Summary

Rates of chronic illness are soaring in both children and adults—and many are getting sick younger, with no family history to explain it. In this gripping episode, Dr. Aly Cohen, a board-certified rheumatologist and environmental health expert, exposes how tens of thousands of unregulated chemicals are quietly infiltrating our homes, foods, water, and personal care routines. Drawing from her new book Detoxify, Dr. Cohen explains how immune- and hormone-disrupting chemicals are linked to rising rates of autoimmune disease, obesity, anxiety, allergies, and more—and why this chemical overload often begins before a child is even born. But this isn’t a doom-and-gloom conversation—it’s a call to action. Dr. Cohen shares realistic, affordable ways families can reduce their toxic load, including simple product swaps, smarter food choices, and the surprising power of sweating, sleeping, and even bouncing on a trampoline. With science-backed clarity and mother-to-mother warmth, Dr. Cohen helps us reclaim our health from a system that won’t do it for us. If you want to raise healthier kids in a toxic world, this episode is essential. *** Learn more about Dr. Aly Cohen and all she has to offer here Get your copy of Detoxify here Learn more about your ad choices.
