Yum! How do you take your monthly plastic bag….

Adults may ingest up to 150,000 harmful plastic particles a year – equal to eating as many as 12 shopping bags annually, according to a new Environmental Working Group analysis.

Nearly half of all children in the U.S. are now living with at least one chronic condition: from obesity and autoimmune disease to asthma, anxiety, and developmental disorders. And the numbers are only rising.

This detailed, nonpartisan investigation brings to light the underlying drivers of this modern epidemic. The findings point to a combination of ultra-processed, nutrient-poor diets; increasing exposure to harmful environmental toxins and endocrine-disrupting chemicals; overprescription of medications that manage symptoms rather than root causes; lack of physical activity; and skyrocketing screen time.

In short, the environments we are raising our children in (what they eat, breathe, absorb, and experience) are making them sick.

This report offers a path forward. With a focus on prevention, education, and systemic change, it calls for a transformation in our food systems, school environments, pediatric care, and public health policies.

If we want to change the future of healthcare, we have to start with the health of our children. And that starts by confronting the systems that are failing them.

Drop a YES below, and I’ll DM it to you.

These “foods” now make up 60% of the American diet.

And they are the single biggest driver of chronic disease, disability, and death worldwide.

Yes, all food is technically processed - washing, freezing, and chopping are forms of processing. But that’s not what we’re talking about. We’re talking about ultra-processed foods: products designed by Big Food, made from refined starches, industrial seed oils, added sugars, and additives that hijack your biology.

These compounds disrupt metabolism, damage the gut microbiome, inflame the brain, impair immune function, and drive hormonal chaos. They fuel obesity, diabetes, fatty liver, cancer, autoimmune disease, and cardiovascular disease, which now kill 11 million people per year due to poor diet alone.

Meanwhile, we’re not growing or eating enough real food. The average person doesn’t even get the minimum five servings of fruits and vegetables per day.

Let’s get back to real food.
Food that comes from a farm, not a factory.
Food that heals, not harms.

Because food is medicine, or it’s poison.

Chewing gum may be one of the most overlooked sources of microplastic exposure.

In a new pilot study presented at the American Chemical Society, researchers found that chewing a single piece of gum released up to 3,000 microplastics into saliva. Most were shed within the first 8 minutes.

Even gums labeled “natural” released similar amounts of plastic particles as synthetic ones—including polyolefins, PET, polystyrenes, and polyacrylamides. These are the same polymers used in packaging, industrial materials, and water bottles.

Microplastics like these have been found in the brain, placenta, bloodstream, and arteries, where they may drive inflammation, disrupt endocrine signaling, and impair cellular health.

The gum industry doesn’t disclose what’s in the “gum base.” And without regulation, we’re chewing on polymers no one asked for—and no one’s fully studied.

Your mouth wasn’t designed to process plastic.

Are you getting enough vitamin D in your diet?

You may be familiar with the importance of vitamin D for healthy bones and teeth, but did you know that vitamin D is also a key player in the function of our immune system, important for a healthy pregnancy, and is even associated with muscle recovery after exercise?

Some of the foods we eat contain small amounts of vitamin D, but we can also make this unique vitamin in our bodies when we absorb UV rays from sunlight.

Some people carry genetic variations that alter how they absorb and transport vitamin D in their bodies. This means the minimum recommendations for vitamin D may not be enough to maintain adequate blood levels in these individuals.

A Nutrigenomix test can tell you more about how your genes impact your unique nutrient requirements. In addition to Vitamin D, it can also tell you more about other key nutrients including calcium, iron, folate, vitamin B12, vitamin C and more.
