Air Pollution: Your Best Detox Strategies
Poor air quality resulting from industrial activities and recent wildfires poses a significant health risk to us all. Here are evidence-based strategies for removing toxic compounds from your body and mitigating the health risks of air pollution. In the first phase of hepatic detoxification, toxins undergo chemical modifications, such as oxidation, reduction, or hydrolysis, and are therefore rendered even more reactive, with the potential to wreak havoc. The second phase, thus, is essential in order to render phase I metabolites more hydrophilic, or water-soluble, so that they can be excreted. Sulfation, acetylation, glucuronidation, and glutathione conjugation are examples of phase II processes, whereby the phase I intermediate is attached to a conjugating agent by a transferase enzyme, allowing the toxicant to be eliminated from the body. To promote the removal of harmful substances from the body, it is essential to ensure that phase II detoxification proceeds unimpeded. As a fundamental endogenous defense system against oxidative stress, phase II enzymes scavenge reactive oxygen species, metabolize foreign compounds, and have demonstrated protective effects against xenobiotics, including ozone, tobacco smoke, and diesel exhaust particles. Some of the cruciferous vegetables, belonging to the Brassicaceae or mustard family, include arugula, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, red cabbage, green cabbage, Chinese cabbage, savoy cabbage, cauliflower, chard, collard greens, radish, rapini, rutabaga, turnip, turnip greens, wasabi, and watercress. Additionally, cinnamon, rooibos, holy basil, curcumin, ginger, quercetin, and resveratrol can support the phase II detoxification process. However, more importantly, you need to consume more protein to ensure that phases I and II are working correctly. That is the limiting factor. You need to consume in grams the equivalent of your body weight in lbs. In other words, if you weigh 200 pounds, you need to consume 200 grams of protein/day.
Almost half of all couples today cannot conceive a baby naturally...
According to Dr. Shanna Swan, humans now meet the criteria for an endangered species. 1 in 4 couples cannot conceive naturally, and that number is skyrocketing. Sperm counts are down 60% and 25% of women have PCOS. Fertility is vanishing because the modern world poisons our gonads. There's a deluge of chemicals today poisoning us. If you're an average person using regular soaps, deodorants, shampoos, body washes, conditioners, hair products, and makeup, you're ingesting over 200+ chemicals + heavy metals a day, all linked to infertility. Furthermore, corporate interests have hijacked the food industry, and people are no longer receiving the nutrients they need. Instead, the modern diet is loaded with inflammatory seed oils, endocrine disruptors, and gut irritants. Here's what's causing issues and should be avoided: Seed Oils Seed oils nuke the gonads. In men, they accumulate in the testes, causing lots of oxidative stress. They prevent binding of androgens to the receptor & block osteocalcin, necessary for T production They're also "remarkably estrogenic" and toxic to ovaries. Estrogen & Birth Control We put every woman on the pill and now PCOS is the fastest rising condition in women...shocker... Women who use birth control also tend to have more issues with fertility. ...and women pee out the birth control, which ends up in the water supply, tanking men's testosterone. Phthalates Phthalates are one of the most destructive forces in the environment today. They are toxic to both the ovaries and testes. They're found in soaps, shampoos, cosmetics, hair sprays, and many foods. BPA, BPS Before BPA was repurposed for use in plastic, it was actually studied as a synthetic estrogen mimic. BPA lowers thyroid, blocks androgen receptors, and increases estrogen -- a trifecta wreaking havoc on fertility. It's found in plastic, receipts, and food. Tap Water Tap water is effectively birth control. It is an actual fertility poison. It literally has birth control in it, but other things that also damage fertility like PFAS, fluoride, and THMs

Allergies, histamines and hormones: what do they have in common?
We usually think of histamine as the thing that makes us sneeze during allergy season. But in reality, it’s one of the busiest messengers in your body, involved in energy, digestion, sleep, mood, skin, and even how your immune system reacts to the world around you. When histamine is in balance, you feel clear, calm, and energized. But when it builds up faster than your body can break it down, things start to feel off. Headaches, rashes, bloating, itching, and brain fog are just a few of the signs. So what’s going on behind the scenes? Two key enzymes keep histamine under control The DAO (Diamine Oxidase) enzyme works mainly in your gut and helps break down histamine from food. If DAO is sluggish, histamine can build up after eating things like fermented foods, wine, or certain fruits and veggies. On the other hand, HNMT (Histamine N-Methyltransferase) works inside your cells, especially in the brain. When it’s not functioning well, you might feel “wired but tired,” restless, or foggy. Both of these enzymes depend on certain nutrients, like vitamin B6, copper, and magnesium, as well as a healthy gut and liver to work properly. In addition, the liver is the main organ that controls the levels of histamines in the body. In other words, if the liver is "sluggish", it may not properly eliminate the excess of histamines leading to allergies. So, liver health is critical for properly histamine regulation and therefore for allergy elimination. Finally, estrogen dominance is a major driver of allergies. That is why balancing hormones eliminate allergies especially in women. And what organ mainly controls estrogen? The liver! Another reason to make sure that your liver function is optimal!
