Feeling overwhelmed by environmental toxins? This is your antidote to eco-anxiety. Dr. Aly Cohen, triple board-certified physician, joins me for a refreshingly practical conversation about endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) without the hysteria. We break down how BPA, phthalates, and PFAS affect your hormones, metabolism, and immune system—and what you can actually do about it.From the frozen food revelation (it's better than fresh!) to low-cost swaps like glass Tupperware and vinegar cleaners, Dr. Cohen shares her "Four A's" framework for reducing toxic load. We dive into obesogens (chemicals making weight loss harder), why teens use 17 products daily, and how to navigate personal care products, water filters, and cookware. Environmental health for real people living real lives—progress, not perfection. Actionable steps you can take today.Episode Overview (timestamps are approximate):(0:00) Intro/Teaser(3:00) What Are Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals?(9:00) BPA: The Estrogen Mimicker(14:00) Long-Term Exposure and Systemic Inflammation(20:00) Obesogens and Metabolism(26:00) Food Packaging: The Silent Killer(31:00) Frozen vs. Fresh: The Nutrient Density Debate(39:00) Exercise, Sweat, and Detoxification(48:00) Water Quality: RO Filters vs. Carbon Blocks(54:00) Indoor Air Quality (Open Those Windows!)(59:00) Cooking Indoors: Gas Stoves and Non-Stick Pans(1:03:00) Tupperware, Cookware, and Material Safety(1:07:00) Personal Care Products: The Teenage Toxin Bomb(1:15:00) The Big Takeaway: One Thing at a Time(1:20:00) BONUS: After-Party with Dr. StephanieResources mentioned in this episode can be found at https://drstephanieestima.com/podcasts/ep446/We couldn't do it without our sponsors:LVLUP   - Ultimate GI Repair combines powerful gut-healing peptides with gut-nourishing naturals to soothe your changing digestion.

The Trump administration's reaction to the shooting of two members of the National Guard by an Afghan refugee has left Afghans in Wisconsin facing an uncertain future.a settlement is pending in the state's case against a Marinette manufacturer of firefighting foam over PFAS contamination. And, the University of Wisconsin-Madison is launching a new college focused on Artificial Intelligence.

Jason DeRusha and Dan Cook out. Scott Korzenowski and Lindsey Brown in for a Friday edition of Drivetime with DeRusha!. Korzo opens up the show discussing 3M usage of PFAS (forever chemicals) and the impact on our local communities. He references a ProPublica article that illustrates what they knew, when they knew it and what they didn't do about it. Then, Korzo weighs in on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and his ongoing strikes on an alleged drug boats in the Caribbean. Finally, Paul McGuire Grimes stops in to discuss the Netflix/Warner Brothers merger.

Industrial water professionals sit at the intersection of risk, regulation, and community trust. In this episode, Dr. Annette Davison ("the water risk doctor") joins Trace Blackmore to show how disciplined governance, clear supply chain thinking, and community engagement can turn fragmented water systems into coherent, defensible risk management frameworks.  Water risk from source to customer  Annette starts with a simple question most customers never ask: "Where's your water coming from?" She walks through a conceptual supply chain from source to end point—collection, transfer, treatment, distribution, and customers—then layers governance on top. Who holds custody at each handover point? Are water quality objectives clearly defined and documented? What happens when something "stuffs up," and how is that communicated downstream? For leaders, it's a practical reminder that risk isn't just about treatment performance; it's about clearly assigned responsibilities along the entire chain.  Governance, ISO 31000, and the Water31K framework  Drawing on her background in microbial ecology and environmental law, Annette explains why "you can't do a good risk assessment unless you've got the context right." She describes how ISO 31000 inspired the Water31K framework—an approach that is jurisdictionally agnostic and capable of spanning drinking water, recycled water, and recreational water guidelines. Using Water31K, her team walks into any jurisdiction and systematically maps stakeholders, legal and formal requirements, reporting lines, and internal obligations so utilities can see their governance landscape clearly before they start scoring risk.  Critical control points, AI, and learning from incidents  Critical control points may have started in the food industry, but Annette shows how they can be sharpened for water. Her test— "would a computer understand this?"—forces teams to close logical gaps and define thresholds and responses precisely enough to be automated. She also explores how AI and "agents as a service" could help analyze incident data, while warning that AI is useless if utilities haven't done the basics: monitoring the right things, at the right place, at the right time, with a firm grasp of supply chain risk. Her mantra: never waste a good incident; dissect it and make sure it doesn't happen again.  Regulations, public–private contracts, and community projects  Using Australia as an example, Annette unpacks the complexity of layered laws—Commonwealth, state, local—and the different regimes governing public, metro, and private utilities. She shares a five-part checklist for public–private contracts (quantity, quality, maintenance, ownership, operations) and explains how weak agreements can undermine water quality objectives and monitoring. In parallel, she talks about social initiatives like One Street and One Creek, community-led work on Rocky Creek, and bringing STEAM (not just STEM) into high schools so the next generation sees water as a diverse, creative career path.  Strong water risk governance isn't just about compliance; it's about making better decisions for customers and communities over decades. This conversation gives leaders language, frameworks, and examples they can use to tighten their own systems and engage people beyond the plant fence.  Stay engaged, keep learning, and continue scaling up your knowledge!    Timestamps    02:15 — Trace reflects on the end of 2025, recap planning, and how goal setting shapes a stronger 2026 for sales and learning. 11:12 — Introducing lab partner Dr. Annette Davison and her diverse day-to-day across mediation workshops, field work, and high school outreach. 12:10 — The Risk Edge Group mission: protecting people, processes, and the planet from contaminated water with documents, templates, tools, and audits. 13:14 — "Incidents Online" as a free learning resource and how sharing real events helps others protect themselves. 14:10 — Becoming Australian Water Association's Water Professional of the Year and launching the One Street and One Creek social initiatives. 15:29 — From microbial ecology and contaminated sites to environmental law and a career focused on water quality governance. 19:47 — Training as a core "case study": lighting up operators and directors by finally explaining the "why" behind procedures and funding. 22:00 — Walking the water supply chain from source to end point and identifying governance handover points and quality objectives. 24:22 — Strategy-to-operations workflow: from planning and design to commissioning and operations, and why design must serve operators. 24:45 — Critical control points, space diarrhoea origin-story, and the discipline of defining CCPs so clearly "a computer would understand." 30:30 — How Water31K creates a common language for teasing out complex legal and regulatory structures across jurisdictions. 33:03 — The multi-layered Australian governance example: Commonwealth guidelines, state acts, and differing regimes for local, metro, and private utilities. 36:23 — Rocky Creek and the Karingai "Kraken" network: turning an unloved creek into a pilot for community care and data-driven education. 38:19 — onestreet.earth, mobilising your community, and building a playbook so others can replicate a "One Creek" model. 39:21 — STEAM power in schools: bringing science, technology, engineering, art, and maths together to improve water communication. 42:01 — Public vs private utilities, the Water Industry Competition Act, nimble private operators, and the five-part contract checklist. 44:39 — Emerging hazards (microplastics, PFAS) and the reminder not to take our eyes off the basics while we monitor new risks. 46:19 — Annette's core message: we've got to love water and help customers understand what it takes to keep it safe and reliable.   Quotes "You can't do a good risk assessment unless you've got the context right."  "Where's your water coming from?

