In this episode I'll discuss toxicity and oxidative stress. I'll describe what I mean by toxins, how they get in, where they go, and what they can do. I'll also talk about:

• The impacts of environmental toxins on the developing brain and their role in depression, ADHD, autism, anxiety, and neurodegenerative disorders.


• Why some of us are more vulnerable to toxicity and thus oxidative stress and health conditions including psychiatric conditions.


• Basic strategies to lower our exposure.
