The Science of Endocrine Disruptors with Drs. Neff & Mourikes

  • Summary

  • Have you ever left a plastic water bottle in a car on a hot summer day and returned to notice it tasted different? Does opening your windows on a pleasant day really feel like a breath of fresh air? If either of these apply to you, you have firsthand experience with environmental toxins affecting your everyday life.

    This month, Drew & Liv have the privilege of chatting about all things environmental toxins and endocrine disruptors with Drs. Alison Neff & Vicki Mourikes. Throughout the discussion, you will learn about the most common ways in which endocrine disruptors enter our environment, some of the possible mechanisms through which these chemicals alter hormonal pathways, and great strategies you can implement to decrease your exposures. You can find the Instagram accounts mentioned during today’s episode here and here, and the Dirty Dozen 2023 list can be found here. If you are interested in learning more about this topic, Drs. Neff & Mourikes recommended reading one of two review articles published from their lab as a great way to get started.