One Wisconsin town has been drinking bottled water for years because of PFAS. The environmental impact of road salt has on our local waterways. The changing market of Christmas trees, and how sellers are adapting.

Send us a textBrown, sulfur-smelling water stamped “healthy” by the lab was the wake-up call: legal doesn't always mean safe. We sit down with water treatment expert Sidian Kaufman to unpack the gulf between regulatory limits and what's best for long-term health, and we map out practical, affordable steps to turn your tap into a trusted source—no plastic bottles required.Sidian explains the EPA's MCL (Maximum Contaminant Level) versus MCLG (health-based goal) and why the “feasible” standard can leave you drinking water that technically passes while still carrying avoidable risk. We share gripping real-world stories, including a shallow-well household dealing with cryptosporidium that standard tests missed, and a city water case where a spike in chlorine byproducts—like dibromochloromethane—coincided with serious concerns. These moments reveal how chronic, low-level exposures often fly under the radar and why targeted testing and tailored filtration change outcomes.We also tackle microplastics and nanoplastics—the everywhere problem that turns bottled water into a Trojan horse. With studies estimating tens of thousands of particles per liter in bottled water, we focus on practical defense: reverse osmosis under the sink for drinking and cooking; nanofiltration or ultrafiltration for whole-home protection; and simple behavior shifts like using stainless steel or glass bottles and avoiding heat-cycled plastics. Along the way, we dig into skin and hair issues tied to hardness, how to prioritize a real test panel (metals, VOCs, chlorine byproducts, PFAS), and why builders are starting to make filtration standard in new homes and remodels.If you've wondered whether your water is truly serving your health, this conversation gives you a clear roadmap: test smarter, filter where it counts, and carry clean water without plastic.

