In this episode, we dive deep into the hidden dangers of everyday chemicals and their alarming impact on human health. Dr. Shanna Swan, renowned environmental and reproductive epidemiologist, unpacks the science behind phthalates—chemicals found in plastics and personal care products—and how they’re silently lowering testosterone, shrinking sperm counts, and affecting brain development.

Over the past 50 years, sperm counts have dropped by over 50%, and male reproductive health is reaching a tipping point. Dr. Swan shares eye-opening research from her groundbreaking book *Count Down*, and offers practical steps individuals and families can take to protect themselves from toxic exposures in their environment.

This conversation goes beyond statistics—it’s about reclaiming our health, protecting future generations, and advocating for change in a world filled with invisible threats.
