Just watched The Plastic Detox on Netflix and honestly… it’s one of those “you can’t unsee it” documentaries.
It follows couples with unexplained infertility who remove plastic from their lives for 90 days — and the results are pretty eye-opening.
We’re talking:
• Hormone-disrupting chemicals
• Microplastics inside the body
• Everyday exposure we barely think about
And while it’s not a perfect scientific study, it highlights something important:
👉 what we’re exposed to daily matters
This isn’t about panic or perfection.
It’s about small shifts that support your body.🤍
Start with
• don’t heat foods in plastic
• Switch to glass where possible
• Reduce processed foods
• Fragrance free products
• Clothes that are not polyester (recent research showed the amount of microplastics from places like SHEIN were through the roof 😱)
If you’re trying to conceive or dealing with hormone issues, this is just one piece of the bigger picture we look at in clinic 🌿
