Getting To Know Environmental Toxins


Listen Later

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.

3 Exceptional Highlights:

  • Prevention is so inexpensive compared to treatment.
  • Bio-organic produce doesn’t allow toxic pesticides when they grow the food. For meats, dairy and egg production, choose pasture raised, organic, grass fed, grass finished and ethically farmed.
  • If you're buying all the organic things, and then you're feeding your children really crappy food and you're not supporting their liver function, if we are doing all of these things, and we're just going nuts in the organic stuff department, and we are not eating leafy greens, drinking Collagen, taking B vitamins or eating foods with B vitamins like there's no point.

Show Highlights: 

The standard American diet doesn't give our livers any support to handle this toxic overload.

3:14 Juanique

  • Well, in the past hundred years, our exposure to toxins has increased by 2,000%.

The system doesn’t care about our health.

8:27 Tristin

  • This is not because it's just so difficult and complex. It's not because there's no Science behind it. What we're doing is very scientific. It's very research based.

Fen-phen was dissolving heart valves

17:57 Tristin

  • Fen-phen was a weight loss drug. They were using it like crazy in the 90s. And then they found out because of people reporting, that it was basically dissolving heart valves.

Chemicals that we are heavily exposed to

20:16 Juanique

  • But pesticides, guys, this is herbicides, fungicides, insecticides. rodenticides. These are largest like, this is one of the things we're so largely exposed to. And maybe you don't spray your house, like how many people have companies come and spray their homes for pests?

Babies are not safe from toxins

31:26 Juanique

  • In fact, research has shown that when newborns are born, they test the placenta. And the placenta is already laden with like 200 toxins and chemicals.
