We don’t often think of our homes as a source of toxins—but many of the most common exposures are hiding right where we cook, eat, breathe, and sleep. Not sure where to start when it comes to removing them? You’re not alone. Today’s guest is here to simplify the process, breaking down the top toxin exposures with a tiered ranking and showing you exactly what to remove, replace, or swap first for the biggest impact.

Dr. Chen dives into the hidden toxins in feminine hygiene products and the safer alternatives. If you’re looking for simple, actionable strategies to reduce your daily exposure to toxins, this episode is a must-listen.
