Xenoestrogens & the 3P’s
Plastics, Pesticides & Parabens
Xenoestrogens are chemical compounds found in nature that imitate the hormone oestrogen.
The 3 major sources of xenoestrogens are Plastics, Pesticides & Parabens.
Evidence is building, suggesting the 3 P’s are partly to blame for hormonal imbalances in today’s society such as;
*Lower testosterone levels in men.
*Thyroid issues & Oestrogen dominance in women.
*Hormonal imbalances rising in the general public.
PLASTICS;
Plastic is everywhere! Just stop and take a look around for 2 seconds.
*Plastic bags
*Plastic containers
*Plastic drink bottles
*Plastic Toys
*kids dummies
*Microwavable bags & containers.
Plastic is literally everywhere
Swap food containers for glass and your drink bottles for stainless steel, at a very minimum STOP heating foods in plastics.
PESTICIDES;
Are chemicals used on our foods to keep PESTS at bay and are linked to a wide range of health problems, they include;
*Herbicides
*Pesticides
*Insecticides
*fungicides
*insect repellent ECT ECT..
Glyphosate has shown to be linked to cancer growth & other auto immune conditions.
Go grass fed, Wild caught, cage free, Organically grown ETC ETC or at the very minimum rinse your produce before eating it.
PARABENS;
Yep, cosmetics again. Our skin is the largest organ we have, meaning everything we touch & come into contact with is absorbed in to our bodies with the potential to cause us harm.
Yes, even those cheap $2 deodorants & shampoo’s.
Look for products that state:
*Carcinogen Free
*Paraben Free
*Sulphate Free
*Mineral Oil Free ECT ECT..
PT-3 coming soon manipulating hormones through nutrition.
