| 0:00.0 | You want to look at all of our toxic load. |
| 0:03.5 | We breathe in toxins, we eat toxins, we slather toxins all over our bodies and clean with toxins and all of that stuff from our external environment. |
| 0:13.0 | But then we also, just from like cellular respiration and exercising and all of these other things, we generate toxins. |
| 0:20.0 | So we have all of this, this various toxic mess |
