Chemicals in water, food, and receipts are messing with our hormones. Nick Pell helps us understand and reduce the risks on Skeptical Sunday!Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by writer and researcher Nick Pell!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1194On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that interfere with your body's hormone signals by either blocking them or mimicking them, potentially affecting testosterone, estrogen, and other crucial hormones that regulate mood, growth, and reproduction.These chemicals are virtually everywhere — in drinking water, plastic bottles, receipts, shampoos, soaps, food packaging, and even birth control runoff in groundwater. Complete avoidance is impossible in modern life.Evidence suggests EDCs may contribute to declining testosterone in men, early puberty in girls, and male fertility issues. Frog feminization studies show real hormonal effects in wildlife and Alex Jones.Unlike typical toxins, endocrine disruptors follow a "non-monotonic dose response" — meaning lower doses might actually be more harmful than higher doses, making it impossible to determine a "safe" exposure level.You can reduce exposure by filtering water, avoiding receipt handling, using glass/metal containers instead of plastic, choosing bar soap over liquid, and not microwaving food in plastic wrap — small changes that add up.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

For the past five years I've been teaching a class at various rationality camps, workshops, conferences, etc. I've done it maybe 50 times in total, and I think I've only encountered a handful out of a few hundred teenagers and adults who really had a deep sense of what it means for emotions to “make sense.” Even people who have seen Inside Out, and internalized its message about the value of Sadness as an emotion, still think things like “I wish I never felt Jealousy,” or would have trouble answering “What's the point of Boredom?” The point of the class was to give them not a simple answer for each emotion, but to internalize the model by which emotions, as a whole, are understood to be evolutionarily beneficial adaptations; adaptations that may not in fact all be well suited to the modern, developed world, but which can still help [...] ---Outline:(01:00) Inside Out(05:46) Pick an Emotion, Any Emotion(07:05) Anxiety(08:27) Jealousy/Envy(11:13) Boredom/Frustration/Laziness(15:31) Confusion(17:35) Apathy and Ennui (aan-wee)(21:23) Hatred/Panic/Depression(28:33) What this Means for You(29:20) Emotions as Chemicals(30:51) Emotions as Motivators(34:13) Final Thoughts--- First published: August 3rd, 2025 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/PkRXkhsEHwcGqRJ9Z/emotions-make-sense --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:Apple Podcasts and Spotify do not show images in the episode description.

Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that can interfere with the complex system that produces and interacts with our hormones. Research suggests they can affect the reproductive system, our kidneys, and even increase our risk of cancer. There are over 1,000 types of endocrine-disrupting chemicals, according to some estimates, and we are exposed to them daily through things like kitchen utensils and makeup. So how worried should we be about inevitable exposure?Host Elahe Izadi speaks with oncologist Dr. Mikkael Sekeres about the connection between endocrine disruptors and cancer. Dr. Sekeres also shares his advice on steps he takes to avoid these chemicals–and how he puts the risks into perspective.Today's show was produced by Thomas Lu, with help from Rennie Svirnovskiy, who also mixed the episode.

In this episode of the Health Accelerator Community (HAC) through Ageless Future, Regan Archibald explores the root causes of brain fog and cognitive decline, highlighting how chronic stress, poor sleep, and neuroinflammation can impair brain function. He explains the role of the hippocampus in memory and how changes in brain structure, particularly due to aging or conditions like Alzheimer's, can be detected early through symptoms such as forgetfulness, social withdrawal, and diminished focus. Regan discusses how environmental toxins, allergies, and lifestyle stressors disrupt neuroplasticity and outlines the EPIC framework—Emotions, Pain, Infections, Chemicals—as key inflammatory triggers. He introduces actionable strategies to restore brain health, including diagnostic testing, optimizing sleep, exercise, cortisol regulation, targeted nutrients, and innovative peptide and regenerative therapies like cerebrallysin, CMAX, and umbilical cord plasma. Listeners are encouraged to monitor their cognitive clarity over 30 days using wearables and journaling, with an invitation to explore deeper evaluation and support through upcoming retreats and personalized protocols. www.agelessfuture.com

Story at-a-glance Fabric softeners and dryer sheets release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into your indoor air and laundry, exposing your lungs and skin to hormone-disrupting and carcinogenic chemicals Chemicals like benzene, acetaldehyde, quaternary ammonium compounds, and synthetic musks are common in scented laundry products and have been linked to asthma, migraines, reproductive harm, and nervous system damage These toxic substances don't wash away; instead, they cling to your clothes, build up inside your washer and dryer, and continue releasing harmful vapors long after the laundry is done Vague ingredient labels allow manufacturers to hide thousands of chemicals under terms like “fragrance,” leaving you unknowingly exposed to compounds that accumulate in your body and the environment Safer, nontoxic alternatives like wool dryer balls, vinegar rinses, and DIY fabric softener recipes offer the same softness and freshness without compromising your health or polluting your home and the environment

