Let’s face it—at one time or another, we’re all a little dirty. In fact, given the prevalence of chronic conditions around the world, we’re all probably a lot dirtier than we’re willing to admit.
Issues like joint pain, fatigue, hair loss, eczema, and plain old smelly gas plague billions of people. Sure, we blame it on our age, we blame it on our upbringing, we even blame it on our parents. But the truth is that countless chronic illnesses develop and persist because of the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the environment around us every single day.
Toxins are everywhere and washing your hands for 20 seconds or more is only going to solve part of the problem.
Dr. Wendie Trubow’s been down this road herself and shares her own experiences with us today. Listen as she shares examples of toxins that people consume unknowingly every day, her own detoxification journey and advice for anyone beginning on that path, and the most important tips from her book "DIRTY GIRL: Ditch the Toxins, Look Great, and Feel Freaking Amazing!"
