The HIDDEN TOXINS in Your Home (And How to Clean Them Out) with Allison Evans

About this episode

In this episode, Dr. David Jockers sits down with Allison Evans, co-founder of Branch Basics, to uncover the hidden toxins lurking in the average home and the simple swaps that lower your family's toxic load. Allison shares how she was diagnosed with the "worst case of PCOS" her doctor had ever seen, then went on to heal and conceive four children naturally after removing toxic chemicals from her life.   You will learn why the EPA says indoor air is two to five times more toxic than outdoor air, why inhaled chemicals like VOCs can be even more damaging than toxins in food, and how synthetic fragrances act as obesogens, carcinogens, endocrine disruptors, asthmagens, and neurotoxins that signal your body to store fat.   Dr. Jockers and Allison also cover the power of removal over replacement, why disinfectants and "greenwashed" natural products can still work against you, how pesticides target the brain, and the easiest places to start, from laundry and dish soap to a single all-purpose concentrate.   In This Episode:  00:00 Synthetic Fragrances and Fat Storage 07:05 Welcome Allison Evans 08:03 Worst Case of PCOS Ever 13:43 Removing Toxins, Reducing Medications
