There are toxic poisons hidden in your daily environment....
And they're destroying your health and shaving years off your life.
From the water you drink to the t-shirts you wear....
Here are 7 silent killers destroying your life from behind the scenes:
These everyday items are hiding a secret evil.
This isn't esoteric. This isn't a thread on optimization.
These are chemicals proven to damage the human body.
Read on, and drop a comment if you feel I've missed something.
1) Polyfluorinated substances (PFAS)
PFAS are chemicals used to resist heat, oils, and stains.
Best example: nonstick pans.
Also found in:
- Paints
- Cleaners
- Packaged foods
- Weather-resistant clothing
Why are PFAS so dangerous?
PFAS have been linked to:
- Cancer
- Fertility issues
- High cholesterol
- Low birth weight
- High blood pressure
Need evidence?
Google "dupont pfas" to see what I mean.
2) Clothes
Moisture-wicking "performance" fabric?
Not helping performance in the bedroom, that's for sure.
Polyester has been linked to impotence and tight underwear messes with your sex hormones (men and women).
It makes sense...
How could squeezing your private parts be GOOD for you? Go commando when possible.
Stay away from synthetic fibers:
- Lycra
- Nylon
- Acrylic
- Polyester
- Microfiber
Stick with natural materials:
- Silk
- Wool
- Linen
- Hemp
- Cotton
- Bamboo
3) Receipts
It's a meme at this point, but receipt paper is filthy with Bisphenol-A (BPA).
Remember when they banned BPA-filled plastic bottles?
Because BPA is a known endocrine disruptor, which means it screws up your hormones.
BPA = Low T
Politely decline receipts.
4) Cosmetics
Skincare and cosmetics are riddled with damaging chemicals.
Especially in the U.S.
Use products with simple ingredients and avoid:
- Sulfates
- Parabens
- Phthalates
- Aluminum
This is my wheelhouse so check out my brand @letsdiscoskin for clean products.
@letsDiscoskin 5) Water quality
You ever seen the inside of a tap water pipe?
Spend 30 seconds on google and get back to me.
How many MILES of disgusting pipe does tap water run through?
Not OK.
And the scariest part?
@letsDiscoskin Modern tap water contains trace pharmaceuticals.
Bottom line: it's filled to the brim with contaminants that lead to:
- Mood issues
- Reproductive problems
- Chronic illnesses including cancer
Order your water from @AliveWaterco or use a @BigBerkey filter.
@letsDiscoskin @AliveWaterco @BigBerkey 6) Electromagnetic field radiation (EMF)
Your airpods are microwaving your skull.
Wifi has been proven to kill plants...and you think it isn't frying your brain?
Too much EMF exposure can cause
- Fatigue
- Dizziness
- Headaches
- Depression
- Restlessness
and more.
@letsDiscoskin @AliveWaterco @BigBerkey You don't need to turn your brain into pudding. Reduce EMF risk by:
- Using a Wifi killswitch at night
- Wearing wired headphones instead of airpods
- Removing all devices from your bedroom at night
⁃ Storing your devices in a bag and not your pockets
@letsDiscoskin @AliveWaterco @BigBerkey 7)Processed seed oils
You knew it was coming. Seed oils are downright poison.
Made with:
- Toxic chemicals like hexane
- Extreme heat over 500 degrees
- Hydrogenation for shelf-stability
Canola/soybean/veggie oil are OUT.
Stick with tallow, butter, coconut, and olive oil.
@letsDiscoskin @AliveWaterco @BigBerkey 7 everyday silent killers:
1. PFAS
2. Clothing
3. Receipts
4. Cosmetics
5. Water quality
6. EMF radiation
7. Processed seed oils
Avoid these to protect your health.
