How To Detoxify Your Life & Drop the Food Guilt With Maggie Berghoff


Listen Later

Maggie Berghoff was only 24 years old when she felt like her body was falling apart — she was diagnosed with PCOS, Hashimoto’s, hypothyroidism, leaky gut, and adrenal fatigue, among other issues, and even had a life-threatening mini-stroke. She was told she’d likely never have children, and she’d be on IV drips for the rest of her life. But she proved everyone wrong: Today, Maggie is a healthy, thriving, successful entrepreneur and functional nurse practitioner, USA Today best-selling author, and mom of three. 


So, how did she get there? During this interview, we delved into many of the steps Maggie took to reverse her PCOS and other diagnoses, which included the following topics:


  • How to minimize your pesticide exposure and wash your produce
  • Best lab tests for infertility
  • How to find nontoxic sunscreens
  • Is stevia safe?
  • The best clean beauty brands and products
  • What are endocrine disruptors in skincare?
  • How to stop stressing about food and fix your mindset around food
  • Healthy snack brands for kids and adults
