Are the products you use every day poisoning you? In this episode of Super Life, Darin Olien dives into phthalates, a class of toxic chemicals found in food packaging, personal care products, medical devices, and even children's toys. Despite mounting evidence linking phthalates to hormone disruption, infertility, obesity, and chronic illness, these chemicals remain largely unregulated in the United States. Darin breaks down why phthalates are everywhere, how they impact your body, and what you can do to protect yourself. He also highlights Minnesota's groundbreaking SF 188 bill, which aims to force food manufacturers to test and disclose phthalate contamination for the first time in U.S. history. If you care about your health, your family, and the toxic load in your daily life, this is a must-listen episode that will make you rethink what you're consuming. Government Responsibility in the Spread of Phthalates Phthalates are chemicals used to make plastics more flexible and durable. Since the mid-20th century, they've been incorporated into countless consumer goods, from food packaging to personal care products. This widespread use is largely due to regulatory inaction and the prioritization of industrial interests over public health. In the United States, agencies like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have been slow to regulate phthalates, despite mounting evidence linking them to serious health issues. These include endocrine disruption, reproductive harm, and chronic illnesses such as obesity and diabetes. Unlike Europe, which has banned certain phthalates in food packaging and children's products, the U.S. has often allowed industry self-regulation, leading to widespread contamination in consumer goods. The Industrial Agricultural Revolution and Processed Foods The post-World War II industrialization of food production significantly increased the use of phthalates. As food manufacturing scaled up, plastics became integral in packaging and processing equipment, leading to phthalate leaching into our food supply. Highly processed foods are particularly susceptible due to multiple points of plastic contact during production and storage. Studies have shown that individuals consuming more processed and fast foods have higher levels of phthalates in their bodies. Minnesota's Legislative Action: A Step Forward In January 2025, Minnesota State Senator Heather Gustafson introduced Senate File 188 (SF 188), a bill requiring food manufacturers to test their products for phthalates and publicly disclose the results. If passed, this legislation would be the first of its kind in the U.S., aiming to increase transparency and encourage manufacturers to reduce phthalate levels in their products. According to Senator Gustafson, "Minnesotans have the right to know whether the food they are eating and serving their families is contaminated with toxic phthalates. My bill will help consumers make healthier buying decisions and create a strong incentive for food manufacturers to get plastic chemicals out of our food." advocacy.consumerreports.org Why This Matters This bill is crucial because it: Increases Transparency: For the first time, food companies would be required to test for and disclose phthalate levels, creating public awareness of the contamination problem. Encourages Stricter Regulations: Public disclosure could lead to consumer pressure for stronger nationwide bans and restrictions. Prioritizes Public Health: It challenges the longstanding prioritization of industry preferences over public health, acknowledging that chemical exposure is a public health crisis. Addresses Chronic Illness: With rising rates of metabolic disorders and hormone-related diseases linked to endocrine-disrupting chemicals like phthalates, holding manufacturers accountable is a step toward reversing this trend. Products Commonly Containing Phthalates and Associated Health Risks Phthalates are pervasive in many consumer products. Here's a breakdown of common sources and the potential health implications: Personal Care Products: Items such as nail polishes, hair sprays, aftershave lotions, cleansers, and shampoos often contain phthalates. fda.gov Food Packaging and Processed Foods: Phthalates can leach into food from packaging materials and during processing. Diets high in dairy and meat have been associated with higher levels of phthalate exposure. webmd.com Medical Devices: Some medical devices, including intravenous bags and tubing, contain phthalates to increase flexibility. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Household Items: Products like vinyl flooring, shower curtains, and certain furniture may contain phthalates. toxicfreefuture.org Children's Toys: Some toys, especially those made from flexible plastics, can contain phthalates. toxicfreefuture.org Health Risks Associated with Phthalate Exposure Phthalates are known endocrine disruptors, meaning they can interfere with the body's hormonal systems. Potential health effects include: Reproductive Issues: Exposure has been linked to reproductive problems, including reduced fertility. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Developmental Problems: Prenatal exposure may lead to developmental issues in children. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Respiratory Issues: There is evidence suggesting a link between phthalate exposure and respiratory problems, such as asthma. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Metabolic Effects: Some studies have associated phthalate exposure with metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance and obesity. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Steps to Reduce Phthalate Exposure To minimize exposure to phthalates: Choose Phthalate-Free Products: Opt for personal care items labeled as phthalate-free. Limit Processed Food Intake: Reducing consumption of processed foods can decrease phthalate exposure. Use Alternatives to Plastic: Whenever possible, choose glass, stainless steel, or other non-plastic materials for food storage and household items. Stay Informed: Regularly check resources like the Environmental Working Group's Skin Deep database to find products free from harmful chemicals. How You Can Take Action While Minnesota is leading the way, collective action is essential to drive nationwide change. Here are steps you can take: Support the Bill: If you're in Minnesota, contact your state legislators to express support for SF 188. You can find more information and track the bill's progress here. Sign Petitions: Look for petitions advocating for the reduction of phthalates in consumer products and add your voice. Stay Informed: Follow organizations like Consumer Reports and Clean Water Action, which are actively involved in this issue. Reduce Personal Exposure: Limit consumption of highly processed foods, use glass or stainless steel for food storage, and avoid products with "fragrance" listed as an ingredient, as it can be a source of phthalates. Active Petition to Support Minnesota's SF 188 As of now, there isn't a specific petition available for Minnesota's SF 188 bill. However, you can take proactive steps to support this legislation: Contact Legislators: Reach out to Minnesota state legislators to express your support for SF 188. Personalized messages can be impactful. Stay Informed: Monitor the bill's progress through the Minnesota Revisor's Office website. Conclusion Minnesota's initiative is a significant step toward addressing the pervasive issue of phthalate contamination. However, true accountability requires federal-level bans, a shift toward non-toxic alternatives, and a rethinking of industrial food production. By staying informed and taking action, we can collectively push for a healthier future. Bibliography Consumer Reports.

