Summary

Hey, Heal Squad! This week’s chat show with Maria and Dr. Alison is diving into the headlines that have everyone buzzing—from measles outbreaks to baby formula recalls to why your light bulbs could be quietly harming your health. Maria opens up about her personal struggle finding a safe, clean formula for Athena—and how a trusted brand recently reformulated without warning. Dr. Alison weighs in on the industry’s lack of transparency and why even the most “natural” baby products might not be what they seem. They also tackle the media hysteria surrounding the recent measles outbreaks. Are we facing a true public health emergency—or just another distraction? We unpack vaccine fear, immunity basics, and how to strengthen your child’s immune system through environment and lifestyle.PLUS, we get into the real risks of blue light exposure, especially for kids…(Hint: it’s not just about sleep.) — HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ HEADLINES & EPISODE RESOURCES Measles Outbreak: https://apnews.com/article/shakira-measles-new-jersey-texas-mmr-25022a0b7c69a23c27b0ccdbf818ee86 Don’t Kiss Other People’s Babies: https://www.instagram.com/p/DHrsYmGz12K/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== Formula Safety: https://x.com/iancarrollshow/status/1898107172631769090?s=46 Baby Food Recall: https://apnews.com/article/target-good-gather-baby-food-recall-ec3d3f1512ecc29ac3227b5529faf659 ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
