Recent research suggests that more than 85% of our health status can be attributed not to our genes, but to our environment. This not only includes the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the stress we’re exposed to in our day-to-day lives, but also the chemicals inside of our personal care products, food, makeup, cookware, cleaning products, and clothing. Our exposure to these chemicals can add up fast and in some cases, they can play a major role in the development and severity of a number of chronic, hormonal, and autoimmune diseases.
There are over 84,000+ chemicals registered for use in the United States, but only 200 or so have been actually tested for safety. This leaves many health coaches, nutritionists, and wellness and fitness professionals often wondering how these chemicals may be impacting their clients health, especially their hormones.