Contested Childhoods: Caste and Education in Colonial Kerala (Cambridge UP, 2024) traces a complex history of caste, race, education, and Christian missions in colonial south India. It draws upon the vast Protestant Christian missionary archives of the London Missionary Society, the Church Missionary Society, and the Basel German Evangelical Missionary Society to showcase the processes of negotiation, tensions, and underlying violence in the encounters between European 'outsiders' and local populations on the question of education. It examines the interplay of caste and education in reshaping ideas and norms of modern childhood and lower-caste community building in the regions of Travancore, Cochin, and Malabar. Set against a comparative historical perspective, the book argues for a greater focus on subaltern histories, especially the meanings and practices associated with educating poor, lower-caste children within the confines of formal schooling and beyond. Divya Kannan teaches in the Department of History, School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Shiv Nadar University, India. She is a historian of South Asia with particular interests in histories of childhood and youth, gender and sexuality, empires and colonial violence, histories of education, curriculum and pedagogy, Christian missions, and public and oral histories. Khadeeja Amenda is PhD candidate in the Cultural Studies in Asia programme at the Department of Communication and New Media, National University of Singapore, Singapore.

Dr. Peter McCullough, arguably the most renowned cardiologist of our time, continues to warn of the heart disease risks of mRNA – which he says are more dangerous to heart health than the infection itself. Dr. McCullough also shares published research on Monkeypox (also known as Mpox or Orthopoxvirus Monkeypox) that appear to show signs of Gain Of Function. “A report by Kannan et al, indicated that what happened in 2022 almost certainly occurred because of a gain-of-function mutation in one or more genes within the Monkeypox virus,” reports Dr. McCullough. “The authors do not speculate on whether this happened in a laboratory or in nature.” Dr. Peter McCullough is an internist, cardiologist, epidemiologist, and the Chief Scientific Officer at The Wellness Company. As an expert on cardiovascular medicine with over 30 years of experience, Dr. McCullough has spoken widely about the heart-related risks of mRNA.

