Story at-a-glance Microplastics contaminate drinking water, food and blood; the average person consumes a credit card's worth of plastic weekly, causing hormone disruption and organ damage Natural okra and fenugreek extracts removed up to 93% of microplastics from real-world water samples, outperforming synthetic chemicals like polyacrylamide by nearly 40% Plant extracts work through "bridging," or trapping plastic particles with long-chain sugars that clump contaminants together, making them heavy enough to filter out Just 1 gram per liter of plant extract cleaned water in 60 minutes, proving these natural solutions are practical and cost-effective for everyday use Beyond microplastics, these plants also remove heavy metals and industrial toxins while being completely biodegradable, unlike synthetic chemicals that leave harmful residues

Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com shares the news affecting small farmers in America, including a focus on President Trump's “Big Beautiful Bill,” and how it will affect farmers. What should farmers know about his bill? Major cuts to the SNAP program, stricter qualifications for recipients, and passing costs off to the states. Next up, the continued issues of the screwworm and the problems these invasive, flesh eating pests are causing. ICYMI, a screwworm is a type of parasitic fly larva that fees on living flesh of warm blooded animals, including humans. Its name comes from the maggot's appearance as it burrows into a wound, resembling a screw being driven into wood. Th screwworm can cause severe damage and even death if left untreated. The USDA is making plans to better prepare farmers should these pests get into their herds. Moving on, Doug shares a list of foods with the highest amounts of microplastics. They are apples and carrots (most commonly used in juice cleanses). Other foods with higher levels of microplastics include rice, pink Himalayan sea salt, sugar, tea, plant-based nuggets, fish sticks, shrimp, and water. What are farmers doing — or, what should they be doing — to minimize microplastics infiltrating their crops. Website: AmericanFamilyFarmerShow.comSocial Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Microplastics, in onze hersenen zitten inmiddels ruim twee plastic zakjes.Het leek zo'n geweldige ontwikkeling, de ontwikkeling van plastics. De koppeling van series eenvoudige chemische verbindingen uit de groep van de koolwaterstoffen tot zogenaamde polymeren. De toepassingen waren, en zijn, legio, zoals in de textiel, in de cosmetica, in autobanden, de verpakingsindustrie, de bouwwereld. Maar inmiddels zijn we toch wel wat anders gaan aankijken, tegen die synthetische plastics. Afbraakproducten , in de vorm van microplastics, zijn overal, in de oceanen, op antartica en in vrijwel alle planten en dieren op aarde. En recent is gevonden dat in de menselijke hersenen ook zeker zo'n vijf gram aan microplastics aanwezig is. Bij demente patienten is dat nog een factor vijf tot zes hoger. Duidt dat op schadelijke effecten?Volg de podcast en word gratis lid via mennoenerwin.nl voor meer natuur en wetenschap verhalen. abonneer je daar ook op de nieuwsbrief met 5 tips over Teken.We hebben een kleine aanpassing gedaan:Woensdag → nieuwe podcast online die overal te beluisteren is op alle podcast spelers maar ook op substack.Zaterdag een nieuwsbrief NL met een uitgebreider verhaal over het onderwerp van deze week met 5 tips over het onderwerp zowel in het nederlands als het engels.Zondag een engelse nieuwsbrief ENG over het onderwerp van de week.Je kan zelf kiezen wat je in de mailbox krijgt nederlands engels of alleen de podcast ga naar je settings van substack en zet daar uit wat je niet meer wil ontvangen.

Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, Doug and Dr. Ken discuss the biggest news stories in the medical world, starting with a focus on good news that heart attack deaths have dropped by nearly 90% since the 1900s, in large part to implementing knowledge of the fundamental risk factors of heart disease.Additionally, a new study suggests a better way to measure weight over BMI (body mass index). The problem with it is that muscle and bone are a lot heavier than fat, which can give a false elevated BMI reading. A BMI over 30 is obesity. There are now high tech devices that can better measure body fat more accurately. Moving on, regular exercise in children isn't only fighting childhood obesity, but also childhood anxiety and depression.Next up, new hope of inverse vaccines that target a specific part of the immune system to suppress, and possibly reverse, autoimmune disease.The next item of interest is what the Health and Human Services is doing with the food and drink products containing synthetic dyes and just how many food products they're actually added to, and the most common is Red 40.Then the question -- how beneficial are pets for our health if we're allergic? Turns out, pet allergens are found in nearly all homes, even homes without pets. Pet allergens are from the pet dander, not their fur, and symptoms of pet allergies often mimic colds or seasonal allergies — sneezing, running nose, nasal congestion, red and/or itchy eyes, coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and hives or eczema. Immunotherapy is the only, ultimate relief of pet allergies. If you're looking to reduce allergy symptoms to pets, that would include keeping the pets out of the bedroom, use HEPA air filters, wash hands after petting animals, bathe your pet regularly, and use a vacuums with a double or micro-filter bag.Lastly, Doug and Dr. Ken answer listener questions, including low levels of a common drinking water contaminant linked to premature birth, low birth weight babies, and interference of the bloods ability to carry oxygen. Plus, are juice classes as healthy as we're led to believe? Doug and Dr. Ken discuss that, too. In tandem with that, foods that are filled with microplastics include apples and carrots (most commonly used in juice cleanses). Other foods with higher levels of microplastics include rice, pink Himalayan sea salt, sugar, tea, plant-based nuggets, fish sticks, shrimp, and water. Website: GoodDayHealthShow.comSocial Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Anonymous: I had fatigue, body pain and gallstones. Taking malic acid for gallstones but pain and fatigue went away. What does it mean when malic acid eliminates body aches? Does Malic acid address root cause issues? Is malic acid safe to take while I run my big 5 labs.              Nakul: Hello Dr. Cabral, I'm a big fan of your podcast and your approach to chronic health challenges. You're helping a lot of people heal - please keep up the great work. I was diagnosed with CIRS last year, which is an inflammatory response caused by a genetic predisposition to be unable to remove inhaled biotoxins (like mold and endotoxins) with the adaptive immune response. I've been dealing with reduction in vision (from what I suspect is brain inflammation caused by toxicity), and alopecia areata, in addition to food sensitivities and allergies. I've been using cholestyramine and other binders which have helped, but would love to know your thoughts and recommendations on how biotoxin illness can be treated through naturopathy. Thanks for your help!                                                                                                                                                              Jen: Thank you for taking my question, Dr. Cabral! I listen and learn from you every day. My question is about behavioral change at the root cause ~ This one thing in my life I desperately want to WANT to do it because it is good. And by not doing it, I am acting in a way that is incongruent with my career/mission. And that causes me much mental anguish. I know that when I am able to solve this conundrum, I will be true to myself and can help others do the same. What would be your protocol for changing behavior, not just an outward compliance, but at the very root cause/subconscious level? How thankful I am for you! I am looking forward to incorporating what I learn from you on this subject. Thank you!!                 Amy: Hi there. Thank you for your wealth of knowledge and insight into all things health! I have a question about microplastics in tea bags. Common knowledge is that steeping tea bags is a huge source of microplastics. I'm wondering how concerned you feel we should be about this, as I'm driving myself crazy. Some companies use unbleached tea bags that are glue free,heat sealed, and claim to be plastic free. Would those really be safer? Looking forward to any insight on how much concern a casual tea drinker should have.                                                                                                                  Grace: Hello looking for some advice regarding gum and tongue health. I am female, 26 years old. I get painful inflamation of my gums, inflammed taste buds, canker sores, and scalloped tongue. Typically these symptoms show up around my menstrual cycle and clear up in my follicular phase. I try to oil pull to help with the inflamation, ive cycled L-lysine and I have not seen any big changes in my symptoms. Also, I have a unrelated question regarding flushing of the face. I have issues of face flushing that is extreme and uncontrolable. It is not just when I may be embarassed it happens even when I talk about something passionately or am excited. I dont know why this happens and how I can control it.     Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3432 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

Scientists and researchers try to find out where the harmful microplastics in Lake Champlain are coming from. Plus, economic challenges have forced about one third of small outdoor cannabis growers in Vermont to give up their licenses, a heat wave descending on the region today has utilities asking customers to conserve energy, state tax revenues fell well short of their predicted targets last month, Montpelier's City Council will review its sanctuary city policies, and scientists and researchers who want to leave the US are being recruited in Montreal.   

Drs. Jesse Daystar (Chief Sustainability Officer, Cotton Inc.) and Richard Venditti (Professor, Dept. of Forest Biomaterials at NC State) join host Camp Hand (University of Georgia) to discuss plastic leakage, particularly as it pertains to microplastic contamination in the environment and our bodies.

In this powerful episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino sits down with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg, Chief Clinical Officer of MonarchMD and author of Menopause Bootcamp, for a wide-ranging and eye-opening conversation about how environmental toxins—from mold to microplastics—are silently impacting our health, especially women's health.Dr. Gilberg is conventionally trained (board-certified in OBGYN and formerly in Integrative and Holistic Medicine), but her experience and curiosity led her to explore the deeper, often-overlooked environmental factors behind the rise in chronic illness—particularly among women going through perimenopause and menopause.Dr. Gilberg also shares why she founded Menopause Bootcamp, the movement she started to create safe, supportive spaces where women can learn, connect, and take control of their health—without shame or gaslighting.This conversation is a must-watch for anyone feeling dismissed, frustrated, or unsupported in their health journey. It's also a wake-up call for how little our environment is being factored into mainstream healthcare—and why that needs to change.00:00 Introduction to Environmental Toxins and Health02:56 The Impact of Microplastics and Wildfires05:49 Understanding the Connection Between Environment and Health08:49 Air Quality and Public Health Initiatives11:50 Mold Exposure and Women's Health15:07 The Relationship Between Environmental Toxins and Menopause23:37 The State of Women's Health Research24:34 Inflammation and Women's Health28:12 Challenges in the Medical System32:49 Transitioning to a New Practice Model37:45 Menopause Bootcamp: Empowering Women42:32 Connecting with Dr. Suzanne Gilberg

Up to 40% of cancers are attributable to modifiable risk factors, including diet, obesity, alcohol, tobacco use, and physical inactivity. The WCRF estimates that about 1 in 3 cancer cases in high-income countries could be prevented by healthier diets, maintaining a healthy weight, and regular physical activity.

One day it's red meat, the next it's microwaves. We hear about them in headlines, social media posts or passed around in conversation, which can make it really hard to know what matters most.I'm joined today by Professor Robert Thomas, an NHS oncologist and researcher who's spent decades studying how lifestyle (from food and movement to gut health and supplements) affects cancer risk and recovery. We talk about …