But a shocking new investigation reveals most brands can't prove it. Dr. Christian Gonzalez reached out to 33 of the biggest electrolyte companies—including Liquid I.V., LMNT, Ultima, Nuun, and Trace Minerals—with one simple request: show proof your minerals are tested for heavy metals, PFAS, mold, and contaminants through Certificates of Analysis (COAs). The results? Twenty-five brands disappeared, dodged questions, or flat-out refused to respond. Only EIGHT companies could stand behind their claims with real data. This isn't about being picky—it's about protecting your cellular function, nervous system, and hormonal balance from daily toxic exposure. When you consume contaminated electrolytes multiple times a day, you're compounding exposure to chemicals that disrupt every electrical signal in your body, from mood regulation to heartbeat. The hidden contaminants lurking in popular electrolyte powders: • PFAS (Forever Chemicals) linked to hormonal imbalance, thyroid disruption, and immune dysfunction • Heavy metals including arsenic, lead, and cadmium that accumulate in tissues and impair detoxification • Mold and bacterial contamination from compromised mineral sourcing and manufacturing • Synthetic fillers like artificial sweeteners, colors, and flow agents that burden your liver • Toxic packaging that makes the container itself part of the contamination problem In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez exposes the 2025 Electrolyte Purity Audit and reveals: • The full list of 33 brands tested—and which ones refused to respond or failed safety standards • The ONLY 8 electrolyte brands that passed with transparency, clean COAs, and verified testing • Why major names like Liquid I.V., Ultima, Nuun, Dr. Berg, and Thorne couldn't (or wouldn't) provide proof • The marketing manipulation behind "clean hydration" and "pure mineral" claims • How to identify truly clean electrolytes and protect yourself from daily mineral contamination • The cellular damage, hormonal disruption, and nervous system dysfunction caused by chronic electrolyte toxin exposure This episode goes beyond hydration—it's about understanding that electrolytes control your body's cellular electricity. It's about taking back control of what you put in your body every single day, and demanding transparency from an industry built on marketing hype, not real science. Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:34 - The Truth About Electrolytes & Nervous System Health 4:22 - What We Asked Every Company (Testing Criteria) 5:56 - Companies That Failed Transparency Standards 8:27 - How Sodium & Potassium Balance Affects Hydration 9:36 - Why Food-Based Formulas Need Heavy Metal Testing 10:43 - The Role of Magnesium in 300+ Body Functions 11:50 - High Sodium Without Potassium: The Cortisol Connection 12:58 - Why Whole Food Ingredients Absorb Heavy Metals 14:55 - How TMG Supports Your Methylation Cycle 16:07 - Potassium's Role in Preventing Anxiety & Heart Palpitations 16:52 - Fulvic & Humic Minerals: Ancient Soil vs Salt-Based 18:05 - Final Results: Only 8 Brands Passed Full Testing

While RFK, Jr. will do some good things at HHS, other Trump departments are still assaulting the health of America. Approval of new PFAS pesticides? Magnesium and "Depression" "Nakd" junk food?

Michael Regan recently served as the 16th Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Previously he was Secretary of the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality where he secured the largest coal ash cleanup settlement in U.S. history. And he led negotiations on the cleanup of the Cape Fear River from PFAS contamination. Now he has taken a role at POLIS: Center for Politics at Duke University's Sanford School of Public Policy.

A lawsuit over PFAS contaminating the water supply of Wisconsin communities, and why PFAS has kept one Wisconsin town drinking bottled water for years. The story of two brothers from Afghanistan now living in Milwaukee, and how the near-constant changes in immigration policy could affect people like them.

Host Linn Bumpers explains the EPA's proposed amendments to the 2024 PFAS reporting rule under the Toxic Substances Control Act. The discussion covers what PFAS are, why they matter, and how new exemptions such as de minimis thresholds and article imports could change compliance obligations for manufacturers and importers. With public comments open until December 29, 2025, this update provides timely insights for businesses navigating evolving environmental regulations.

Sam Digiambattista was shopping for a ski jacket when he discovered that Gore-Tex—the gold standard in outdoor fabrics for 50 years—is made with PFAS, harmful forever chemicals. Rather than accepting the status quo, the then-teenager decided to do something about it. In the two years since, Sam has developed his own PFAS-free waterproof breathable fabric and launched Indersity, a technical outerwear brand committed to environmental responsibility without sacrificing performance. At just 19 years old, Sam demonstrates remarkable conviction and values-driven leadership that makes you believe sustainable innovation is possible in the outdoor industry.Topics Covered:Why this teenager rejected the fabric standardFrom zero knowledge to proprietary fabric in two yearsSpeed wins: Building a technical brand without waiting for permissionTaking on investors to capitalize on an opportunityGetting athletes on board earlyStaying hands-on while growingLinks:IndersityKORE podcast episode with Alex LauverKORE podcast episode with Casey ShawFor more about the KORE Outdoors Podcast, visit https://koreoutdoors.org/podcast/The KORE Outdoors Podcast is supported by the Province of British Columbia.

Join Dr. Charlotte Huntley for a powerful conversation that connects purpose with public health, diving into the essential question: What is Public Health?  This episode is designed to help professionals and leaders communicate the field's value without academic jargon and secure much-needed community buy-in. Featuring stories from the field told by professionals creating change beyond traditional roles, including: Megan McCarthy, who defines public health as the vital "bridge between science and communities" and discusses her work in nutrition access (WIC/SNAP);  Jennifer Mandelbaum, a public health scientist and New Hampshire State Representative, who explains the field as a "promise" and "call to action" demonstrated through incremental policy steps like PFAS legislation; and Abby Tighe, who uses the relatable "roads analogy" to advocate for societal investment in health, offering an update on the mission of the newly named National Public Health Coalition (formerly Fired But Fighting) and its commitment to nonpartisan advocacy.  Tune in to discover what's possible in public health, harness your passion, and learn how to break down silos and communicate the silent, crucial work that protects our shared future.   Resources   ▶️ Join the PHEC Podcast Community ▶️ Visit the PHEC Podcast Show Notes ▶️ DrCHHuntley, Public Health & Epidemiology Consulting