People are out there in the health realm screaming about Apeel on fruits and vegetables. While everyone should have every right to be concerned about what goes on their food for many reasons, the truth and reality of what the food supply is laced with goes way beyond Apeel. What people really need to know is that this has been occurring for decades. Toxic synthetic waxes, toxic applications of ammonia, toxic mold inhibitors, toxic fungicides, toxic preservative agents and more are sprayed, laced, dipped and coated on produce and animal products. This has no connection to pesticides and herbicides sprayed on conventional and organic produce, instead, these are separate industrial entities for the most part. The question is, why are these industries doing this? The answer is, to try to keep produce and meat fresh for as long as possible so that growers, middle men, and grocery store chains feel warm, safe and fuzzy and not worried about the food quickly going bad. There is a deep, dark secret in the food industry that Medical Medium has tried to expose for years, and it's the hundreds of millions of pounds of food wastage that could feed the world but instead it's thrown in dumpsters. In this episode you will learn about this food wastage and what's being placed on our food that makes Apeel look like an Appetizer compared to all of the food crimes occurring. In this episode… Learn what kind of toxic coatings are on the food bought in the grocery stores. Discover how Apeel is just one of many food coverings that are believed to protect fruits and vegetables so they have a longer shelf life. Find out about fungicides and how they are sprayed on produce and animal products to stop fungus from growing on the food. Learn about how produce is dipped in mold inhibitors to stop the skins of fruits from molding. Discover the truth about produce rotting from the inside instead of outside because of the toxic preservative applications. See how fresh produce served on cruise ships are laced and coated with food preservatives to prevent it from rotting too quickly. Learn the truth about millions of tons of food wastage a year that could be used to help starving people in the world. Find out why it's so important to wash and rinse your food before preparing and cooking. Discover the difference between growing your own food versus getting your food from other sources. All this and more, tune in and don't miss out on this important episode. You can revisit this episode anytime you need it. For more information visit www.medicalmedium.com

The source turned out to be firefighting foam used on a nearby air base that had seeped into streams and creeks, and ultimately the city's main drinking water reservoir.Now, Newburgh is one of 10 sites that are part of a CDC-led study investigating the health effects of PFAS exposure. Early data out of Newburgh links PFAS with high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and heart disease. Host Flora Lichtman discusses the research with environmental epidemiologist Erin Bell and reporter Shantal Riley.Read our full story about what PFAS contamination has meant for Newburgh in English and in Spanish.Guests: Shantal Riley is an award-winning journalist and science writer, focused on environmental health.Dr. Erin Bell is an environmental epidemiologist at the University at Albany in New York.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright revisit the critical topic of endocrine disruptors—chemicals in our environment that interfere with hormones and impact metabolism, weight, and overall health. Dr. Cooper breaks down how everyday exposures to substances like phthalates, BPA, and others can have generational effects on metabolic pathways and disease risk. The episode highlights the link between these chemicals and the rising rates of obesity, diabetes, and even cancer, while offering practical steps for minimizing exposure in daily life.Key Takeaways:Endocrine disruptors are chemicals found not only in food but in everyday items such as furniture, makeup, plastics, and baby products, making exposure widespread and difficult to avoid.These chemicals can mimic or block hormones, disrupting critical metabolic and developmental processes, with effects that may pass to future generations.Regulatory oversight in the U.S. is decreasing, with significant EPA budget cuts threatening existing screening and cleanup programs targeting endocrine-disrupting chemicals.Air quality improvements, especially through HEPA filtration, and making informed choices during preconception, pregnancy, and early childhood, can help reduce exposure.Consumer awareness, advocacy, and using resources like the Environmental Working Group (EWG) app are key strategies for individuals seeking to lower risk.Personal Stories & Practical Advice:Andrea shares the everyday struggle to find safe, affordable alternatives and the surprise of seeing improvements in metabolic hormone levels after changing air filters and reducing workplace exposures.Dr. Cooper discusses strategies to minimize risk during critical windows such as preconception and pregnancy, and emphasizes the power of informed consumer choices in driving safer product development.Resources from the episode:Environmental Working Group (EWG) resources and app for product safety ratingsU.S. EPA Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program (EDSP)PubMed for scientific research on specific chemicals (BPA, phthalates, PFAS)Connect with Dr. Emily Cooper on LinkedIn.Connect with Mark Wright on LinkedIn.Connect with Andrea Taylor on Instagram.Fat Science is a podcast on a mission to explain where our fat really comes from and why it won't go and stay away.

