We all know plastic is bad for the earth, but did you know that it may be just as bad for our bodies? According to research, even consuming food with plastic utensils may be significantly affecting our hormones. Ziplock bags, containers, utensils - our food is virtually surrounded by plastic! So how can we get around it, and why?

In this episode, I invite Dr. Rudolph Eberwein on to the show to help us understand what Identifying Endocrine Chemicals are, how we can identify them, and ways we can avoid them. [WARNING] This episode will make you want to put that plastic water bottle away forever!