Australia experienced record-setting influenza deaths this year, with flu killing more people than COVID. The H3N2 variant mutated to evade vaccine protection, leading to unprecedented hospitalizations. Japan declared a flu epidemic five weeks early, and similar patterns are emerging in the United States.Dr. Matthew explains why flu vaccination remains critical despite mutations, reducing hospitalizations by 30-40% in adults and 70-75% in children. The conversation shifts to RFK Jr's anti-vaccine policies at HHS, where he claims no vaccine is safe and effective despite having zero background in immunology or pediatrics. His appointment, along with Marty Makary at FDA and Jay Bhattacharya at NIH, represents a complete rejection of scientific reality in favor of political ideology.The discussion covers RFK Jr's role in 88 child deaths in Samoa from measles, his vitamin A recommendations causing liver damage in Texas children, and how VAERS data is being misrepresented. Dr. Matthew details the exodus of top scientists from NIH, cancelled research grants, and terminated clinical trials that will kill patients. Forever chemicals (PFAS) are being approved for pesticides while vaccine research funding gets slashed.America faces losing measles elimination status, rising preventable disease deaths, and compromised pandemic preparedness. The CDC's COVID vaccine guidance for pregnant women has been offline for months despite evidence linking infection to preterm births and neurological damage. This administration prioritizes grift over public health, with consequences spanning decades.

Two lawsuits seeking to redraw Wisconsin's congressional maps involve new legal questions that could end up before the U.S. Supreme Court. The state wants to encourage a PFAS-free foam for firefighters. And, we hear from a Wisconsin veteran whose story is told in a new podcast from NPR.

