Obesity is now at epidemic proportions. Eating a healthy diet and exercise, while crucial to lose excess fat, there is a little known fact that can prevent millions of people from ever losing weight.
According to the federal government, the most prevalent environmental toxin in the human body nowadays are a group of chemicals known as phthalates. They are found in the air, water, plastic beverage bottles, food packaging, cosmetics, nail polish, mattresses, sofas, carpet, clothing, medication, styrofoam cups, vinyl flooring, construction materials, electrical wiring, and computers. Phthalates not only contribute to obesity, they have been associated with chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, ADHD, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, allergies, and much more.
Comments: To measure the amount of phthalates stockpiled in your body, we utilize a special urine toxicology test from Genova Diagnostics. Depending on the results, we then begin an aggressive detoxification protocol.
