I recently joined Courtney Swan on the Realfoodology podcast for an important conversation about a piece of fertility that is often overlooked—your toxic load.
In this episode, we explore how environmental toxins can quietly influence your health and fertility long before pregnancy begins.
I share why preconception is one of the most powerful windows to support not only your ability to conceive, but also the long-term health of your future child.
We talk about how everyday exposures—from the air you breathe to the products you use—can impact hormone balance, mitochondrial function, and overall resilience.
Just as importantly, I walk through simple, practical ways to begin lowering your toxic burden and supporting your body’s natural detoxification pathways.
Whether you are actively trying to conceive or simply want to better understand your body and protect your long-term health, this conversation offers a more comprehensive, root-cause approach to fertility and wellness.
In this episode, we discuss:
-
Why preconception health matters more than you may think
-
How environmental toxins can impact fertility and hormone balance
-
The connection between detoxification and reproductive health
-
Foundational lifestyle habits that support fertility and overall well-being
-
Simple, actionable steps to begin reducing your toxic load