La presencia de Shein en Francia ha exacerbado el debate sobre el "fast fashion" y la regulación de estas compras vía plataformas digitales, como parte de una industria que es acusada de dañar el medioambiente y atentar contra los derechos humanos. La polémica se ha extendido a Latinoamérica, donde ya varios países avanzan en leyes de regulación y/o imposición. En la llamada capital de la moda, la apertura de la primera tienda física del gigante del "fast fashion" (moda rápida) Shein ha generado dos frentes: sus clientes y quienes consideran su presencia en Francia diabólica. Pero la polémica va más allá y ha exacerbado una pregunta que trasciende fronteras: ¿Cómo se regula esta industria que es señalada de contaminar y vulnerar derechos humanos? Latinoamérica se une a la ola de regulación Latinoamérica se une al movimiento de regulación al "fast fashion" Francia, que fue pionera en la materia al aprobar la ley contra el ultra fast fashion que impacta sobretodo gigantes como Shein o Temu, según Javier Guevara, investigador y analista jurídico de normativas innovadoras, que publica actualizaciones legales junto a la Universidad Externado de Colombia. “La ley francesa del ultra fast fashion fue la que abrió toda esta discusión a nivel mundial, pero las nuevas legislaciones responden a un contexto global donde el sector textil es el que está generando más del 10% de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero en el mundo”, agregó Guevara. En Latinoamérica se nota un impacto después de que Francia lo hiciera, “porque se comienza a hablar del tema”, indica Guevara, explicando que en Argentina la Cámara de indumentaria trabaja en un proyecto para regular las plataformas de ultra fast fashion, “con propuestas que incluyen todo lo que es la aplicación de impuestos y aranceles buscando proteger a la industria nacional”. También enumera el caso de Colombia que, aunque reconoce que los esfuerzos han sido más a nivel local, se han anunciado ajustes impositivos para la importación de prendas, buscando frenar el impacto en los productores locales. En Ecuador, desde junio de 2025, se está buscando aplicar un impuesto de 20 dólares por paquete a las compras de ropa desde el extranjero y en México se aumentaron los aranceles de las importaciones de pequeños paquetes de textiles del 19% al 33.5%, explicó el investigador, agregando que todos son esfuerzos para frenar este fenómeno de consumo masivo. El jurista destaca a Chile como el país más avanzado de la región en la materia que, además de los aranceles, contempla los textiles en una ley de responsabilidad extendida del productor para reducir los residuos. En América Latina, el consumo de estas marcas ha tenido un aumento exponencial. Es el caso de Argentina que, en lo que va del año, registró un aumento del 237% en compras vía plataformas digitales como Shein, Temu o Aliexpress, según datos del Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censos. El papel protagónico de la publicidad En Colombia, el sector textil ya ha alertado del peligro para su industria, pues consumidoras como Dayana también se han dejado conquistar por los gigantes chinos. “Usualmente suelo comprar en Shein y en Temu, pues la mayoría de mi círculo compra ahí y las veces que he comprado, todo ha salido bien. El tema de reembolsos, también la información cuando es ropa, las tallas, cuando es un objeto. Hay especificaciones muy claras en cuanto al tamaño y las medidas. Entonces me ha aparecido confiable”, indicó la cliente de 23 años. Ella cuenta que la publicidad de las redes sociales la llevó a acercarse a estas marcas, principalmente en el caso de Temu. Pues dichas plataformas han jugado un papel clave en la transformación del consumo, según encontró Guevara en sus últimas investigaciones. “La llegada masiva de las redes sociales hizo un cambio en el paradigma del consumo que no se veía hace 5 o 10 años; el poder acceder a una red social donde el producto llega muy rápido y muy barato”, señaló el investigador. Para él, también habría que examinar los contenidos publicitarios de “lo que nos venden como moda o ese aumento de publicidad agresiva sobre lo que es la moda, sobre la necesidad de consumir muchas prendas todo el tiempo, de estar a última moda”. Olivier Urrutia, delegado general de la Delegación del Comercio Cooperativo en Francia, también destaca la importancia de vigilar estos anuncios, algo que contempla la ley francesa. “Esa ley obliga a las plataformas a respetar unas normativas, como por ejemplo limitar los efectos de la publicidad, pero también obligarlas al respeto de la protección de datos personales de los consumidores”. La polémica de Shein en Francia Sin duda, el paso de Francia a intentar regular la industria del ultra fast fashion ha puesto a Shein en el foco, y este ha respondido con una provocación al instalar su primera tienda física en la capital de la moda, estima Pierre Condamine, responsable de campaña de la ONG Les Amis de La Terre (Amigos de la Tierra). “Esta apertura es un intento por parte de Shein de legitimarse, de mostrarse irreprochable. En Francia, Shein ha sido muy criticada por ser una marca que solo opera en línea, que no paga impuestos y que no crea puestos de trabajo y ahora lo que hace Shein es intentar responder a eso. Esto forma parte de una estrategia de comunicación en un momento en el que son objeto de la ley fast fashion, pero es un modelo dañino y es necesario regularlo”, señaló. Aunque Shein abrió sus puertas en París, en los célebres almacenes BHV a principios de noviembre, aún sigue siendo parte del debate público y su expansión en el resto del país se ha visto frenada. Algunos sectores piden retirarla totalmente, ciertas marcas de lujo han decidido abandonar el edificio negándose a ser sus vecinos, mientras clientes como Manel se alegran de poder comprar en directo: “Yo pido por la página web, es asequible y nos permite ahorrar dinero, pero lo que crea esta polémica es la brecha entre el lujo y lo barato, ellos no quieren que gente como nosotros acceda a esos privilegios”. Comprar bonito a bajos precios, es la razón principal que dicen tener los clientes tanto de Francia como de Latinoamérica a la hora de dirigirse al gigante Shein, que Mathilde Pousseo, delegada del colectivo francés Ethique sur l'étiquette (Etica en la etiqueta), juzga por sus prácticas laborales. “Shein es realmente el modelo que menos respeta los derechos de los trabajadores a quienes somete a una presión terrible y luego vemos claramente que los precios bajos se traducen en una merma de los derechos de los trabajadores en todos los eslabones de la cadena” indicó. Para ella, el modelo económico es muy frágil y “está destinado al fracaso, pero también es responsabilidad de las personas tomar conciencia de que lo que compran es malo para la salud. Se trata de productos fabricados esencialmente con hidrocarburos y sabemos lo que hay detrás, como disruptores endocrinos, PFAS y otras sustancias que son realmente perjudiciales para el medio ambiente, pero sobre todo para la salud”, indicó. Diferentes organizaciones como Public Eye han denunciado abuso laboral de la marca con jornadas de 75 horas semanales, bajos salarios y problemas de seguridad. La precariedad laboral del "fast fashion" no es un secreto, asegura el jurista Guevara, aunque reconoce que es imposible de regular: “muchas veces ni siquiera se sabe de dónde vienen esas prendas, porque lo que hacen esas empresas es hacer unos grandes pedidos que llegan a sus filiales y ellos las redistribuyen. Entonces el rastro es muy difícil de perseguir” señaló. ¿Comprar es un acto político? Para Urrutia, la polémica de Shein es el pico de un dilema que también es moral en la sociedad actual. “Los consumidores estamos atrapados entre el dilema moral de respetar o no las condiciones de los trabajadores y la calidad de los productos y el medio ambiente, con el poder de compra. Como hay una crisis económica y una bajada del poder adquisitivo, pues la gente tiene que reflexionar sobre si se privilegia el volumen de compra o  la responsabilidad de lo que se está comprando, es un dilema que está atrapando cada vez más a las sociedades desarrolladas”, explicó. El gigante del "fast fashion" lleva la bandera de toda una industria de moda rápida que es acusada de competencia desleal, dañar el medio ambiente, tener prácticas laborales precarias y mucho más. La regulación marca un punto de inflexión, pero como dicen los expertos, es difícil vigilarlo todo y más en un contexto de crisis económica. La decisión final queda entonces en manos de los consumidores, ¿pero es posible comprar como un acto político?

The proposed EU PFAS ban is poised to reshape the membrane landscape, pulling PVDF into the regulatory crosshairs and forcing utilities, industrials and suppliers to rethink long-term planning. Rhys and Divya unpack what a universal restriction could mean for plant design, stranded-asset risk, supply-chain readiness and the accelerating push toward ceramic and other non-PFAS alternatives. They also explore emerging PFAS destruction pathways, near-realtime sensing and the market signals defining this inflection point. Dive deeper with BlueTech's PFAS Watch service, and register for the Water Innovation Town Hall on 4 December and the Ceramic Membranes briefing on 11 December.--Presented by BlueTech Research®, Actionable Water Technology Market Intelligence.

