Is it hard to believe that you can be exposed to  approximately 500 chemicals before ever leaving your home for the day ? This shocking fact is a stark reality that Kara Kroeger delves into in this episode of the Land Food Life Podcast. Join her as she embarks on a journey of understanding the importance of shielding our bodies from these everyday toxins and toxicants, and how we can actively pave the way towards better health with our food choices.

Kara narrates her deeply personal and moving experience of losing her father due to chemical exposure from Agent Orange. This unfortunate event ignited her exploration into the necessity of being mindful of our environment and the toxicants within it. She also touches upon the significance of compassionate practitioners in healing and recounts Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez's groundbreaking nutritional enzyme protocol that her father used for supporting his body through chemotherapy. Further, Kara sheds light on the differences between toxins and toxicants, understanding free radicals, their sources, and the roles they play in causing biological harm.

Kara then breaks down practical ways to use specific foods to boost health despite the hazardous impacts of toxicants in our environment.  She also emphasizes the importance of a balanced intake of amino acids, the power of cruciferous vegetables, and sulfur's critical role in our bodies. Lastly, she explores the benefits of cutting down on alcohol, enhancing sleep quality, and maintaining bowel health for effective detoxification. This episode will empower you  to protect yourself against free radicals by using whole foods as the foundation of health!
