Microplastics Plastics: 200+ Expert Talks
About Microplastics Plastics
Plastics are in our water, food and household products, and many people come to DrTalks asking what that means for them. Hormone problems, fertility struggles, low testosterone, fatigue, brain fog, and a growing sense that their home might be part of the problem are all things these experts hear about every day. These talks also go past water bottles. Practitioners discuss concerns about how plastics and the chemicals in them may affect hormones, the gut, inflammation and overall toxic load, alongside pesticides, heavy metals and forever chemicals. You'll find conversations on hidden chemicals from deodorant to dish soap, research on microplastics and colon cancer, microplastics and fertility, and reducing exposures at home. Functional medicine doctors, naturopaths and environmental health experts explain what the research shows so far, which tests are worth asking your provider about, from toxin panels to hormone testing, and what helps, from non-toxic swaps and water filtration to better food sourcing and detox support.