Get My Brand Masterlist⁠ https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/ Get Water Guide https://drchristiangonzalez.com/water-pdf-request-form// Episode Description You trust the water bottle label that says "pure" and "natural spring." But a shocking new investigation reveals most brands can't prove it. Dr. Christian Gonzalez reached out to 19 of the biggest bottled water companies with one simple request: show proof your water is tested for PFAS, heavy metals, microplastics, and industrial solvents. The results? Fourteen brands disappeared or flat-out refused to respond. Only FOUR companies could stand behind their claims with real data. This isn't about being picky, it's about protecting your hormones, liver, and nervous system from daily toxic exposure. When you drink contaminated water multiple times a day, you're compounding exposure to chemicals that disrupt your entire system. The hidden toxins lurking in "clean" bottled water: • PFAS (Forever Chemicals) linked to hormonal imbalance, reduced sperm quality, and thyroid disruption • Microplastics found in up to 93% of bottled water globally, leaching endocrine-disrupting phthalates and BPA • Heavy metals like arsenic and lead from contaminated sources or outdated bottling systems • VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) including dry cleaning solvents and gasoline additives from industrial runoff • Toxic packaging that makes the bottle itself part of the problem In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez exposes the 2025 Bottled Water Audit and reveals: • The full list of 19 brands tested—and which ones refused to respond • The ONLY 4 bottled water brands that passed with transparency and clean testing • Why major names like Evian, Fiji, Spindrift, and Liquid Death couldn't (or wouldn't) provide proof • The marketing manipulation behind "pure" and "spring" water labels • How to identify truly clean water and protect yourself from daily contamination • The endocrine disruption, liver burden, and nervous system damage caused by chronic water toxin exposure This episode goes beyond hydration. It's about taking back control of what you put in your body every single day, and demanding transparency from an industry built on marketing mystique, notreal science.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers reveals the simplest yet most powerful strategy to heal and protect your brain: intermittent fasting. By stabilizing blood sugar and reducing insulin levels, fasting supports mitochondrial health, which is crucial for maintaining brain function and preventing degeneration.   You'll learn how brain degeneration isn't something that happens overnight, but rather a 30–40 year process that starts early, often in childhood. Dr. Jockers explains how poor metabolic health over time can silently damage the brain, leading to conditions like dementia and Alzheimer's.   Finally, discover how intermittent fasting not only supports brain repair but also activates powerful neuroprotective mechanisms, including the production of BDNF, a critical factor for brain regeneration. It's a simple lifestyle shift with profound long-term effects on cognitive health.   In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction to Intermittent Fasting and Brain Health 02:34 The Rise of Brain Degeneration 03:41 Benefits of Intermittent Fasting 09:28 Understanding Neuroinflammation 13:02 Preparing for Intermittent Fasting 15:44 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Struggling with digestion?

On this post-Thanksgiving edition of MAHA News, Jordan Sather and Nate Prince kick things off with holiday banter before digging into a rapid-fire barrage of health, agriculture, and regulatory bombshells. They react to Dr. Marty Makari's explosive podcast revelations about Lyme disease origins and U.S. cancer patients' cells being gene-edited in China, then break down major shifts inside America's health agencies, from new HHS leadership to Louisiana Surgeon General Ralph Abraham stepping in as the CDC's new #2. The hosts examine the uproar over the CDC's vaccine-autism webpage update, Senator Bill Cassidy's pharma-funded outrage, and newly exposed corruption inside HHS. From there, the episode turns to food and agriculture: Campbell's Soup executives trashing their own products, PFAS pesticide approvals, and Chuck Grassley's defense of Big Ag as Kennedy advisors target harmful pesticides. Jordan and Nate highlight alarming cancer clusters in heavy-spray states, unpack USDA and EPA failures, and spotlight ranchers fighting back through private-member co-ops and new grassroots alliances aimed at breaking the Big Four packer monopoly. They close with cannabis policy hypocrisy, fluoride debates, demographic decline, and the MAHA community's new health challenge board.

This week on Truth to Power, we bring you a community conversation about reducing single use disposable plastics in foodservice and the food safety codes that impact efforts to avoid disposables. This conversation was hosted by Beyond Plastics Louisville at their November 20th meeting, and it featured Alison Schleck, Environmental Health Supervisor for the Louisville Metro Public Health and Wellness Food Safety Program. Alison engaged in a rich dialogue with Beyond Plastics Louisville members about our food safety codes as they apply to reusable containers for food and drink. Learn more about Beyond Plastics Louisville at https://www.facebook.com/groups/beyondplasticslouky. Watch a recording of the evening at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SniWcZrwwA The next meeting of Beyond Plastics Louisville will be a dinner gathering on Thursday, Jan. 15, 2026 at 6pm at Mashup Food Hall in NuLu (750 E Jefferson St.). Join fellow plastic haters at this in-person gathering for dinner, followed by a discussion of the new book, The Problem with Plastic, by Beyond Plastic's founder, Judith Enck. These are some things we learned from our conversation with Alison: • The Food Safety Program oversees 4,600 food facilities in the Louisville metro area, with 17 inspectors and 2 supervisors. Most facilities have two inspections per year. • When restaurant customers dine in, they may bring reusable containers for their leftovers, as long as the restaurant staff do not handle the containers. For other carryouts, the kitchen cannot accept a customer's container. • For coffee shops, the vendor may prepare beverages and transfer into the customer's container, as long as the transfer is contamination free, with no direct contact. Shops, such as Starbucks, may choose whether or not they will allow customers to bring their containers. • Another option (used at some college campuses and in other locales) would be for a food service to provide food in a reusable container that the customer would return to the business or a third party service to be cleaned and sanitized before being reused. • Pam asked if the food safety code addressed possible chemical or microplastic contamination from plastic packaging, containers, or utensils. Alison said the food code standards require that food contact surfaces not allow “migration of deleterious substances' into food. The current code prevents contact with some metals such as lead, copper, or galvanized metal. Regarding concerns about PFAS, Alison said the code specifies that cooking surfaces with Perfluoroalkyl non-stick coatings may not be scratched. • Pam also asked about processes where food is cooked in plastic. These are currently allowed by the code. • Beatriz asked about the process for adopting or changing the KY food code. Who decides which federal code is followed? Alison answered that the KY Dept. for Public Health adopts the code. This department is under the Cabinet for Health and Family Services. • Beatriz also asked if the Metro Food Safety Program regulates food trucks. She has noticed that most food trucks seem to use Styrofoam containers. Food trucks are regulated and inspected, but Styrofoam is allowed by the code. • Arnita asked about educational resources for a friend who teaches fifth graders. Pam recommended programs from kNOw Waste Louisville. Both Pam and Shayla recommended the film Microplastic Madness. On Truth to Power each week, we gather people from around the community to discuss the state of the world, the nation, the state, and the city! It's a community conversation like you won't hear anywhere else! Truth to Power airs every Friday at 9pm, Saturday at 11am, and Sunday at 4pm on Louisville's grassroots, community radio station, Forward Radio 106.5fm WFMP and live streams at https://forwardradio.org