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Petfood Forum in Kansas City, Missouri.  Austin begins with an overview of the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO). Their membership consists of all government officials in the US and other countries who are charged by law to regulate animal feed, including pet food, in their jurisdictions. Canada, Costa Rica, and the US all participate in AAFCO. In the US, animal feed regulation is an integrated food safety system with a partnership between state and federal regulators as well as FDA. AAFCO's ultimate goal is to harmonize animal feed regulation across all states and provide a level playing field for the industry. (8:14)He goes on to explain that AAFCO and FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine had a long-standing MOU in place that outlined an ingredient approval pathway that ended on October 1, 2024. FDA chose not to renew that MOU to focus on improving their other regulatory pathways, the Food Additive Petition Process and the Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS) Notice Program. The FDA also has a new Animal Food Ingredient Consultation Process for ingredient approval. AAFCO has partnered with Kansas State University's Olathe Innovation Campus to scientifically review new ingredients, then bring them back through the AAFCO process to get formal approval. Ingredient companies can choose one of these four pathways for new ingredient approval. (10:05) Dr. Starkey notes that the process a company chooses will depend on the ingredient. If it's similar to ingredients proven safe on the market already, the KSU-AAFCO system would be a good route. If it's something a little more sophisticated or a new chemical, that may be more appropriate for a food additive petition, where toxicology studies would be conducted. (12:49)The panel discusses how scrutiny of GRAS rules might impact the pet food industry. Dr. Larson explains the scientific rigor involved in evaluating new ingredients. Dr. Starkey notes that there are different levels of GRAS, one of which is self-affirmed, which might be the one under the most scrutiny at this point. The panel agrees that transparency is critical for consumer confidence and ensuring health and safety of pets. (15:47)Austin talks about some of the ripple effects of the federal reduction in force in the regulatory arena. He and Dr. Larson talk about how the AAFCO-K-State partnership came to be, how K-State is ramping up to manage this project, and future plans for the partnership. (19:52)Dr. Starkey underlines the importance of timely ingredient approvals and how the new AAFCO-K-State partnership allows for companies to be more competitive due to the speed of approvals. Austin notes that an ideal submission with no follow-up questions or back-and-forth would have taken about 18 months to get approval under the old MOU between AAFCO and FDA, and a very small percentage of applications would be considered ideal. With the new AAFCO-K-State process, an expert panel reviews the submission in 60-90 days and the entire approval process is cut roughly in half, to about nine months. (25:55)Scott and the panel discuss how approval pathways differ for ingredient approval based on the claim being made. For example, is it a nutrient or is there some sort of pharmaceutical claim?

