee has spent the last seven years removing hidden toxins from her home to be free of chronic disease. She has helped countless others do the same. 

Simply put, a toxin is anything that can enter the body that the body can’t put to good use. Sadly, these are everywhere you look. Instead of getting overwhelmed, Aimee urges us to focus on what we can control. This starts at home. Getting rid of products with artificial fragrances, eating natural foods, and getting fresh air into your home is a way to take control right away.

When toxins build up in the body, they affect organ function and change cell-structure. Chronic diseases are the natural effect of this. From fighting obesity to preventing cancer, reducing your toxic burden is central to longevity. 

Toxicity isn’t limited to physical health. It enters our thoughts and relationships too. This not only harms us physically but mentally and spiritually as well. There is a strong documented link between gut health and mental health. Aimee shares how we can all work to write a new narrative for ourselves to break out of these toxic habits.

What can you do today to reduce your toxic burden? Let me know in the comments on the episode page!
