Summary

How can we reduce our exposure to toxins without driving ourselves absolutely out of our minds?

Our workplaces, homes and foods are contaminated with a mind-numbing mix of chemical toxins. And by default, there's a shocking lack of information available about what exactly is contained in the products we buy.

But instead of aiming for super sanitized perfection—which is totally impossible—it's better to learn how to reduce our toxic load by ridding our pantries and homes of the worst offenders.

And I'm pleased to say that joining us today is our friend, Gin Stephens, a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of multiple books. Gin is also a retired teacher, wife, mother, and host of multiple top-ranked podcasts. Gin's intermittent fasting lifestyle shift back in 2014, led to her shedding over 80 pounds and then going on a success rampage with all that extra energy, so you're going to dig this one.

On this very special show with Gin Stephens, we're chatting about:

• How to reduce your toxic load without driving yourself bananas • What to do about food contact chemicals and cosmetics in particular • Why the precautionary principle actually matters in science • How and why intermittent fasting works so well • How to get family on board • And much more…
