Using non-toxic & fertility-friendly products on our bodies and in our home is so important - when you’re trying to conceive AND for your and your family’s overall health.

Endocrine disruptors, especially xeno-estrogens, are running rampant and unregulated in most skin and body products. Studies show that these chemical additives can mess with your reproductive hormones and fertility.

It’s overwhelming to know where to begin - so we want to get to the major offenders first and begin to remove these from the home and stop messing with your reproductive hormones.

One of the biggest offenders is FRAGRANCE. 

And that is the main topic of our discussion today. 

My guest for this episode is Sarah Michels - she is the brains, beauty, and braun behind Infuse Organics - which makes clean, non-toxic skin and body care products from the herbal and medicinal plants that she grows on her own farm. Sarah and her family work together to create healthy, sustainable, and effective products that keep you and your family safe from harmful chemicals while also keeping you smelling amazing. People all over the US and Canada trust her clean, lovely smelling, and effective products.

Today we untangle the web of self-care products and how they are silently causing our bodies and hormones damage - focusing on one of the main culprits - fragrance. Here is what we touch on:
