This episode is going to open your eyes, challenge mainstream health advice, and give you the

real tools to reclaim your health. Dr. Daniel Pampa, welcome to the Skinny Confidential, him and her show. This is the Skinny Confidential, him and her. Expose the most toxic thing that you think is happening today. Wow, there's a lot. Pull out your scroll. Settle in. Settle in.

All right, yeah. Look, I mean, here's what I always tell people. Start here because it's so big. Okay. Water. I mean, people, start here because it's so big. Okay. Water. I mean, just I can't believe how many people are still drinking city water, tap water, if you will. It amazes me because the amount of drugs in the water alone could be the biggest problem. The amount of birth control that they're finding in the water. Okay, that affects men, that affects women, that affects all of us differently.

But the fact is, is it's not a small problem, it's a big problem. What if they're showering in it? Well, then even a bigger problem. So, because you're taking in water particles, molecules, if you will, into your lungs, which goes directly into the bloodstream. So even chlorine, you're taking a regular normal shower,

you're getting about nine to 11 glasses of chlorinated water, right? So a lot of people have a point of service unit, or maybe they're drinking bottled water, who knows what they're drinking, but the fact is, is you're showering in it, so you're still getting a lot of the chemicals just from showering it.

You need a whole house water filtration system, you're showering in it, so you're still getting a lot of the chemicals just from showering in it. You need a whole house water filtration system, but by all means, please at least get an RO unit to filter the drugs out. RO is inexpensive, but it filters out fluoride, which is another major, major problem. Chlorine, well of course, chlorine's easy, but it's the drugs in the fluoride that RO filters out. Say you have a daughter or a son that's little like two, three, and you put them in the bathtub every night and they take a bath. Is the birth control like get it's seeping? Well, of course. Can I ask a dumb question though? Yeah. How is the birth control getting in the water? Is

this something that- Is this how this is gonna work? You're gonna ask the really good question, he's gonna ask the dumb question. I'm gonna ask the really stupid question. Okay, I'm just wanted to know. I'm gonna ask the better question. Is this like people are, it's getting into the supply when they go to the bathroom, people are putting...

That's how, yes. Okay. That wasn't a dumb question because I think if I was out there listening, I would be thinking the same thing, well, what do you mean drugs in the water? Well, you know, like Alex Clark shows up, and then Alex shows up, the frogs are gay, the frogs are gay, I'm like, explain what's happening to me. Yeah, exactly. Why are there drugs in the water? Well, you know, like Alex Clark showed, and then Alex shows, like, the frogs are gay. I'm like, explain what's happening to me.

And then I can- Yeah, exactly. Why are there drugs in the water? Yeah, yeah, that's how. I mean, literally, I mean, this isn't reality, but you're drinking your neighbor's hormones. You know, you're taking your neighbor's estrogen, you know, so to speak. Because they use the restroom, it gets into the water supply, it doesn't get filtered out properly.

Exactly. Because you have to understand the filtration, the way it works. They're more concerned about contaminated water from an infection standpoint than they are filtering out drugs in the water. It's very small. So to your question, you can absorb a lot of these. And by the way, hot water makes the absorption higher, obviously, because it opens up the pores.

Someone can get a water filter. Do the shower filters work that people put on their showers? Well, they can, okay, but you need a good one because it has to be big enough because a lot of people get these really tiny ones because they spend $20 on Amazon or something. But the problem is the medium's not enough to impact what's running through it. So you have to get the bigger ones that do screw on, right? I mean they could be a hundred dollars, but then at least they filter out the sum of the contaminants like some of the heavy metals, but they'll

filter out the chlorine for sure. How did you become so passionate in the subject of toxins and EMF and radiation and all these things? I didn't choose it. I chose me. 1999, I got very sick and pain to purpose. That's been my whole life story, unfortunately. And really, what happened was what happens to so many people today. It started with fatigue.

You have to understand, I lived a healthy lifestyle even then, right? I mean, so it wasn't like, I grew up with a very healthy lifestyle. Home cooked meals, time and family, my mother did all the cooking. I grew up rarely eating fast food. I could probably count the number of times

we just didn't do that. I grew up very healthy. For me, all of a sudden to get fatigued, I was training a lot at that time. I was running a very busy practice, two young boys at the time, and I was putting in 250 to 300 miles a week on my bike, training at an expert level, high level. I thought I was over training. Cut back, nothing. It didn't get better, it over training. Cut back, nothing.

Didn't get better, got worse. Cut back even more, off the bike for weeks. So that's when I realized, okay, this is more than fatigue. Thought it was just my adrenals, my thyroid, because I had a lot of those symptoms. Blood work normal, that was disappointing. I remember I spent $4,000 on blood work out of pocket and looking for an answer.

And when it comes back, doctor walks in the room and his exact words were, son, you're healthier than me. I was like, that was a bad day. Because if he would have told me I had cancer, I'd have been like, great, now I know what I'm fighting up against, why I feel bad, let's go. But it wasn't that way at all.

I went on for whatever more years just going, what is wrong with me? Searching the internet like many, and this is back in 1999, so it wasn't what it was today, but looking for answers and put it this way, long story short, everything I teach today, I've been training doctors for 20 years on my protocols, everything came out of that.

So it was from pain to purpose. So what did you find out was wrong with you? Well, when people don't feel well and they have a lot of unexplainable illnesses, whether it be autoimmune, hormone problems, just list off the symptoms from anxiety, brain fog, can't sleep, weird things happening, gut problems that just aren't

fixing. Well, typically it's neurotoxic illness. And that's what I had, but what does that mean? My big player was mercury. And how the story goes is this. I was online searching for answers as I explained. I found Matt Hatter's disease. You know what that is? I heard that. Okay. Well, people making felt hats used mercury as part of the process. Okay. They all became mad hatters.

I had every symptom. Wait, I don't understand. You're saying hatters back in the day would use this and they would get that and you somehow had this, but you weren't a hatter. I looked at the symptoms that those mad hatters had, I had all of them. And it was from making hats?

Anxiety, irritability. Yeah, they were just getting mercury poisoning. Got it. Here's the problem. In that $5,000 worth of blood work that I got, one of the tests was mercury. So I did a blood mercury test and it came back negative. And it was a year or so later, I was working with a very bright endocrinologist because my hormones were jacked. Just putting it mildly. My ability to adapt to stress was nil. Even sound would send me over the edge.

My wife literally would have to, oftentimes just take the kids out of the house because, you know, I was not good. But the Mad Hatters had all those symptoms. But the point was is that this endocrinologist said, wrong test. That would be if you had an acute, meaning daily exposure, like the people making hats, right? They were getting a daily exposure of mercury, so it was in their blood. It wouldn't be in your blood

because it's only there for a few days, and then it's out of the blood. And what happens is it goes into your tissues where it bioaccumulates. That stockpiles build up builds up over time so he said you have chronic you know so it wouldn't show up on your blood anyways i did a different test where you try to challenge it out of your tissue and then there it was and what was it from? Good point. As I turned out in my cycling journey, journal, I went back and I looked at when my symptoms began. There was a clue and I never saw. It began days after I got two big silver amalgam

fillings removed which contained 50% mercury, which most countries have banned when I'm not here in the United States, but that I never picked up on that correlation. I remember fatigue, I remember not feeling well after that, but I thought it was the anesthesia, I just thought it was the procedure, who knows, but I never rewound that clock. I was also living in a very low grade moldy home, it really wasn't bothering anyone else in the home,

you know, but because I was neurotoxically not good from the mercury, what happened was is it just set my bucket overflowing. It's very similar to, you have to hear the owner of Branch Basics, her son had poison from cockroach spray when he was really little. He got stuck in a gymnasium where they didn't know he was in there back in the day. And they sprayed his face. They sprayed roach spray all over and he was, as a little kid, was stuck in the gym. And her as a mother was like, why does my child look like a sprayed roach? That's what he looked like after he got the poison.

And so what she said is like, he couldn't even be in the house because they had to sleep outside because he was already so like, there was so many toxins that like you're saying with the sound, any little thing, a pin dropping would annoy him because he couldn't take on anymore. Like if he even smelled any chemical cleaning supplies, the bucket was full. Yeah, you know, I, I sometimes do this, right? And you know, I'm gonna do it anyway. So if I had two of these, right, you could see the water line.

So can you all see the water line from over there? But it's dying near to the top, okay? Let's say I had another glass here with just barely a little bit of water in. If I stress this one, it's gonna overflow as it just did a little bit, right? Okay, think about that. This is someone whose bucket is very full with toxins.

But I'm gonna be honest, the body doesn't know the difference of physical, chemical and emotional stress. That bucket is full. It just takes one more little bit of a something, whatever it is, and now you're sick, overflowing symptoms. Now, this glass here that's barely filled with water, I could stress that a lot and not have problems, right?

So here you have two people living in a house with mold maybe, right? Which is another big reason why people get sick. And this is the one who gets sick right here, right? Yeah, maybe genetically their pathways aren't as good, but typically it's just exposures over the lifetime and we accumulate these toxins. So part of the answer to your question was,

once I got sick, I became so chemically sensitive, and the answer to your question was, how did I get into this, right? All the toxins in my Instagram is warning people about toxins. When you become that sensitive, when my bucket was that full, I had to live life very differently.

For me to go out in public and be exposed to somebody that had perfume on, you learn how toxic things are. Because if someone had, and it's not in your head, meaning someone has essential oils on, I'm like, uh-oh, I'm going to react. They have clone or perfume on. And then I'm like, oh, I'm not reacting going to react. They have clone or perfume on. And then I'm like, oh, I'm not reacting. And I find out, oh, they had essential oils on. Okay, but when someone has perfume or clone on, I would be just brain fogged, irritable.

It would be like I could be sick for days after that. So what it does is it makes you a recluse. You just back up in your own little safe space if you can find one. And that's how I know, you know, that's how I learned about a lot of the toxins and things because my life had to be at a different level of toxicity. Today I can handle it. I can sit next to people with perfume, cologne, and I can handle it. I prefer not, but I can handle it. So you can't handle a Christmas tree and an Uber? Yeah, no, the Christmas tree and an Uber's, I mean, you know, now that I know that I know,

it just pisses me off, right? Yeah, it's like, this is a true story. My wife and I were literally in Vegas and it was so bad that we, my wife was saying, pull the car over, okay? It's like, and we did, we pulled the car over. We made him pull the car over. We had to jump a medium, literally,

to get off of a busy road because we couldn't go one. We were gagging and this guy's riding around like this. But yeah, those Christmas trees, they have many neurotoxins in them. Those things are absolutely not good for anybody, especially if your bucket's full. Dave Asprey just came on the podcast. You're just talking about that.

Mm-hmm. And he says- He's going to do the show with Dave in a few days. You got it. You guys will be great. He says he asks the driver to put it in the glove compartment. Oh, I've done it all the time. Yeah.

I've taken them down. Matter of fact, I was getting in an Uber and I saw he had it like on the back seat hanging there and he was coming around the other side. I took it off and threw it under his car. He didn't want to deal with it. It bothers people. It's funny that you say this though because sometimes I notice like stuff and maybe I just have less capacity, stuff will bother me that doesn't bother him.

So for instance, when we wake up in the morning and he turns the lights on too bright, it bothers me. And it doesn't bother him. Or certain sounds will bother me. Like I can't go into a gym that's playing like gangster rap at seven in the morning. It's like too jarring, but it doesn't bother him. I wouldn't like that either. But yeah, that said, yeah.

So the word neurotoxin, right? Not all toxins are created equal. Some are much worse than others. The ones that accumulate in our nerve tissue, the biggest nerve in the body is your brain, and those are really the ones that cause some of the symptoms that you just mentioned. But depending on what parts of the brain it accumulates

can really have different symptoms, different diseases, conditions that go along with that. But neurotoxins are deadly and they get into the brain. Mercury is deadly because it makes its way into the brain. Those silver fillings that made me sick, studies show that it not only accumulates in the brain, but it oftentimes accumulates in the pituitary hypothalamus. What is that? That controls your thyroid. No wonder I couldn't figure out my thyroid. No wonder my blood work was normal,

because I had normal hormones, but the problem was my control tower wasn't getting the right system. You mentioned that you had them removed. Why did having them remove activate it? Wouldn't that help you in alleviating? Well, because they grind and the stuff sprays everywhere. Got it.

Yeah, it vaporized. So how, those fillings are 50% mercury. They vaporize mercury for the life of the filling. So if someone goes on Google, Google the smoking tooth video, that video is purposely a 25 year old silver filling. And what they do, it's very clever, they put the filling in front of basically a screen, a fluorescent screen that shows mercury vapor, okay?

They rub it with a pencil, just simulating some simple chewing, right? And you see mercury vapor just pouring off of that 25-year-old filling. The reason 25-year-old filling is important is because many dentists, because of the ADA, not blaming dentists, they would tell them, oh, old fillings, all the mercury's gone anyway.

Their first stance was, oh, the mercury doesn't come off. It's locked in there. Well, the first verse was it was fine, right? Fine, totally. And the mercury's safe, it's bound up in there. Well, not true, not true. And yes, it does leach. It amounts that accumulate in there. Well, not true, not true. And yes, it does leech. It amounts that accumulate in the brain over time.

And eventually, yes, you'll be affected. Now, I did something even more. I had, I wore contact lenses, 70s, 80s, early 90s, is when finally, mercury and contact lens fluid saline solution was banned. Oh. It was going right into our brain. Oh my God, cause your eye is your brain.

You know Dr. Jerry Curatolo? No, one of my good friends. Oh my God. Love Jerry. People loved him on the podcast. He's the best, so he's been on, We See Him When We Go to New York, and like that's a lot of his practice.

By the way, I go to New York. Just to see him? Yeah, not just to see him, but to get my dental work done. That's amazing that he works with him. He has this list that he wants us to do. Fellow Italian man. Oh, yeah, yeah. I can't be pregnant to do his list.

But it's interesting, because he came on and we had to do a whole episode and he talked and a lot of his practice is working with people to safely remove those to get them out of the mouth. Well, exactly. And, you know, look, I send Jerry a lot of people because my program is virtual.

We touch, literally, we touch all of America and we have dentists around the country for this reason. Because when people can't figure out their problem, right? Whether it's the anxiety, the sleep problems, the brain fog, the gut problems, how many people do not look here, right? I mean, your gut. He's pointing to his mouth if you're listening. Oh yeah, you're right. We have viewers and listeners, so I have to be look here, right? I mean, your gut. He's pointing to his mouth if you're listening.

Oh yeah, you're right. We have viewers and listeners, so I have to be more descriptive, right? In the mouth, right? It's like so much disease starts right here, especially chronic disease. And by the way, we have so many people who have gut problems.

Yeah, your immunity starts in your gut, et cetera, et cetera, but really your gut starts in your mouth. And that's what the problem often is. That's very interesting. And it's not just mercury fillings, by the way, there's things called cavitations, which are hidden infections that you have no pain and no clue. They're there.

Well, like say you got a wisdom tooth out when you were 12 years old. Now there's a 80 some percent chance that that heals over and leaves a cavitation. That is like a cavity in your jaw that brings infection into your bloodstream continually, drives autoimmune, drives unexplainable symptoms and illnesses, gut problems, you can keep going down the list. And people were trying to use all these probiotics,

fixing their gut and taking hormones, trying to fix their hormones, and they didn't look right here. I'm putting it in my mouth again Dr. Jerry if anyone's listening is a really great place to start basically he audited Michael and my whole mouth and He is totally against root canals Which yeah, I'm sure you are too He does not like root canals and I've talked to a lot of doctors about root canals and it is fucked up Yeah, the link of between root canals and a lot of different

things. Yes. Root canals, by the way, there was a study done, I've boyed Haley at the iaomt.org. They took dentists from around the country and they were sending in root canals. Root canals that weren't bothering people were most of them. Root canals they just took out. 100% of the root canals had deadly infections associated with them. These are called anaerobic bacteria.

They are deadly. They will drive autoimmune. They will make gut problems. And yet all of the root canals had them. So I am under the belief that there is no safe root canals. And when I was sick, I got mine out. I had no problems with it, but I said, take it out. So at the core of this though is some people listening, they're like, I have that or I

have that, but I don't have any symptoms. It's like their bucket has not yet been overfilled, but as things accumulate more toxins, more procedures, more whatever, at some point if that bucket gets overloaded, then everything can start to fall apart. Michael, unknowing to me, my bucket was filling. I lived a healthy life, right? But when I had those amalgams removed that day, mercury vaporized in the process and my bucket overflowed. And once that happens, your genes start getting triggered, things start happening, right? And that's exactly what happened.

By the way, you know what the number one source of mercury is? Our moms. There's a study called the Drash study, a German study. It was the first to show that ladies, the number of fillings that you have in your mom had is proportional to how much they found in the baby's brain and utero. That was an autopsy study. So if you had six fillings when that child was

born, yeah, proportionally on the autopsy study, that's how much mercury they found in the baby's brain. That's where it starts. That's what happened to me. Now that was just one of my exposures. Oh, you know what the number one source of lead is? Moms. Because most lead is stored in the bones. Moms get blamed for everything. This is some bullshit. Yeah, dads, we have our problems. We have our problems. But anyways.

I knew that was coming. What is your sperm carrying? Yeah, I knew that was coming too. But the fact is, is that it's normal to lose bone during pregnancy because of hormone shifts, but out comes the lead in utero. When I do a lecture on heavy metals, I show my wife's lead level, which was off the chart.

There's a whole story there, how we found that. And then I show my sons, all my biological sons, their lead was off the chart. Where did they get it? They got it from mom. So what is lead from usually? Well, we grew up in the lead generation, right? Well, depends on our age, but 1978, it was in everything, every paint, every home, every window.

You test a dust in a home built before 1978, every time there's lead in the dust. Because- Cooking supplies? It was in everything, paint on everything. Pencils? Everything. Oh yeah, like lead pencils? It's like everything had lead.

But the point was is then, I mean, they took it out, but our parents grew up in the lead generation, I grew up in the lead generation. And so we have that in our tissue. What are three to five things that you would avoid, like the plague, for anyone who's listening? Like what do you think is really important that you value to just not have near you? Have near me. I hate fragrance. We already discussed that. But here's the problem with fragrance and here's what everyone can change and should change immediately.

We talked about water. Okay. But the fragrances in with their washing their clothes in fabric softeners, okay. The here's why fray and plugins and fragrances in everything, dish soaps, you know, Michael's hair gel that I can't convince. I hate that shampoo. Right? So the fragrance is a massive toxin. Here's why, there's a reason.

Because it is, they have IP laws, intellectual property protection over fragrances that they do not have to expose what is in them. So chemicals that have been outlawed for years because they're known cancer causers, hormone disruptors, they are still in fragrance. And they're there legally. We know a very, very wealthy gentleman

that made all of his money by going to the big fragrance companies and basically copying them, calling something different. They could not do anything about it because you don't have to disclose all of these reasons and then just undercutting back at the long time ago These are much older gentlemen now, but he made a living basically being able to do this because of what you're talking about There's no recourse on being able to cut you can't like a trademark of fragrance

Absolutely. So when I was very chemically sick any fragrance would send me Absolutely reeling. I mean it would, that's how toxic it is. So remember I was the canary in the coal mine. Did I just date myself even with that? Do people know what that is? I do. You do? Yeah.

Okay. That means canaries, they were literally, they are. They're so chemically sensitive that they die first. So they brought them into the mines. They become a barometer for the safety of the air. And then the miners had time to get out if the canaries died. But that became me, right?

So fragrance would just set me off like that. What were, what are your other things that you would avoid at all costs? Well, let's see. I would avoid at all costs. Well, I mean, I avoid mold at all costs because mold is absolutely deadly. So when my wife and I walk into a hotel room, I can smell avoid mold at all cost because mold is absolutely deadly So when my wife and I walk into a hotel room, I can smell it a mile away. What's it smell like?

Well depends some smells like cat urine. Hey, there's a type of mold some smells like, you know, like a teenager's Bedroom socks, I know he has that musty odor Some molds have like a, like a wood smell, like a wet wood smell. What do you do if you check into a hotel room and you can smell mold? What's your- Well, one thing you can do is always go into the hotel, lift up the, the, the,

what do you call it? The toilet. What's the thing on the top? The toilet lid, but not the lid. Not the lid, the thing that has the- Covers the water in the back, like the back of the lid. The main lid. I don that has the... It covers the water in the back. Like the back of the lid. The main lid.

I don't know. Yeah. What do you call that? You guys stare at it all day when you pee. Tank. The tank lid. The tank lid. My wife's over there.

Thank you. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. My wife's over here. You think we need to learn a few things doing this show for as long as we do, don't you? Tank, right. The tank lid. Anyways, lift it up.

If you see a black ring around that, there's mold in that room. Why? Because there's water. What if that happens at your house? There's mold. Yeah, so go in your home right now if you're listening, this is fun, lift up your tank lid and there should be no black around there.

The reason is, is because if you have mold, that means it's accumulating where water is always laying. So that's a really good simple test that you can do to see if you have mold. So mold is a real problem. Anything else that you would avoid at all costs? Well, yeah, my wife's giving me symptoms. I don't know what this means,

but you mean breast implants, honey? Well, I'm gonna avoid that anyway, okay. Yeah, so no, it's funny. Cancel your penis implant appointment. Exactly. Yeah. Well, I mean, I, I say that because I, I see what makes people sick, right?

And breast implants are a big thing coming. That's people don't understand why. She had, if she did a whole, we did a whole episode with Dr. Whitfield out here. She had hers removed and we did a whole, she documented the whole thing and we talked all about it. Yeah.

Well, it's people are learning, but it's going to be a slow road to learn because what people say is I feel fine. It's like silver fillings, right? You feel fine until you don't feel fine, right? But I mean, yeah, so it's not that I'm getting those, but I think those are extremely toxic. But the point is, is though, I mean, I think that when you look at your everyday life, you know, even avoiding the foods on the dirty dozen is very important, right? Because the amount of glyphosate, which is a chemical that causes many problems, you see it right now, commercials on television, awarding people millions, I think it's billions of dollars now, because of the damages and the cancer-causing effects of this chemical

that's being sprayed on our food even now to this day. Sixty percent of the rainfall has it in it, but the fact is, is we're still eating foods massively contaminated with this glyphosate. Yes, it's causing gut problems, and that's why we have gluten problems today. Yes, it's opening up the blood-brain barrier and making the heavy metals and other chemicals you're already exposed to going deeper. 2012 study, senior scientist at MIT, Stephanie Sena, she was the first one to show in that study that glyphosate opens up the protective barrier of the brain and is allowing these

heavy metals like mercury and aluminum to go deeper into the brain driving Alzheimer's dementia in so many of the conditions autism that we're seeing explode today. Oh and by the way Aluminum right now major major issue because they're putting it in jet fuel to make jets more efficient, right? It saves them billions of dollars, but it's falling out of the sky Right because hey, it makes the fuel more efficient, and yeah, that's a big business. No one on the planet wants bad breath. There's no one that's like, hey, I really want bad breath. So I have to tell you about Smart Mouth.

Smart Mouth is the only mouthwash that's scientifically proven to eliminate and prevent bad breath for 24 hours with just two rinses a day. So here's why I think this brand is really interesting. It has a unique dual chamber bottle, so there's two powerful solutions in it, and they're separate until you're ready to rinse. When you pour two solutions in the cup, you're activating this thing called smart zinc technology. And basically what this is, is a zinc ion activation.

And that is the key to eliminating and preventing sulfur gas. Guess what sulfur gas is? It's bad breath. So they truly like found what is causing bad breath, which is sulfur gas, and they created this really cool zinc technology to prevent it so you don't have to worry about it. The secret to all day fresh breath is really Smart Mouth because not only was it developed by a dentist, it's also dentist recommended.

So it's all the rage behind the scenes, and here's the most important part of this. Smart Mouth prevents bad breath 12 times longer than the leading brand. So you don't have to worry, like I said. Never have bad breath again. Find SmartMouth at Walgreens, Walmart, Amazon, or visit smartmouth.com slash skinny

We had our first emergency visit. My son Townes went to the emergency room. He fell on a piece of my workout equipment. It was a whole scene.

Michael was freaking out and he cut his head open. He was so cute. We had to take him to the emergency room very late at night and he had to get three stitches. And I was very, very sad as a mother, you guys know. So interactive skin repair. This is something that I have been using since I invited the founder on the show.

It's a molecule called hypochlorous acid. And basically when it's applied to the skin, the molecule works by mimicking the natural immune response to cleanse, soothe irritation, and reduce inflammation and support healing, which is what I wanted for towns. So it comes in a spray bottle. The one that I used on him was the kids one.

They have a baby one and they have an adult one. And I have to tell you it has been probably two months since his cut and his cut on his head, on his head, is looking so much better and I use this every single day. You could also use this on scrapes, burns, sunburns, rashes. I had a little bit of dermatitis around my nose and I sprayed it. Once you go down a rabbit hole of what a lot of these products actually are for healing it's really gross but this one is just really non-toxic and it works anywhere like I said. So I sprayed it like in my nostrils when I had dermatitis. It's amazing I have it in every room. Visit

Prenatal is very very important when you're pregnant in my opinion and the prenatal that I take is extensively researched. I did my own personal research when picking a prenatal and I've picked the same one for all three of my kids and that's ritual. I like this one because it's traceable. It has omega-3 DHA. The DHA part is crucial. This supports fatty acid content of breast milk, which is great if you want a breast feed.

And it also has vitamins A, C, D3, and zinc, which helps support the normal immune function. And then biotin, which really helps increased nutrient requirement during lactation. So it's almost like setting you up to be feeling really good post-pregnancy too. This particular vitamin by Ritual is third party tested. So they test for allergens. They even test for heavy metals.

A lot of supplements have heavy metals, and this one does not. Everything's traceable. You can go see where everything comes from. They're very serious about being non-GMO, project verified, gluten and major allergen free. And most importantly, and my favorite thing, is you can see where everything comes from. When it comes to pregnancy and postpartum support, you want products that are backed by research

It's like a very famous oatmeal brand. That's like organic gluten free. It hits all the spots. And then someone told me to look into glyphosate glyphosate. Okay. So, and I looked at it and it had, it was sprayed with that. Oatmeal is loaded with glyphosate? Glyphosate. So, and I looked at it and it had, it was sprayed with that. Oatmeal's loaded with glyphosate. But I found one online that's by a farmer. It's like called One Day at a Time or something. And it's glyphosate. Glyphosate.

Free. And it was the only one that I could find online that had that. Which is fucked because you think you're like buying oatmeal being like healthy and it's just sprayed with it. Yeah, you know, it's yeah Oh, it's not that great for you. Anyway. Yeah, exactly I use it for my waffles to make them three ingredient waffles. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Better off with an egg maybe. You know, I think when you look at something that, to answer part of your question, if you're using Tide or these, I don't even know what some of these companies that make the

detergent that we wash our clothes in, and Fabric Softener. I hate Fab fabric softener. I would, I hate fabric softener. It's another one when I was sick. My, once I was, you know, in a working environment, my team would literally had words to warn me. And one was bounce, bounce baby. Because that was a marketing thing for bounce. Do you remember bounce?

Okay. So they would say bounce, bounce, baby. And that means that someone came was coming in my office with massive fabric softener and it would ruin my day. Well, it can't you can smell it on the clothes. Oh, yeah. No, you can smell when you walk down the street. I did a video, an Instagram video, my wife and I are walking down the street, walking our dogs. And I could say I could tell every house that has hormone problems, how's that? Because everyone that's piping out that smell,

like literally, you could say, that house is giving fabric softener, like I wanna knock on their door and warn them, like that's a hormone disruptor. Like you should stop using it and watch the health of your family get better because they're compensating with hormones and all these things when they're using

a massive hormone disruptor, fabric softener. I wouldn't touch it for the world. That's probably my other big pet peeve. Here's where I struggle. I am like you where I'm very sensitive and I'm very aware, sometimes almost hyper aware, as Michael would call it, but how do I also live a normal life?

Because we're living in the world where there are these things. I can't change everyone. Like you said, you can't go in the houses and tell these people this. How do you create that balance without going fucking crazy? Well, and unfortunately, when you remove these things, for me in particular, I'm not as sensitive,

but we don't have any of these products in the house anymore. Besides your hair gel and hairspray of these products in the house anymore. Besides your hair gel and hairspray that he brings in the bed and sleeps on the pillow case every night. Besides that, come on. Please, I know, please. I-

Please. Have gone through this with you before. And then he wraps my barefoot dreams over his helmet head of the- Lauren, I have gone through this with you before. Oh my God, this is what it is. You will literally have somebody come over with a paint booth gun and give you a spray tan. Not in our house, never in our house.

Oh, this is fun. Never in our house. In the hotel room. Oh, I did a video on that. Never in the house. Lauren, bullshit. Never ever has anyone spray tanned me. When we lived in LA, were they in?

LA was different. I've evolved since LA. That was five years ago. If you guys do a podcast together, this is what it'll be like. Wait, but can you tell him about sleeping with his hair gel in the bed? Yeah, it's not, Michael. It's not good. I was breathing it in all night.

I got a new brand, Jack Henry. Jack Henry is the new brand. It's clean. It's clean. What about the hairspray? Organic bunny gave it to me. What about the hairspray? Hairspray's not so clean.

Please stop with your hairspray. But you know, you gotta live a little bit. Okay, if you're gonna go- No, no, they have alternatives for everything. You just have to value it enough to dig in there. If you're going to wear it, that's fine, but just take a shower before you get in bed. Okay, fair enough.

But I guess back to what I was asking before I was so rudely interrupted. How do you not go crazy? Was, what I noticed is like when you remove these things and you get them out and you stop using them, you become even more aware of them when you get them used. It's almost like you're blind. A lot of people are like, I don't have these issues. You don't notice it when you're using them.

It's just like, it's just part of your daily, you know, it's just like your scent. But then when you get rid of this stuff, like we switched to Branch Basics and all the cleaning supplies and there's no more fragrance. And then you become more aware. See, what is that, Michael? It's your body warning you. Right? I mean, you know, so we have, God gave us sensors, right?

For a reason, to save our life, right? We have a lot of different sensors. That's why we don't touch hot stoves, right? That's why we have a nose, go, wait a minute, I know that smell, oh my gosh, we're in danger, right? It's like, that's why I walk in, I smell mold. My body made me, I can smell mold where other people can't smell a darn thing.

Why? Because my body warned me, this is bad for you. So when you get rid of things, your senses go up, trust in it. So it doesn't make it healthier when you don't notice it. I agree. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, so I mean, look, these things, part of that question one of you asked was like, how do we live a normal life, right?

First of all, when you empty your bucket out, this is what I've spent my adult career doing is like showing people how to empty that bucket correctly because in our space, everybody does it wrong. But the fact is, is we can get the bucket lower. Now we can actually live a more normal life. I don't react like that anymore, right? That said, I can use this little sense here

as my warning to move away now, and I can live a normal life. So how do you make it not make you crazy? Look, it doesn't give me symptoms anymore, but if someone was sitting here with fabric softener on, yeah, I'm bothered by it, and I'd probably want to do this. I used to always pull my shirt up over my nose even when people like were on an airplane

if they had perfume or clown on. I'd literally sit there like this the whole time. I'm like, maybe we're going to advocate on this show to go back to masks. It'd be the first time we ever did. I don't want to breathe in the microplastics and masks. Yeah, yeah. I was never a mask fan regardless. No, no. But that's a whole nother topic. But the fact is, that's a whole nother topic. We won't take you there, we've moved on. You know, I was kind of shocked when I come to Austin. See, I got sucked in now.

When I come to Austin, I'm like, I see people with masks on here, like a lot. Really? Yeah, more so than other places. Well, I will say this, listen, I love Austin, but I told one of my friends very excitedly who's from Houston, I said, yo, I'm moving to Texas. He said, where?

I said, Austin. He goes, that's not Texas. And I said, what? And I was super confused by what he meant, but it's a little different than other places in Texas. And I love it. I think like it's a good melting pot. It's a mix.

Yeah. I just couldn't help noticing that. But anyway, so, okay. I'm still caught on this thing of just living normal life because I live a normal life. I just live a less toxic life. You know what I'm saying? Meaning I choose better toilet paper. That's a choice.

That doesn't affect my life, right? I mean, in other words, all we have to do is the things we can control, control them. I don't stress about the things I can't control anymore. I don't, right? Because I can't control them. But if you take control of the things you, what you're washing you and your children's clothes on,

you can control. The toilet paper, you can control. The fragrances, you can control. The shampoo you use, you can control. The water you drink, we can control. And that's what I do. So I live a very normal life. I just choose to live a more toxic free life.

Not perfect. They'll never, we'll never stop the exposures that we get. Some of them. Let's talk about toilet paper, okay? You are an expert in this. What is really in most toilet papers? What do people have no idea that's in there? There's something called dioxins, okay?

Dioxins for years have been known to cause cancer even at low levels. Well, dioxins are in there because they use certain chemicals to basically make it nice and white. So when they bleach this paper to make it look clean and we like that look, well, dioxins are formed and it holds those dioxins. Here's the problem, you're putting that in an area that has very absorbent types of cells and tissues and thereby, oh and by the way, and in that area, I hope everyone can understand where I'm talking about, is very close to organs and glands that are

very sensitive to cancer or these chemicals that can drive bad cells and drive cancer. So putting that right in those areas every day, day in day out, is not a good idea. I refuse to do it. Okay, so the bleaching agent is not good. You want chlorine-free, non-bleached toilet paper. The other problem is they use formaldehyde. Formaldehyde, known cancer cause or hormone disruptor. Why do they do that? Because they use it to hold, to make it stronger, right? So you want a, if you're going to invest in your family,

invest in good toilet paper. Ours is chlorine free and formaldehyde free. You would be very happy with it. And I'm walking out with one of those because if you see my Instagram, my wife and I always travel with our own toilet paper. And what's the brand that you guys normally use? The Whole Foods brand is a good brand, actually.

It's formaldehyde free, it's chlorine free. Ours is unscented, there's no scent. Yeah, well, how do we get yours is the better question. Well, it launches, while this episode is up, it's already launched. We're going to give you some. It launched on April Fool's. Yeah. Because people thought I would be joking.

I'm not fucking joking, toilet paper is disgusting. Yeah, so this is one of those these big ones, right? Like, you know, we're kind of talking about right what you wash your clothes in big one, you know What you the water you drink that's a big one what you're wiping your butt You're putting your butt every day because of those tissues. That's a big one, right? We could talk about female hygiene products IG shut my video down because it was like I'm saying What was a study I sent them'm saying, what was a study? I sent them the study and this was a unique time.

They actually reversed it. But I actually had this, send the study showing, yes, these female products have heavy metals and toxins that are known cancer gauzes. We're putting them on those tissues. And I quoted a study. Tampons. I can't wear tampons.

Don't even get me started. I've been, I've told my friends since I was in high school, I a study, tampons. I can't with tampons, don't even get me started. I've been, I've told my friends since I was in high school, I don't wear tampons, they're like, ew, you're so gross, what do you use? I'm like, I am not gonna stick something up there for eight hours and let it sit and marinate in my vagina. Yeah, on those tissues. That I don't know where it came from.

By the way, in the plastic applicator, I don't, I I've never I've always energetically been like something's weird there What is in tampons that people don't realize? Oh gosh? I mean we've talked about formaldehyde We've talked about dioxins all of those that are in toilet paper are in those as well in that study that I was just talking About was showing the heavy metals and that study that I was just talking about was showing the heavy metals, arsenic, lead, I mean cadmium, I'm going by memory here, I mean were like massive and it was ridiculous. And again, if you're wiping your face with it,

it's one thing, but in those tissues, it's very absorbent. And for a little girl who just turned 13, to be like here, it's just so wild. And then if they have fragrance, we already had the fragrance talk. I mean, it's a whole nother level of you don't even know what cancer causing hormone disrupting chemicals are in there. And that is a big problem. Listen, I hope people hear this.

It's like we're talking about something that our parents didn't have to deal with. The chemical revolution started after World War II, but it has exploded in the last 20, 30 years to the point where if you desire to not die or be affected by all of these top conditions like cancer and you name it, diabetes, thyroid problems, blah, blah, blah, blah, you go down the list, autoimmune, then you better pay attention to what you're bringing in your homes and putting in and on your bodies. You just better. I mean, this isn't some weird thing we're talking about. This isn't fringe. It's not my opinion that cancer rates are soaring in children right now in the last 20 years have raised 60%. I mean, this is not my opinion here.

And this is chemicals. It's like, and all the experts know it's chemicals, right? This is what's happening to our world right now. And yet what's in vogue is trying to fix hormone problems by taking hormones. There's a time and a place. I'm not being completely critical here, but the big causative factor

are the toxins that we're exposed to. My biggest, proudest things that like what that makes me so happy and brings me so much joy is being able to protect my home and being like, what's the fountain cleaner you're using or what's the pool? Like I constantly am editing myself and being like how can I do better because you're so right You have to be like a soldier in front of your house and and what's wildest people will sneak it in I've had people sneak I could tell you stories about people sneaking stuff in whether it's the painter He is trying to use a paint thinner that I said no to or like Cleaning supply you have to constantly be diligent

on making sure it doesn't get in the home. Well, there's still a lot of people, even people listening to this that will completely say, like, I don't believe any of this total horse shit, total be like, the moment that I was converted, it was years ago and our friend Shervin who has a company called Symbiotic. Yeah, we know.

So he basically, he said something that really just resonated with me. I think it was him. And he said, we're doing all of these things with these scents and fragrances to mask what you talked about earlier, what our body is trying to signal to us. Like, why do you have this BO that you need to put all this deodorant on? Like, why do you smell bad? Why does your breath smell?

Why, like it's your body saying something is wrong and signaling to you so that you can fix it. And what we've done as a society is we've masked that scent and hidden those signals so we can never tell and all of a sudden the symptoms overrun us. That's what they do to the vagina. That's what they do. They say, oh, you think your vagina smells? Here's a douche. Oh, you think your vagina smells?

Here's a body wash. Here's your breath smells? Use mouthwash. By the way, mouthwash, you know how Jerry talked about this? Mouthwash kills a bacteria in your mouth that you need to produce something called nitric oxide. What does that do? Well, it violates your vessels and brings oxygen into your cells. Well, the study showed, and they did this in young men, that just using it for seven days raised their blood pressure. Why did it raise their blood pressure? Young men who had no blood pressure problem, well, it raised it because it killed this

bacteria that makes nitric oxide. Nitric oxide keeps our vessels dilating so we don't get high blood pressure, got high blood pressure. Yeah. Oh, and by the way, it also kills bacteria, again, that we know by using mouthwash for just a short period of time affects the bacteria in your gut. And we have this world problem of gut problems and people are using mouthwash.

Don't use mouthwash, don't ever use mouthwash. This is like a super controversial, not controversial, it's just the truth. Over the years, people will come and talk to us about different deodorants. And I haven't worn deodorant since I was maybe 15, 12 or 15 years, she knows, ever. And I say that because I'm not masking any scent.

Like I don't have, but I've noticed like if I ever start to have that scent, it's likely because I'm sick or I'm detoxing something or something is off. And so I think like for people that have this extensive body odor, I'm not passing judgment. Like it's your body trying to say,

hey, there's an issue going on that you need to look into. My wife and I do not smell. And there's a reason for that, and that's the reason. By the way, I have to say this, men, no offense. Michael, no offense. Women are getting this way more. That's why I'm proud of my husband. You said, like, you know, there's people out there

going, these people are full of crap, right? It's like, no, no, no. Women are tuned into this. Like, moms are tuned into this. Men come along, you know, which you did. You know, but we are definitely later adapters than women on this. Because women are absolutely, they are intuitive

to the health of their children and their family, even their husband, right? Even far before their husband realizes there's a problem and they're sick, yeah, the wife realizes it. So they're the ones that are realizing the chemicals are making their kids sick. Yeah, I think, like, what I like about doing this show,

cause people ask me, as a man, I speak to a lot of women, but I tell other men when they ask me that, I said, well, ultimately at the end of the day, the women are gonna get the information and they're gonna act on the information much quicker than the men. And I know like in my life. What do you love about your wife?

I mean, like she's largely driven these conversations and these changes in their household. In the beginning, I was more resistant. Now I'm just like, okay, well, it's going to happen anyway. So I'm going to get on board. But now I'm also way more receptive to it. Cause a lot of the things that she was early on have now become mainstream. I mean, the fact that were that there are people in the current

administration that are talking about issues now that were fringe. If you were to talk about some of the things we're talking about today on this show, four or five years ago People are up in arms. They weren't they weren't ready You started saying mouthwash and you sort of do it like fragrance cleaning supplies people would just say like oh look at this There's been an awakening I can feel it journalists will write about this show and they'll call us like what is like pseudo science or Or woo-woo, yeah, they've called us Woo Woo.

And I'm like. You know, you know. You gotta wonder though, like I feel, I'm empathetic to those people because it's going to disrupt a lot of things and it's going to change a lot of the way that we behave. But I'm super passionate that it's also gonna save a lot of lives. Oh, listen, we have no choice.

We have to shift. Listen, you have to vote with your dollars, right? Meaning that when we start reaching for healthier products, they're gonna start making more healthier alternatives, right, and that we see that happening right now. I mean, I feel that, but the problem is, is that we have an industry that is very powerful and it's cheaper and easier to make toxic products.

It just is. Right. So we're paying a premium right now, but it's going to continue to get out. You look at ingredients sometimes on like a shower gel, let's say, and there's 7,000 ingredients in it. And sometimes I'm just like, couldn't they just have put like, like Jehovah oil and like, I don't know. I don't get why it has to be like so-

Well, a part of it's that big IP thing, right? Like they make it very complicated, you know, because they don't want people to knock off their product. Yeah, it's very frustrating. And it becomes a chemical solution and yeah, it's poison. Yeah, it's funny though, because, you know, as you develop a platform, which I'm sure you've discovered, you will see some of that stuff at work. And we kind of just try to ignore it and stay away from it.

