According to Dr. Lora Shahine, "Environmental toxins are the new tobacco". Her point was that there is enough research and science to show that there is a definitive link between the rise in health issues and toxins and it should be talked about more frequently. Dr. Shahine is a fertility doctor who works with other fertility doctors to help give them the information and resources they need to be able to confidently educate their patients on this topic.
Most people are still unaware of this issue, and if you're here reading this, than that means you are one step ahead of most!
We accumulate toxins in our bodies over time so it's really important to take control...
Most people assume that green products are a safer option. And based our experience with organic foods, they really should be. But unfortunately, what's not common knowledge is, those green terms like "organic" & "natural" that we have come to rely upon for choosing our food don't actually carry over to our household products.
