In this eye-opening episode, we explore how our toxic environment is fueling an epidemic of chronic illness—starting before birth. Shocking studies reveal that newborns are now born with over 200 toxic chemicals in their bodies, setting the stage for lifelong health issues like obesity, cancer, and diabetes. Dr. Stewart Lonky, a renowned physician and expert in environmental medicine, breaks down the science behind "toxic fat" and how these hidden chemicals disrupt our biology. With over 40 years of clinical and research experience, Dr. Lonky shares his groundbreaking approach to identifying, preventing, and eliminating toxins through his AIPE protocol. He also discusses the connection between detoxification, oxygen, and metabolic health, offering real-world strategies to outsmart modern chronic disease.