We don't really address it. But I guarantee, like, have, you know, even this conversation. If an article gets written, certain people will try to discredit the whole conversation by discrediting the person. Yeah. Woo-woo, pseudo, like, all that stuff. And it's done in a way so that if people start to look

at the information and say, like, I want to hear what this guy has to say, when you lead with a headline like that, it's like, oh, say, like, I want to hear what this guy has to say, when you lead with a headline like that, it's like, oh, actually, like, everything he said is irrelevant. It's a mass discreteration of people that are trying to get this information. And my whole thing is, here's the information,

now do with it what you want. If you still want to use the fabric softener and the tie and the Windex and all the deodorants and all the mouthwash. Or turn me off. Yeah, by all means, go ahead. I like that too, yeah. Change the channel. This is for the people that are like,

okay, I want the information, and then I wanna be able to deduce what the right decision is. What brand of baby wipes do you like? Do you have a brand? Honey, I haven't had a baby in so many years. I know, but we need to know, I feel like that's something you should do a post on,

because I use so many baby wipes every day and moms are using them all the time and I Was using one of the most famous brands and guess what I got triclosan in my blood. I had triclosan Oh my gosh. Yeah, I mean that is an antibacterial That I they're taking it out of things was shown to cause cause liver cancer. And yet it's still in products. I mean, by the way, hand sanitizers. Okay, yeah, okay, there you go. There's another one that I will never ever do for many reasons.

Hand sanitizers, right? It's like, first of all, here's what people don't understand. This became a thing, a bigger thing with COVID. I mean- There's a company that just got funded like a billion dollar donation. I have something to admit. I've never used a hand sanitizer during COVID, not once.

Neither, not once, not one time. So anyone who shook my hand, sorry, never used a hand sanitizer. No, but see, what people don't realize is you're destroying your force field. That's why I didn't wanna do it. Exactly. If you understood the microbiome,

that means all the bacteria that are on our hands that protect us, if it wasn't there, we'd be dead. Okay? It is the best protection. When you do that, your body has to remake and it goes through a process where you're vulnerable now to bacteria. The very thing that you're trying to kill, which you can't, the moment... It's so silly.

The moment you touch something else, now you're picking up a foreign bacteria. And now, because you use hand sanitizer, now you have no force field. Now you have no protection. Because it is the greatest protection is the bacteria that is on us. And that is a microbiome. By the way, the healthier you are,

the better microbiome you have even on your skin. And by the way, that same microbiome communicates with your microbiome in your gut. So if you keep killing your microbiome on your skin. And by the way, that same microbiome communicates with your microbiome in your gut. So if you keep killing your microbiome on your hands, studies show it affects your gut. Tell Michael and everyone about baby monitors because you went viral for this. I'm so glad you said that. Yeah, because baby monitors are extremely high in radio frequency, electromagnetic radio frequency, EMF as it's known. Well, it's extremely high. I measured it just to show people how high it is.

I tell people never ever put a phone right here, always use speakerphone, distance is your friend. Well, these monitors are so high, you would literally, I showed, you'd have to bring it all the way across the room, for it to be at least a safe level, but you're still raising the level of radio frequency, radiation in that baby's room.

What about the ones that don't have wifi? Well, that's what you need. You need the wire-in-in one. Now companies are making them because of this, where you can wire it in. That's what you do. And you can do wire-in video still, right? you can wire it in. That's what you do. Because, and you can do wire in videos still, right? You can have it wired in and still do that.

But yes, hire somebody and have them wired in. How do you protect your home from EMF? And do you have a wifi kill switch? Like, what do you do? Okay, multiple things. We're buying a new home right now. I had my guy come in, he measured everything. And I have a device to measure

it myself, but he does all kinds of different ways of measuring it. Is it test my home, Ryan? Yeah, Ryan. Ryan Blazer. Oh my God, that is so funny. Yeah, we love Ryan. Love Ryan. He tested our home too. Yeah, it's great. I knew you were going to say that.

I bet your mind was lower. That's my guy too. That's my guy too. We share a lot of the same guys. Ryan was like, I can't believe how low this home is. Ryan, Josh, who else we got? Dr. Jerry, office room. Yeah, exactly. Josh, Josh, who else we got? Dr. Jerry.

Yeah, exactly. Josh, our same body worker. When I build a house, Ryan, I need you to come tell me every single last nail butthole to do on my house. Yeah, no, exactly. That's what we, I have sent Ryan out. I have to tell this quick story because we're talking about this very thing, right?

This girl, Ryan and I just happened to be at the same home in Arizona, but he was there for a different reason. I was there for a different reason. But the little girl in the home, she had migraine headaches, debilitating migraine headaches, night terrors, panic attacks. And I thought it was a mold problem. I thought it was a mold problem. Ryan thought it was a mold problem. He was measuring the mold,

trying to figure out the situation. Well, as it turned out, it was the amount of EMF coming off the wall where she slept. So her head was right where the highest level of this radio frequency, electromagnetic frequency was. The refrigerator was on the other side of that wall.

He told this story on our podcast too and said like it solved all her problems. Every problem, like instantly. Okay. I, you know, so I think it's a good story to show you that, you know, so to answer your question, what do you do? First of all, where's your router?

Make sure your router is nowhere near your, your bedroom, your kid's bedroom. And if it is, if it is, you can just hit the switch, your fuse box switch. And now they even have a device where you could put next to your bed that connects to the switch so you don't have to walk downstairs if that's a problem and hit the switch, but you can turn off your electricity in your room. If you want to change your sleep overnight, turn off the electricity in your bedroom and watch how much better you sleep. But here's the thing about that.

So I have my Jasper going. Yeah, I know it. So I don't do that, okay? I don't have to do that because I've lowered the EMF so low in our room that I don't have to do that. How have you done that? I'm giving you a choice if like, I can't do that and I want to the EMF so low in our room that I don't have to do that. How have you done that? I'm giving you a choice if like, I can't do that and I want to sleep better right now. Yeah, because I do.

I want to, my Jasper's going, that's my air filter that has good carbon. My chimes. Yeah, the noise thing. Right, so you don't want to do that. But you could at least also, if your router is there, you could turn off your router only and they have switches where you can actually turn down the router. And you can do like a kill switch on your Wi-Fi? You can do a kill switch on your Wi-Fi.

A lot of people also, they have like TVs and routers and cable boxes in their bedroom. We have all that stuff out. So really like at night for us, electronics wise, it's the Jasper and the 8 Sleep. What about the phone? I imagine it very little comes off of those types of things though. What about the phone in the bedroom, even if What about like the phone? I imagine it very little comes off of those types of things though. What about the phone in the bedroom? Even if it's across the room. Oh no, I mean, you have to turn the phone off,

you know, at least airplane mode. You don't not want that next to your bed on. Absolutely not good. So can you, would you recommend turning it off or turning it on airplane mode? Airplane mode works. I mean, I've tested mine. I have a device, right?

So when it's on airplane mode, it's not giving off the Wi-Fi. But the bigger thing again, because I think people are like, wow, how extreme is this? The bigger thing is like, if you're sleeping with your head next to your phone or a router or against a wall with a bunch of electronics or a cable box. That's a big deal, man. No, that's a big deal.

Yeah, that's the thing. We can't avoid, it's the toxic conversation again. We can't avoid all of the EMF that's coming into us, right? It's impossible. But again, what can you control? Putting a phone on your ear is not my opinion. But again, what can you control? Putting a phone on your ear is not my opinion. I mean, that leads to tumors eventually when it's there done long enough. Stop doing it. Put it on speakerphone. It's something so easy to do.

One of the biggest things you can do to get your health under control to manage your weight is to eat amazing home cooked meals and stop using other delivery services, eating out, fast food, all the things we know we shouldn't be eating. Sometimes you want a little bit more flavor when it comes to cooking at home and let's be honest, most of us aren't chefs. I sure as hell am not. This is why we love Primal Kitchen so much.

Lauren and I have been doing this podcast now for close to a decade. And one thing that has changed drastically in this last decade is our personal health.

