I recently joined Kayla Barnes-Lentz on her podcast for a powerful conversation titled “The Fertility Alarm: Why 1 in 31 Kids Now Has Autism.” We explored a question I see every day in practice: Is your environment silently sabotaging your fertility?
In this episode, we discuss how hidden toxins, mold exposure, and overlooked cellular damage can quietly accelerate ovarian aging and disrupt fertility—often long before symptoms appear.
We also unpack why so many individuals are misdiagnosed with “unexplained infertility,” how toxic burden impacts egg quality and neurodevelopment, and what rising autism rates may be signaling about our modern environment.
We dive into the testing most conventional medical systems overlook and explain how cumulative toxin exposure affects mitochondrial function, hormones, and long-term health—not just for parents, but for future generations.
This conversation is especially important for anyone thinking about having children, navigating fertility challenges, or wanting to better understand how environmental health and epigenetics shape lifelong outcomes.
