Environmental Toxins and Toxins in Your Kitchen Toss Your Non-Stick Cookware Today! What Are Toxins And What Do They Do? As the media makes us more aware of the toxins in plastics and pesticides, new ones continue to emerge right under our nose. They’ve invaded our water, food and even our air, which can affect your organs and cause potential fertility problems. These rapidly accumulating toxins have turned your home into a toxic hotspot. Common daily things that contain toxins are: Non-stick cookware, bleached parchment paper, aluminum foil & scented laundry detergents. These poisonous compounds mimic the estrogen naturally produced in your body. Which means that when they enter your body, they are perceived the same way, and therefore trigger incorrect signals to be sent to your body’s reproductive system and wreak havoc there. For example, women often experience a lack of ovulation, irregular periods and lack of implantation by the embryo from exposure to toxins such as PFCs and estrogen-like compounds. On the other hand, men are dealt inadequate sperm quality and quantity. Often overlooked is the effects they’ll have on your baby! Recent studies have shown that PFCs, which are commonly applied to non-stick cookware, impair fetal growth, harm the liver and suppress immune system function. Study outcomes focusing on lab animals which are exposed to toxic chemicals have made health professionals question the potential effects in humans. What You Can do About Toxin Exposure: Remove food toxins from your diet – become a label reader Reduce home chemical exposure – cleaning supplies & cookware Help your body detox – See you Acupuncture Physician for Detox guidance Although the FDA eventually recognized that BPA exposure was harming the population’s hormones and sexual health after many reputable studies were undergone, they’ve limited their action to recommending that people reduce their contact with BPA. What You Can do at Home to Limit Toxin Exposure: Switching to better cooking pots & pans — cast iron, ceramic and glass are all alternatives that avoid the exposure of PFOA that you may receive by overheating nonstick pans. Get rid of fabric finishes — labels like “stain resistant” or “permanent press” are a warning that they will not only expose you to PFOA but also formaldehyde. Replace bleached parchment paper — natural unbleached is the way to go, avoiding toxic dioxin. Clean out your cleaning supplies — Vinegar to clean glass and windows, baking soda to scrub sinks and freshen laundry, choose natural cleaning supplies in the store. Use Rumford Baking Powder — this baking powder is aluminum free, which is best to avoid because of aluminum’s tendency to accumulate in the brain and generate various conditions including Alzheimer’s.
