Are your cleaning products making you sick and fat?

 




Obesogens are chemicals that can disrupt hormones, increase one’s risk for cancer, allergies, headaches, and fatigue, and of course lead to obesity. These chemicals get stored in the fat, and the body holds onto the fat so the chemicals don’t leach out.

Detoxifying your body, along with reducing your chemical exposure, can help one lose weight.

Obesogens are found in common everyday products, like Lysol, Clorox bleach, and Febreze.

We may not think that what we breathe in matters, but it does! I’ve had patients tell me Clorox bleach and Lysol “smell clean״. I hear you! I used to think the same thing.

Then I became highly allergic to these harsh chemicals, to the point it affected my breathing.

What is your largest organ? Correct your skin. These harsh chemicals can penetrate the skin and become toxic (especially to children and animals). If ingestion occurs Poison control should be called immediately.

Did you know the Poison control center received numerous calls during the pandemic for inhalation injuries due to excessive use of Clorox bleach and Lysol.

What to do
I know it’s hard to change (especially when you were raised with this stuff). But think of it this way, if it makes you and your family healthier, isn’t it worth it!❤️

At Krav Maga Martial Arts (in Land O’ Lakes), they are using healthier cleaning products (thank you Barbara) that are just as effective, without the harsh chemicals, because they CARE about their students and staff.

Natural cleaning solutions
I like Seventh generation Cleaning products because you can find them almost anywhere including Target and Abby’s Health and Nutrition (and they have a cleaner profile, and can still be effective against viruses). It may be a few dollars more, but keeping your family safe and healthy, I think warrants the extra cost.

 

Save $ with these low-cost cleaning solutions

I have used White Vinegar as a natural disinfectant. Baking soda works to clean toilets and showers just sprinkle on stains and squirt with vinegar to moisten and wipe after 30 minutes with a scouring pad or brush. If you have other suggestions, please feel free to share.

Now if you’re feeling like this is a lot, start with changing one product. You may consider the one with the most chemicals that you use often like bleach or Lysol.

I’m available for consults and can help you with a Natural cleaning solution makeover.  🧽

With warmest wishes, Dr. Tanya Gold

Can Plug-ins Make YOU Sick and Fat?

  Can Fragrances (e.g. perfumes, colognes, air fresheners)  Make YOU SICK & FAT? Did you know the scent within many perfumes and colognes along with plug-ins (and many other household and beauty products have chemical fragrances or parfums in their ingredients i.e., Febreze, Lysol, Clorox Bleach, Dawn, Tide, Irish Spring, Fabuloso etc) which contain many harmful chemicals. According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG.org), many of the chemicals in these synthetic fragrances contain phthalates, which can disrupt hormones, worsen asthma, allergies, lead to headaches, fatigue, weight gain (as these chemicals get stored in the fat), weaken the immune system, and even possibly cause cancer. What to do?   Use natural products.  For not much more money, you can get products from Seventh Generation (SeventhGeneration.com), Ecos (ecos.com) etc. that don’t contain many of these harmful chemicals. These ecofriendly products can smell nice and be just as effective at eliminati

How to Relieve Pain Long Term & Naturally

Image
  How to Relieve Pain Long Term & Naturally Our body is connected (as you know!), but when we see a traditional doc, they may only focus on the specific body part for which you are having a problem. For example, when I saw my neurosurgeon for neck pain, they only looked at my neck. I have a history of many ankle sprains. Once I addressed strengthening my ankles, which I never thought to do because they didn't hurt, my neck pain improved. The chiropractor explained my "weak ankles likely turned in my hips and shoulders, which likely affected my neck". Once I strengthened my ankles and stretched my hips and shoulders more, my neck pain improved (without the surgery). I've seen many patients with knee pain where the cause of the their pain was related to tight hips or problems with their feet (which they told me was never addressed before). The great part is they are improving and feeling better and are not taking their pain medicines any longer (e.g. T