And one of the biggest contributors to that change is that we have made healthier choices and healthier swaps in our house, in our home life, what we eat, what we consume, what we drink and what we clean our house with. This is why I'm so excited to talk about Branch Basics and I'm always excited to talk about Branch Basics. We have had the founders of Branch Basics on this podcast twice now to talk about everything they're doing in the clean home space. What I love about their products is their premium starter kit replaces dozens of toxic

cleaners with just one powerful plant and mineral-based concentrate. There's no synthetic fragrances, no harsh chemicals, no hormone disruptors, just real effective cleaning that's safe for babies, pets, and the planet. Here's the thing. If there are better, less harmful solutions when it comes to household supplies, what we eat, what we consume, what we clean with, why are we not making the switch? That's the light bulb moment that went off for me when I was

introduced to these products. And making the switch was super simple. It was also cost-effective. No longer do I have to have all to these products and making the switch was super simple. It was also cost effective. No longer do I have to have all these chemical products laying around the house. I can use just the Branch Basics Premium Strutter Kit and it replaces all of those products. You can use it to tackle everything from counters, bathrooms, laundry, even washing your produce with one simple fragrance-free formula that actually works.

My daughter is using the toilet paper, my husband's using it. I went on this like wild goose chase to find the best toilet paper on the market. And while I found some brands that were great, I also wanted to create something better.

And so that's what we've done at the Skinny Confidential. We have created a better choice. I was involved in every single detail of this toilet paper.

Maria Menounos has had brain cancer and she was just on a podcast I heard her and she said that one of like the main reasons that people are getting it is from AirPod, the Apple AirPods because they connect to your phone. What is your opinion on that? I measured that. I did an Instagram I showed people it was thousands of times higher than when you're wired in. Oh, so we put put it next to it. I mean When you see the level on the device in the video I did go

You know is like I mean you you can't argue with that and that's's going right into your brain, right into your brain, right? So I never, I see people in our space, like healthy space, you know, that we're in with those in their ears. And I go like, my gosh, it's like, it's the water conversation. I say, like, if you knew what was in that water, you're drinking, you wouldn't drink it.

If I could do a test right now and show you the amount of hormones and the amount of Chemicals cancer-causing chemicals are there you'd be like yeah, I'm not drinking it problem is it's there And just because you don't see it doesn't not make it any less dangerous same with the Wi-Fi, right? It's like if you knew what those things were doing in your ears. You would never ever use those ever Can you believe that they're giving them at schools the Apple AirBods for kids to use on a device and then all the kids have the Apple Watch because their parents are like,

I'm not gonna give them a phone, I'm just gonna give them Apple Watch and then they sleep in the Apple Watch. The Apple Watch is giving off radiation all day long. Oh, and by the way, did you see the new study? The bands have forever chemicals in them. And the audience is like, oh my God, we're fucked.

Yeah, I know. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, so. But I think like, listen, the way I like to digest these things. Oh my gosh, there's so much to do. Because I know there's a lot of the audience is like, oh my God, what can we do? The thing is you just have to be conscious

of all these things and then decide what you're going to partake in and not partake in. Like if you want the Apple watch in it, like maybe do you need to sleep in it? Can you take it for a run? Do you need to wear it all day? May I, I wear a metal watch. Like there's, there's, no, the metal watch, that's fine. It's totally different. There's, there's, there's, like for me, I think the big thing is a lot of people don't have any of this information.

And then they're like, what the hell happened to me? And it's like, well, a lot of the changes we're asking you to make are not so insane. Like don't put your head next to the phone. Exactly. Don't put your, don't sleep next to Wi-Fi, you know, maybe change to a cleaner cleaning supply. Like maybe don't use a fragrance free. Yeah. Like there's, there's alternatives. These are changes that everyone could do like right away.

Do you think that, that minimizing your exposure to all these chemicals is also helping people get pregnant. Oh, there's no doubt. I mean, changing your water. Again, when there's birth control, as this new study is showing, levels of birth control in water. Yeah. I mean, it's no wonder you can't get pregnant.

And by the way, high mercury plays a big role. I mean, there's other toxins that play a big role in why infertility right now is a big problem for many people. It's a toxic issue, nine out of 10 times. I think my personal issue with this overall health space is some of the, I've seen some people going off the deep end in the minutia, I know seed oils are a big deal, I know the water's a big deal, I know all of these things we understand, but at the same time, it was like, I know seed oils are a big deal. I know the water's a big deal. I know like all of these things we understand,

but at the same time, it's like, they're missing some of the big buckets. Like, what's your sleep like? Are you getting to the gym? Do you have a well-rounded diet? I think water's a big one. Sure, all these things. But the point is, is, you know,

I've said this so many times on the show, I don't want to hear someone in the health influencer space screaming about a seed oil that's in one chain store when they haven't been to the gym in eight months and they can't lift a bag of books off the floor. Let's talk about seed oils. I'm happy to talk about seed oils. Listen, I do say that we need to focus on the majors, right? In my space you have a lot of people fussing over a lot of little things, right? They're expensive biohacks and different things like that.

That's fun. That's what I'm saying. I like doing it too, right? So no critique here, but fact is is that they're missing the big things, right? The big things. I mean, again, if you can't afford all organic, you know, you saw the Atrazine study. You mentioned it, I think, Lauren.

The Atrazine study was the company that makes this chemical, this pesticide, right? They hired this guy, what's his name? Tyrone Hayes, I think his name was, right? Brilliant scientist, right? They hired him to prove safety on their study. Well, poor Tyrone or whatever his name was, is he finds that this stuff is making frogs,

male frogs, female. And it's affecting literally the egg all the way up to where these frogs are turning. Which is where Alex said they're making the frogs gay. Yeah, so anyways, but so it's turning these frogs. Anyways, alarmed, he brings it to the company saying, hey, I mean, like we have to solve this, right? It was like, well, instead of solving the problem,

they just trashed him, right? Attacked the person instead of the problem because it was cheaper and easier, I guess. But this chemical is being sprayed on our food is known to literally make, you know, male frogs female change sex, it blocks, there's a process that it makes testosterone become estrogen. That's really what it does.

It's called aromatization and it's an enzyme, it kills, blah, blah, blah. But it's happening. And yet our kids are still eating this. I mean, if you're eating non-organic food, you're being exposed. And the glyphosate, you're being exposed. If you can't afford organic,

at least from the clean 15, avoid the dirty dozen. What's a clean 15? Give us some examples. The clean 15, avocados, right? Thicker skin, things like that. On the dirty dozen, spinach, a lot of green leafies are on the dirty dozen. So strawberries are on the dirty dozen. The grapes are on the dirty dozen. The grapes are on the dirty dozen.

Things are spraying. Yeah. They're spraying more of these chemicals. They need a lot of chemicals and they absorb a lot of the chemicals, right? Whereas the clean 15, they're things that typically they don't need. They just not threat for certain pests. So you can Google what they are. But the point is, is we need to be very conscious about what these chemicals we're getting in our food, in our water. Obviously the average woman takes in 400 some chemicals

in her morning regime, 200 some, 287 I think, are known cancer causers. When you start the day, right, men we start with less products, but yet, you know. Unless you're Michael and you have the hair gel and the paste and the hairspray. Michael is way over. The hairspray.

That you bring in the bed. The whole thing. You know what, Lauren, you can keep calling me out. Wait till I circle around to the fake eyelashes. I saw you go viral for that. That was a big video. Yeah, real quiet over there in the corner. I have a brand that's always sold out

that is an eyelash glue brand that doesn't have all the things in it. All right, good, let's test that. I'm an ascended. No, I actually do want you to test it. Okay, yeah, good. But okay, so. I'll give you guys the praise in my place.

Women, so I had no idea that that video would go to 15 million views. Every girl wears them. I didn't know this, okay? So I always said I didn't like them, right? And so here's this is a funny story too. I got like three open loops. I'm going nuts. My son brings his new girlfriend. We meet her for the first time. My wife and I are meeting her for the first time and he says this is my girlfriend. He says her name and the next thing I was about to do and she's getting rid of the fake eyelashes

I swear. Okay. I mean this is my 21 year old son. Can you tell I'm wearing fake eyelashes right now? What's that? Can you tell I'm wearing them? I not from here. I can't okay. I can't that's all I'm being honest I'm not just you know being nice. But what you said in your video was you said like you weren't a fan I'm not a fan and and the women went wild on you because they were like, you didn't have to say you're not a fan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got slammed from every direction. I was like, oh, whatever.

You know, I didn't care because the problem is is that they are toxic as heck. This is a true story. So lashes are toxic or the glue? It's the glue. Well, I mean, arguably there's some chemicals in the lashes, but mostly the glue. I'm going to tell you the glue I use. Yeah, mostly the glue. Well, I mean, arguably there's some chemicals in the lashes, but mostly the glue. Okay, I'm going to tell you the glue I use.