In the latest episode of The Voice of Retail, host Michael LeBlanc sits down with Liza Amlani, Chief Merchant and Principal of Retail Strategy Group, who returns to the podcast to share timely insights from her new book, "The Material Life: Process Innovation for Retailers and Brands" Recognized globally as a retail thought leader, Amlani brings her two decades of merchandising expertise to a provocative argument: the retail industry has been obsessed with what products it sells, while neglecting how those products are made—a blind spot costing brands both time and money.Amlani illustrates how process innovation begins long before a product hits the shelf. Traditional apparel development starts with a design concept, hunting for materials to match. Her materials-first model flips that dynamic, accelerating time to market, reducing over-development, and eliminating redundant fabric, trim, and colour decisions. She cites examples where retailers were creating thousands of unnecessary material variations—like zippers—without realizing the margin erosion and operational chaos this creates.Throughout the conversation, Amlani explains how silos between merchants, sourcing, materials, design, and marketing teams create a “butterfly effect” where one late-stage decision can unravel deadlines, sample production, and vendor negotiations. Breaking those silos strengthens governance, reduces waste, and aligns teams around measurable outcomes including her Material Adoption Rate (MAR) framework—an accountability tool that tracks how many material developments actually make it into assortments.The episode also explores the rising influence of AI in fabric research and digital product creation, the impact of sourcing regulations emerging in North America and Europe, and how leading brands like lululemon are quietly reshaping their operating models through materials-led go-to-market roles. Amlani argues that brands embracing transparency, vendor partnership, and digital material workflows will unlock significant margin upside at a time when inflation, tariffs, supply chain friction, and fast-fashion disruptors are redefining consumer expectations.Finally, the discussion turns to the road ahead. As retailers prepare for 2026, Amlani urges leaders to rethink the fabric of product creation itself, invest in consumer-centric assortments, and treat materials not as an afterthought but as a strategic asset. For retailers, merchants, product developers, and sourcing teams eager to future-proof their business, this episode is a masterclass in modern merchandising excellence. The Voice of Retail podcast is presented by Hale, a performance marketing partner trusted by brands like ASICS, Saje, and Orangetheory to scale with focus and impact. Michael LeBlanc is the president and founder of M.E. LeBlanc & Company Inc, a senior retail advisor, keynote speaker and now, media entrepreneur. He has been on the front lines of retail industry change for his entire career. Michael has delivered keynotes, hosted fire-side discussions and participated worldwide in thought leadership panels, most recently on the main stage in Toronto at Retail Council of Canada's Retail Marketing conference with leaders from Walmart & Google. He brings 25+ years of brand/retail/marketing & eCommerce leadership experience with Levi's, Black & Decker, Hudson's Bay, CanWest Media, Pandora Jewellery, The Shopping Channel and Retail Council of Canada to his advisory, speaking and media practice.Michael produces and hosts a network of leading retail trade podcasts, including the award-winning No.1 independent retail industry podcast in America, Remarkable Retail with his partner, Dallas-based best-selling author Steve Dennis; Canada's top retail industry podcast The Voice of Retail and Canada's top food industry and one of the top Canadian-produced management independent podcasts in the country, The Food Professor with Dr. Sylvain Charlebois from Dalhousie University in Halifax.Rethink Retail has recognized Michael as one of the top global retail experts for the fifth year in a row, the National Retail Federation has designated Michael as on their Top Retail Voices for 2025, Thinkers 360 has named him on of the Top 50 global thought leaders in retail, RTIH has named him a top 100 global though leader in retail technology and Coresight Research has named Michael a Retail AI Influencer.