Dr. Jack Stockwell (www.forbiddendoctor.com & www.jackstockwell.com | Phone: 866-867-5070), a GAPS Practitioner and NUCCA Chiropractor, discusses the biggest concerns for health and medical news from a natural position over a Western Medicine approach. He starts today's episode with the foods common in America, yet banned in Europe — and why these items are banned.  First on the list is cow's milk with RGH/RBST . . . a growth hormone designed to increase milk production. Europe has banned these hormones altogether. Next on the list is Tostitos Salsa Con Queso which contains Yellow 5 & 6, which comes from petroleum and is linked to hyperactivity and allergic reactions in children. Drug-treated meat is also permitted in America and banned in Europe. Raktopamean makes animals leaner and is banned due to its potential impact on cardiovascular and overall health in the humans who eat the drug-treated meat. Certain flavors of Pop-Tarts are also on the list of permitted in the U.S. and banned in Europe because of falsified nutritional values on the box. The U.S. allows outright lies, where European food laws are far more strict in honesty of nutritional value. Plus, the Blueberry and Wild Berry flavors of Pop-Tarts contain Blue dyes. That brings us up to farm-raised salmon, which uses artificial coloring and chemicals applied to farm-raised fish to mimic the color of wild-caught salmon and to make them grow faster. These chemicals have long term health effects on humans, including cancer. In Europe, farm-raised salmon has to meet strict organic standards and be free from these chemicals. Another food that exists here and in Europe, but completely different — McDonald's French fries. McD's fries served in the United Kingdom contain three ingredients: potato, fat and salt. In America, McD's fries have 17 ingredients, including “flavor enhancers” and other addictive chemicals. To round out this episode of Good Day Health, Doug and Dr. Jack discuss neck health and why NUCCA Chiropractic care is important in overall health, why garlic supplements from naturally derived garlic is healthy for us (especially from Standard Process, which you can buy on ForbiddenDoctor.com), and why you should add onion root to your daily nutritional intake. Website: GoodDayHealthShow.comSocial Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Ever wondered why your feed is filled with extreme transformations and diet challenges? In this candid conversation, we pull back the curtain on social media algorithms that reward controversy while burying genuinely helpful health content.The discussion takes a fascinating turn as we explore the phenomenon of fitness influencers presenting carefully curated physiques. From strategic lighting and posing to the unspoken truth about performance-enhancing substances, we break down why so many "natural" fitness personalities aren't being entirely honest about their methods. This deception becomes particularly problematic when these same influencers sell programs without disclosing the real story behind their results.We tackle the delicate balance between pursuing health and actually enjoying life. Drawing from a Ricky Gervais perspective, we question whether extreme optimization is worth sacrificing life's pleasures. Are you truly living if you're bringing meal prep containers to Disneyland just to maintain your physique? Our hosts share personal experiences from both sides of this spectrum – from obsessive optimization to finding a sustainable middle ground where health enhances rather than restricts.The conversation doesn't shy away from criticizing problematic content like extreme weight loss challenges that essentially recreate "The Biggest Loser" format with its known unsustainable approaches. We discuss why these methods get millions of views while realistic, sustainable approaches often go unnoticed.Throughout it all, we emphasize the importance of nuance in health discussions – something increasingly rare in a social media landscape that rewards binary thinking. Whether discussing weight management, fitness approaches, or supplement use, we advocate for thoughtful consideration of the complex trade-offs involved in all health decisions.Join us for this thought-provoking episode that might just change how you view your social media feed and your approach to health and fitness.

What if we could turn the mountains of food waste we generate every day into high-value chemicals that replace fossil fuels and palm oil—two of the most environmentally destructive inputs in our economy? That's exactly what this episode's guest is doing. Marc den Hartog is the CEO of ChainCraft, a Dutch biotechnology company using fermentation to convert agricultural waste into medium-chain fatty acids—essential building blocks for everything from fats for foods to lubricants to bioplastics and fragrances. Founded as a spin-off from Wageningen University, ChainCraft is pioneering open-culture fermentation process that offers a scalable, circular alternative to petroleum-based chemicals. And they're not just operating at the lab bench—in addition to having raised 40 million euros in investment so far, the company already has a pilot facility in Amsterdam producing 2,000 tons of fatty acids per year, with plans for a full-scale industrial plant underway. Marc joined ChainCraft after a distinguished career in the chemical industry, including senior roles at Corbion and other global players. Now, he's applying that experience to scale a cleantech company aiming to rewire one of the dirtiest parts of our supply chains—chemical production—into a model of sustainability. In this conversation, Marc and I talk about how ChainCraft's technology works, why food waste is a goldmine of untapped value and what it will take for his team to go from demo plant to commercial scale. If you care about the future of sustainable industry, the circular economy, or just finding smarter ways to deal with the waste we already produce, you're going to love this episode.

"Chemicals are actually more dangerous at low doses than high ones... they're small amounts, but they're able to do a lot with the size and concentration and power of what they are." – Dr. Aly Cohen I invited back triple board-certified physician Dr. Aly Cohen to tackle the intimidating world of environmental toxins. As a rheumatologist, internist, and integrative medicine specialist, she brings a uniquely practical approach to a topic that can feel overwhelming. What I love about Aly's perspective is her emphasis on making reasonable, sustainable changes rather than attempting perfection. We explored how these small daily exposures accumulate in our bodies over time, the biggest offenders to focus on first, and her practical four-step process for reducing your toxic load without driving yourself crazy. If you've ever felt paralyzed by information overload about toxins, this conversation offers a refreshingly sane roadmap to better health.   What you'll learn: Why low-dose chemical exposures can be more dangerous than acute exposures and how they accumulate over time The "Four A's" approach to detoxification that makes reducing toxins manageable Which toxin sources make the biggest impact on your health (and should be addressed first) How clean food and water choices can immediately remove thousands of harmful chemicals from your daily exposure The powerful connection between toxins and weight challenges, including how toxins can prevent weight loss Why filtering your water is one of the highest-impact changes you can make Simple travel hacks to reduce your toxic load even when away from home The importance of adding in foods and practices that support your body's natural detoxification Love the Podcast?