What makes Rahul thinks that he has a better grip over issues when he could not even answer the easiest of questions posed by Arnab in 2014? Urban Naxals of the World screamed when Kejri was jailed.

Finding an hour for yourself each day can be tricky. Between managing clients, dealing with kids and aging parents, job changes, and life transitions, most of us aren't prioritizing our sleep foundation. As practitioners, despite being equipped to support people through difficult situations, we are not immune to them. We're human, and we have to be sensitive to ourselves and recognize when it's time to tweak our self-care.Today's guest, Ayurvedic Practitioner, and author Deepa Kannan, found herself in such a situation as she dealt with the challenges of a difficult marriage and divorce, then later, a child with a health condition that left him vulnerable. Through the stress of it all, she went for years on terrible sleep and health issues. After being introduced to functional medicine, Deepa recognized that getting better sleep requires an individualized approach that addresses the whole person.In this episode, Deepa discusses sleep optimization and her book, How to Sleep Better. She shares her sleep challenges and holistic approach to better sleep, which blends Eastern and Western wisdom, the impact of stress on sleep, the benefits of self-care practices like oil massage, the balance between cortisol and oxytocin, the pros and cons of different sleep positions, unique sleep issues faced by women during hormonal transitions, and more.Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/how-to-sleep-better-with-sleep-expert-deepa-kannan/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).

What are the biggest questions that people have about Eigenlayer? David sourced these questions from Crypto-Twitter, and will be asking Sreeram LIVE! ------
In this episode I talk to Sreeram Kannan founder of EigenLayer, a revolutionary new crypto protocol that is the foundation of an entire new wave of applications, use cases and brand new crypto concepts that are being born. Sreeram was a postdoctoral scholar at University of California, Berkeley and a visiting postdoc at Stanford University who was studying computational biology before founding EigenLayer. EigenLayer introduces a new concept commonly called "restaking" but more accurately called programable staking. It sounds complicated but I swear after listening to this podcast you should have a decent understanding of what it is and why it's important. Understanding how it works and why it's important is some of the most impactful alpha you can gain in the space.... That's because after talking with Sreeram I'm convinced EigenLayer will absolutely change EVERYTHING. ----------- THE OBSIDIAN COUNCIL PREMIUM MEMBERSHIP
Ethereum validators are earning yield for nearly a million wallets but what happens if you can restake that ETH for even more yields? Eigen Layer is one of the most ambitious projects in crypto and crossed a billion dollars in deposits while recording this episode. Joining us today is special technical co-host Mike Neuder to discuss all things Eigen Layer with Sreeram and Teddy from the team. -----

In this episode, I speak with Malini Kannan, CEO Office of Thunes, a global B2B cross-border payments infrastructure company. Malini grew up in India and started her career in Singapore, working in research and strategy across a diverse set of sectors. After her MBA from INSEAD, Malini focused more directly on the fintech space, working across the industry and landing at TransferTo, which incubated the business that eventually become Thunes. At Thunes, Malini has covered every aspect of the business - starting as a Strategy & Operations Manager, moving up to COO, and now she leads the CEO Office. Thunes was originally founded in 2016 under TransferTo, which focused on cross-border airtime top-ups and other value-added services. TransferTo rebranded as DT One, where Thunes was incubated. Since then, Thunes has grown into one of the largest and most well-known B2B payments companies in Singapore. They now serve customers in more than 130 countries, have offices in 20 cities, and have closed their $72M USD Series C funding round in July 2023. You can learn more about Thunes by visiting thunes.com.
The American Indologist Wendy Doniger, whose academic activity has spanned over forty years with several tomes in different genres, including interpretive works on religion, translations and edited volumes, forms the subject of Dr. H.R. Meera's essay in the book 'Ten Heads of Ravana.' The author, through a metaanalysis of Doniger's methods and frameworks of study, shows how Doniger's understanding of Indian chronology leads to several wrong interpretations of the historical timelines of important texts of the Sanskrit canon, while highlighting her derision for Indian thinkers such as Manu, Kauṭalya and Vātsyāyana. Kannan shows the various mistranslations of Sanskrit words in Doniger's works and how this is an important tool in the latter's work for propaganda writing and building misinterpretations of several important Dharma texts. The desacralization project of scholars such as Doniger is also analyzed by Kannan, especially how the former uses psychoanalytic techniques on dhārmic vidyā-s, as seen in the case of studies on Tantra, which forms the core of Tibetan Buddhism as well as Hinduism. Kannan highlights how while the former is left alone, the Tantra related to Hinduism is targeted by Doniger.

