  • Summary

  • This episode is brought to you by Cozy Earth, TUSHY, and Fatty15. Hidden toxins lurk in everyday products, increasing our risk of chronic diseases like cancer. These toxins can be found not only in products absorbed through our skin but also in the air we breathe and the water we drink. By learning about the impact of these hidden chemicals and where they are commonly found, we can make better consumer choices, limit our exposure, and improve our health and that of our families. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, we are rerunning one of our favorite episodes with board-certified toxicologist Dr. Yvonne Burkart. Dr. Burkart reveals the top sources of hidden toxins in everyday products, including cosmetics, cleaning supplies, and household items. She discusses the latest research on toxin exposure, identifies common toxic ingredients and their sources, and shares her top tips for protecting ourselves from these toxins and optimizing detoxification in our bodies. Dr. Yvonne Burkart is a 22-year veteran of Toxicology with expertise in reproductive toxicity, particularly endocrine disruption, infertility, and cancer. She has also served as a Senior Toxicologist in the flavor and fragrance chemical industry, where she helped to ensure the safety of flavor ingredients, and is now a whistleblower on the lack of regulations in that field.
