I want you to get to know this group of chemicals, as they are probably more ubiquitous than BPA, and a lack of awareness is leaving you literally soaking in a sea of phthalates.

Reducing Toxins for a Healthy Conception with Lara Adler
Lara Adler is a Certified Holistic Health Coach and an Environmental Toxins Expert, and, let me tell you something, this girl knows her toxins. Many of us know a thing or two about toxins, but Lara knows everything!
Today we talk about the influence of toxins on fertility and our growing babies. Because developing fetuses are so much more susceptible to the mal-effects of toxins, and because the effects can last a lifetime, it is important that we learn how to protect them as much as is possible.
However this episode is helpful for anyone who is curious about toxins and how to reduce them.
Tired of having that same old argument with your uncle Ron, with him saying that there is no reason to be worried about RoundUp and food coloring and the like? Now you have some ammunition!
In this episode, we'll learn:
That indoor air quality can be 50-100 times worse than outdoors
That some chemicals are neurotoxins, especially in developing baby
The chemicals are linked to PCOS (leading cause of sub-fertility)
The chemicals linked to fertility issues in men
How birth defects on boy babies are on the rise
That being pregnant detoxes chemicals out of mom and into baby
That avoiding BPA is not enough and why
And Lara's three best first steps to reduce your toxic load