In this week's interview, EigenLayer CEO and Founder Sreeram Kannan and Principal Researcher Soubhik join us to unpack how EigenLayer aims to become the coordination infrastructure of Web3. They discuss the vision for EigenLayer as a platform that allows developers to build and integrate specialized protocols through a shared security model backed by Ethereum staking. Kannan outlines the roles of stakers, node operators, and developers building actively validated services (AVS) within the EigenLayer ecosystem. They also explore potential AVS use cases like rollups, bridges, fast finality, and applied cryptography. They close out by discussing potential enshrinement and the 2023-2024 roadmap.

Sreeram Kannan is the Founder and CEO of EigenLayer (https://www.eigenlayer.xyz/).Backed by Blockchain Capital, Figment Capital, WAGMI Ventures, & more, EigenLayer is the first market for decentralized trust—creating an ecosystem for restaking, which enables staked ETH to be used as cryptoeconomic security for protocols other than Ethereum, in exchange for protocol fees and rewards. In this episode we discuss Sreeram's journey through academia, the key insights that produced EigenLayer, the many use cases enabled by EigenLayer, the importance of focus for early-stage projects, and much more.Recorded Monday July 10th, 2023.
Sreeran Kannan, Founder of Eigenlayer, is an assistant professor at the University of Washington, Seattle, where he runs the information theory lab focussing on information theory and its applications in communication networks, machine learning, and blockchain systems. He was a postdoctoral scholar at the University of California, Berkeley, and a visiting postdoc at Stanford University between 2012-2014, before which he received his Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering and M.S. in Mathematics from the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign. His team has built EigenLayer, a protocol built on Ethereum that introduces restaking, a new primitive in cryptoeconomic security. This primitive enables the reuse of ETH on the consensus layer. SUsers that stake ETH natively or with a liquid staking token (LST) can opt-in to EigenLayer smart contracts to restake their ETH or LST and extend cryptoeconomic security to additional applications on the network to earn additional rewards. Join us to learn more about Eigenlayer and new systems being built in digital assets.
Sreeram Kannan, Founder of EigenLayer, joins this episode to talk about the innovative power that EigenLayer is bringing to Ethereum. In this episode we discuss EigenLayer's data availability layer for ETH L2s to roll down to, which saves costs and solves congestion issues and EigenLayer's re-staking layer which allows ETH stakers to opt in to support new use cases, earning more yield while accepting more slashing conditions, instead of apps having to roll their own security. Sreeram is extremely smart (his academic papers here), I learned a ton during this episode and I hope you do as well. Please share your thoughts and favorite parts of the episode with us on Twitter.

If you are struggling with your child taking hours to fall asleep or waking up at odd times in the day, you are absolutely not alone. Some studies say that up to 80% of Autistic kids experience some form of sleep disturbance. Compared to neurotypical kids, Autistic kids were seen to be 2.6 times more likely to have a problem falling asleep, and 1.5 times more likely to have problems staying asleep. And if you are concerned about learning / focus / moods, you can pretty much forget about fixing these in the absence of a good night's sleep. Sleep is a keystone habit! This means that poor sleep can affect every body system and all sorts of neurological Here are 10 strategies to help your child fall asleep from a discussion with Deepa Kannan, the Sleep Whisperer. I have curated the tips into a downloadable ebook - that you can find at www.functionalnutritionforkids.com/sleeptips - Download that here.
