How To Reduce Your Toxic Burden And Prevent Exposure

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, Paleovalley, and
Beekeeper’s Naturals.   Environmental toxins can wreak havoc
on your body. And our bodies can only handle so much. There is a
threshold, and when it’s passed, toxins can’t effectively be
processed out of the body and are left lingering. When our toxic
load is maxed out we start to see symptoms and dysfunctions. 
  In today’s episode, I speak with Dr. Casey Means, Harriet
Washington, and Maggie Ward about reducing your toxic exposure, the
compounded effect of toxic exposures, and more.   Dr. Casey
Means is a Stanford-trained physician, Chief Medical Officer and
cofounder of metabolic health company Levels, an associate editor
of the International Journal of Disease Reversal and Prevention,
and a lecturer at Stanford University. Her mission is to maximize
human potential and reverse the epidemic of preventable chronic
disease by empowering individuals with tools that can facilitate a
deep understanding of our bodies and inform personalized and
sustainable dietary and lifestyle choices.    Harriet
Washington has been the Shearing Fellow at the University of
Nevada's Black Mountain Institute, a Research Fellow in Medical
Ethics at Harvard Medical School, a senior research scholar at the
National Center for Bioethics at Tuskegee University, and a
visiting scholar at DePaul University College of Law. She is the
author of Deadly Monopolies, Infectious Madness, Medical Apartheid,
and A Terrible Thing to Waste, a book that looks at the devastating
consequences of environmental racism—and what we can do to remedy
its toxic effects on marginalized communities.   Maggie Ward,
MS, RD, LDN, is the Nutrition Director at The UltraWellness Center.
She holds a master’s degree in nutrition from Bastyr University and
focuses on using whole foods for holistic nutrition therapy. In
addition, she completed her requirements to become a registered
dietitian at Westchester Medical Center in New York.   This
