Do you know the secret health risks in the everyday items that you might be using?

oday, we're tackling the hidden dangers lurking in our everyday lives—from the food on our plates to the clothes we wear and the products we use at home. Our host, Tina Yeager, sits down with Katy Talento, an epidemiologist and former White House health advisor, who brings eye-opening expertise to the conversation.

You'll discover surprising facts about heavy metals, pesticides, and microplastics hiding in common foods like Girl Scout cookies, baby cereals, and even your wardrobe. Katy Talento reveals why processed foods and artificial fragrances might be sabotaging our health, and shares practical steps for reducing toxic exposure—for both adults and children. Plus, learn simple, affordable strategies for improving your water supply, cleaning your home effectively, and supporting your family's wellbeing, all while nurturing your body's naturally protective microbiome.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by all the headlines about hidden health risks, or simply looking for actionable tips to create a healthier home, this episode will equip and empower you to make wiser choices for yourself and your loved ones. Stay tuned for resources, expert guidance, and encouraging advice you won't want to miss!

Practical Changes You Can Make Today Feeling overwhelmed about where to start? Katy Talento offers these actionable steps:

• Prioritize Water & Sleep: Invest in affordable water filters (like Berkey or reverse osmosis) and unplug wifi devices at night to lower the impact of environmental hazards.

• Rethink Processed Foods: Aim to stick to whole, organic foods along the outer aisles of the grocery store, avoiding processed items riddled with chemicals and microplastics.

• Be Mindful with Children: Focus on breastfeeding and simple, homemade blended foods for babies to reduce exposure to heavy metals and sugar found in commercial baby foods.

• Clean the Cleaners: Swap chemical-laden household cleaners for simple vinegar and water. Avoid products with artificial fragrances—both in cleaning supplies and personal care.

• Watch What's on Your Skin: If you wouldn't eat it, don't put it on your skin! Opt for natural solutions like coconut oil, shea butter, or tallow.

Final Wisdom from Katy Talento: Don't let the sheer number of toxins make you freeze; start small. Begin with one manageable change—perhaps your water source or what you put on your skin—and build from there. Remember, every small step brings you and your family closer to better health.