De Ninja Crispi is de nieuwste compacte airfryer van SharkNinja, bekend van de Creami-ijsmaker en de Slushi. Het apparaat richt zich op klein huishoudelijk gebruik en eenvoudig koken, met een ontwerp dat afwijkt van traditionele airfryers. Dankzij twee glazen bakken – 3,8 liter en 1,4 liter – kun je direct zien hoe het eten gaart. De schalen zijn PFAS-vrij, vaatwasserbestendig en voorzien van bewaardeksels, al zijn ze relatief zwaar en nemen ze veel ruimte in. De Crispi werkt met een PowerPod van 1700 watt en verwarmt tot ongeveer 185 graden. Volgens Ninja gebruikt het toestel tot 50% minder stroom dan een oven, wat in lijn ligt met het algemene voordeel van airfryers bij kleine porties. De bediening is bewust simpel gehouden: vier modi (AirFry, Roast, Keep Warm en ReCrisp) zonder mogelijkheid om zelf de temperatuur in te stellen. Dat maakt het apparaat laagdrempelig, maar minder flexibel bij recepten waarbij temperatuur en tijd nauw luisteren. In gebruik levert de Ninja Crispi consistente resultaten voor snacks, broodjes, vis en kip. De ReCrisp-functie springt eruit: restjes zoals pizza of aardappeltjes worden opnieuw knapperig zonder uitdrogen. Tegelijk is de capaciteit beperkt. De 3,8-liter schaal is geschikt voor zo'n twee personen, eventueel drie bij kleinere porties. Voor grotere maaltijden of gezinnen schiet het apparaat tekort. Daarnaast vraagt het ontbreken van een traditionele lade met handgreep om wat meer handelingen bij het serveren. Qua prijs zit de Crispi in de middenklasse. Hoewel hij oorspronkelijk rond de 180 euro kostte, ligt de actuele verkoopprijs meestal rond de 115 euro. In die prijscategorie zijn airfryers verkrijgbaar met meer inhoud en meer instelmogelijkheden, ook binnen het eigen Ninja-assortiment. De Ninja Crispi is daarmee vooral een compacte, eenvoudige airfryer voor kleine huishoudens die zoeken naar snel en energiezuinig koken, met goede resultaten voor snacks en restjes. Voor wie grotere porties bereidt of gericht zoekt naar precieze temperatuurcontrole, zijn er praktischere alternatieven.

Get My Brand Masterlist⁠ https://drchristiangonzalez.com/best-brands-form-2-2/ Get Dry Cleaning Guide⁠ https://drchristiangonzalez.com/dry-cleaning-pdf-request-form/ Episode Description You might think liver damage comes from alcohol or sugar. But a new USC study reveals the real threat could be hanging in your closet. If you dry clean your clothes even once or twice a month, you're exposing yourself to Perchloroethylene (PCE)—a toxic solvent now strongly linked to liver fibrosis, brain fog, cancer, and even Parkinson's disease. This isn't just a factory worker problem. For many people, routine dry cleaning is the hidden environmental exposure driving chronic health issues no doctor can explain. PCE doesn't just disappear after cleaning. It off-gasses into your home, absorbs through your skin, and accumulates in your liver and nervous system. And the majority of dry cleaners still use it. Without asking the right questions, you have no idea what chemicals are saturating the fabrics touching your body every single day. And your liver, brain, and nervous system are paying the price. In this episode, Dr. Christian Gonzalez breaks down the USC Keck study and reveals how to protect yourself from this silent toxin: • Why dry cleaning increases your odds of liver fibrosis by 3X • The neurotoxic chemical triggering brain fog, headaches, and nervous system dysregulation • The Cancer and Parkinson's link researchers are now confirming • The exact 3 questions to ask your dry cleaner today to protect your family • The PFAS trap hiding in stain-proof and wrinkle-free fabrics (forever chemicals that never leave your body) • How PCE contaminates local groundwater and creates toxic exposure for entire communities This episode goes beyond your closet. It's a wake-up call about the pervasive, invisible toxins lurking in everyday life—and how to take action now to protect your liver, stabilize your nervous system, and reclaim your health.

Biosolids are an unavoidable byproduct of wastewater treatment, and U.S. utilities are facing increasing challenges managing them amid tightening landfill capacity, rising hauling costs, and growing concerns about contaminants like PFAS. With 6.3 million dry metric tons produced every year, biosolids are becoming one of the fastest-growing operating expenses for wastewater utilities. In this episode of The Future of Water, host Reese Tisdale is joined by Bluefield's Pat Byrne to break down the current state of biosolids management in the U.S.—from landfilling and incineration to beneficial use pathways—and to highlight the regional disparities, regulatory pressures, and emerging technologies reshaping utility strategies. What biosolids are, how they're produced, and the main disposal and beneficial use pathways utilities rely on. The rising challenges of landfilling and incineration, including high costs, methane emissions, aging facilities, and limited capacity. The growing influence of PFAS, microplastics, and pharmaceuticals, and why utilities are passive receivers of these contaminants. How biosolids have become one of the fastest-growing operating costs, with annual spending rising from US$2.5B in 2025 to US$4.8B in 2035. Significant regional disparities, from high costs and tight capacity in the Northeast to heavier landfill reliance in the Southeast. New technologies and delivery models—from drying and dewatering to pyrolysis, gasification, SCWO, and DBOOM structures—reshaping future strategies.
