Xenoestrogens, or chemicals that act like estrogen in the body, could already be lurking in your house and wreaking havoc on your hormones without you even realizing it.

You may have heard of one of the most popular ones, BPA, which is commonly found in plastics, but that’s just the beginning here.

That’s why Dr. Anthony Jay, a best-selling author and lead researcher for the Mayo Clinic, comes on the show to discuss more about these xenoestrogens.

Dr. Jay has been researching these for years and even published a book on the topic. So he’s a top expert that can explain where these harmful chemicals are hiding, why they’re so dangerous, and what you can do to eliminate them from your life.

On top of diving into this topic on a deeper level, Dr. Jay and Dr. Anthony Gustin also veer off into other important ones like DNA testing, water filtration, avoiding grains and high-carb diets, epigenetics, and intermittent fasting.

Since all of these can play a significant role in your hormone health, they’re just as crucial to pay attention to, as you’ll learn in this episode.

Dr. Jay received a Ph.D in biochemistry from Boston University’s Medical School and went off to spend time researching Alzheimer’s disease, cholesterol, fats, and hormone health.

He’s currently a top researcher at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota where he focuses on stem cells, epigenetics, and infrared light.

Through this career path, he discovered just how much of an impact hormone disrupting chemicals can have on our health.

When you tune into this episode, you’ll learn more about the top offenders, why they’re so dangerous, and what can be done to eliminate them from your life.