Yeah, mostly the glue. Let's look at the ingredients live. Do not sell this out though, you guys. This is my favorite eyelash glue. So in there, I said how it can cause blindness, okay? And I quoted a study, but people were like, oh my gosh, I don't know anyone. True story. The gal who worked for me that wore fake eyelashes, okay, she literally the next week got some Dawn dish soap in her eye and rubbed it. It emulsified the glue. And she literally had to go to the emergency room,

her cornea detached. They were saying that she might lose her eyesight. To this day, she still doesn't have perfect eyesight. Fortunately, she didn't lose her eyesight, but massive blurred vision, couldn't see out of the eye. I mean, wore a patch for months. That's a true story. I mean, the irony of that.

And I brought that video, and people just saw I was making this shit up, so they didn't even, even like it didn't go anywhere Let's have you read the ingredients of the brand I like and tell me what's wrong with it if the brand that I use is called true It's always sold out and it's all natural lash adhesive and I give it to my makeup artists These are the ingredients, but I will not read them. You have to come get the phone because I'm Okay, read them. I don't know get the phone because I'm too embarrassed. Okay. Read them.

Cause I don't know how to say it. You gotta say it. Aqua. Water. Palulin. Rosa, Damascena. Rose water. Aloe barbadenesis. Aloe vera.

Okay. Leaf juice, glycerin, pelagonium, pelagononium, pelargonium, pelagonium, rosium, asparum oil, beeswax, Rhinic. There's a lot of ingredients. This is, right? Okay. So here's the thing, right? It's a biotin.

What you've read so far is a lot of stuff. Maybe I found a good one. I'm just saying. Yeah, you might've right. I hope it's a good one. Oh look, I might've found a good one. I hope it's a good one so Oh, look, I might have found a good one. You know what? I hope it's a good one so this company can get a win on the block. Yeah, I mean, like, there's a couple in here I don't know exactly, but I mean, this is way

better. Thank you. Because the one in the drug store, we all know the brand. It's the brand that every single girl knows. It's white and it has either pink or blue writing on it. You know what? Because formaldehyde in it., when we're done can we do an Instagram video? Yeah. Let's bring that because I was criticized you know for

not bringing an alternative so I mean I think. Anything with beauty call Lauren Bostic. There you go. I'm already getting your guys' phone number to text you a hundred questions. I'm gonna start it by listen y'all wanted a great, I didn't know. So I called Lauren Busting, here we go. And I got the answer. Before this episode airs, call this company and get us some stock in this business. Yeah, no kidding. We're about to blow this thing up.

Yeah, exactly. 15 million people watched one video about time. They all wanted an alternative. It's funny because like when people come on the podcast, I am not someone that's always like, oh, let's exchange numbers, you know, because we have a lot of different guests on. But you guys, you better bet your ass. I asked for you and Dr. Jerry's number medical medium came on.

I'm like, can I get your number? There's certain people that you just, they just know that when you have a question about like baby products or a wipe or a paper towel, you can text and be like, it's better than chat GPT. Exactly. Who needs these A-list celebrities? We need the people that know what the ingredients mean. That's what I mean. I don't care. Dr. Jerry, anytime I can call, I can ask him a question. He's great.

And he'll give you that laugh. Before you go, I do want to talk about detoxing. It's a huge buzzword and you have said people are doing it wrong. Yes. How do you do it? How can we detox from all these harmful chemicals in an effective way? You know, that's the thing.

You know, it's, if you want to be healthy today, you better learn how to detox correctly. And in our space, it's terrible. What they call detox, what they think is detox. Literally, my passion, my purpose, the reason I got sick, I am sure, is to really bring humanity the right way to detox. Okay, real detox is a cellular problem.

What do I mean by that without getting too technical? Your cells have pathways that get rid of toxins day in and day out. If they didn't, we'd be dead. Okay, so when that's working really good, you're really healthy. You're hormonally healthy all as well. But when those pathways start shutting down, slowing down,

you start accumulating toxins in your cell. What does that do? Starts triggering genes, see, because your DNA is in that cell and all of a sudden now you trigger a gene. It's called epigenetics, meaning the old dogma was, oh, you just had diabetes because your father or mother had it, right? No, that's bunk. Genes get triggered, they get turned on, but those toxins that are building up in the cell

starts turning on bad genes. Then your hormones get affected, why? Because hormones attach to receptors on the cell and have to get in the cell and you feel great. Thyroid works all as well. Estrogen, progesterone, testosterone. But what happens is when cells become toxic, they get inflamed.

And when they get inflamed, and everyone's hurt, inflammation is the cause of everything, cellular inflammation. So now you can't hear your hormones, so it doesn't matter what blood levels are. Remember I said, when I went, I spent all this money, all my hormone levels were normal. When I knew my testosterone was tanked,

I knew that my thyroid wasn't working right because my hair was thinning. I had every thyroid symptom. My blood works normal. What they didn't tell me is my cell was inflamed and I couldn't hear the hormone. It's like screaming at your kids and the more you scream, the louder you scream, the more hormones you take. They just hear you less and less and less.

That's what our cells, a toxic cell cannot hear hormones. Simple as that. So one of the first things we do when we look for people trying to figure out what's wrong is we measure their cellular inflammation. How much cellular inflammation do you have? If you have a lot, you're probably toxic. If you have a lot, you don't hear your hormones.

So how do you detox from it? So my process is, I have what I call my five Rs. That became a roadmap of what I use to teach doctors on how to upregulate these cellular pathways of detox. But now it's kind of caught on in the public. So my system is about fixing that cell, upregulating those pathways. That's where detox starts. Now once the cell starts unloading, now you use chelators and binders out around the cell

so you don't redistribute them and they go somewhere else because that's what people do. They make this mistake. They take things that drive a hormone, I mean, I'm sorry, that drive a detox and that can be very dangerous, right? So most detox that people are doing is very dangerous. You have to protect that so they don't redistribute.

Oh, and then you have to open up the gut, the liver, the kidneys, and the lymph. But that is the downstream part of detox. The upstream part is getting the cell to do what it was designed to do. But what is the actual thing they're doing when they're detoxing? Okay, so that's a process that I can't... this is the scams. Here's the product. Right. Yeah, no, that's, that's not the way it works. So you'll be like cut toxic chemicals, cut. We want to eliminate, imagine this, right? We want to eliminate what's coming in. Okay. While we're opening

up these. It's a process. It's a process. Yeah. I think if you asked me too about like the way I'm trying to live, it's not one thing that made all the difference. It's been a lot. It's been changing the toothpaste. Right. To Dr. Jerry's. People come in, they say, I need to lower my blood pressure and they spend three weeks lowering their blood pressure. It doesn't work. It's a year. It's a year of changes. It's like, again, yeah, it's the process. My program teaches people the process. Yeah. And that way they can actually do it long enough to matter, you know. But what is frustrating is people think that just,

I love, I have a sauna, saunas are very good, but just sitting in a sauna is going to detox them. No, that opens up a pathway. It's much more complicated than that. I could do a whole lecture on the cell membrane and why that is the key to detox. Well, if you go in a sauna and then you get into your bed that was washed with Tide and you lay down on your fabric softener pillow,

Right. Or you have a husband that has hairspray that he's wearing. Or you have a husband that I literally might have to divorce and send papers to if you don't get rid of that. Yeah. Then it's like, how are you going to live? Yeah. Once we get the results from this glue.

And by the way, once you learn how to do detox right, it's like, you know, that's how you're going to do detox right, it's like, you know, that's how you're gonna function in society today. Where can everyone find you, your program, everything that you are working on, see your viral videos? In my Instagram, it's DrPompa, D-R, and then P-O-M-P-A. You know, we just covered a lot of ground and I have all these cards for you.

Yeah, there's way more. We could have just kept going. I know, right? Yeah, exactly. And you know, and if you go to Pomp cards. Yeah, there's way more. And there's, we could have just. I know, right? Yeah, exactly. And, you know, and if you go to POMPA program, there's an inflammation test. I know that's, you start there. Is it saliva or blood? It's a urine test you can do in your home, right?

Cellular inflammation. It looks at lipid peroxidation, right? Start there. But yeah, I mean, they can go to pompaprogram.com. They can go to Dr. POMPA. That's a website. That's my Instagram.

Simple. So when you launch your podcast with your wife, you're going to have to come back on because we didn't even get to a fasting lunch. You should talk to dear media about your podcast. It's possible. We can talk anytime you want, but like I said, open invite, man, we could, we could just riff with you for a while. I love it, man.

These are topics. I mean, y'all are into it, so it makes it fun. Right. I mean, but people want to be healthy. They better get into it.
