The Hidden Life of Toxins: Non-Toxic & Natural Living

The Hidden Life of Toxins is the podcast that does toxin-free living research for you! Become a well-educated, empowered consumer and have clear information on toxin-free living WITHOUT hours of research and hundreds of Google searches. In 2015, while looking for ways to improve her health, Christina discovered a sobering and life-changing truth: we are exposed to hundreds of toxins every day. There are harmful chemicals in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat, and the products we use – from makeup and toothpaste to clothing, furniture, and even children’s toys. Christina started learning everything she could about toxins, how they have made their way into every part of our lives, and what we can do about it. She then applied what she had learned and watched her health improve. She has spent over seven years researching toxins and created this podcast so that you don’t have to dedicate years of YOUR life looking for this information. Let’s explore the hidden life of toxins!

In this episode, you’re going to learn about a common food additive that sounds very safe and natural but in reality isn’t. 

I’m talking about citric acid. 

You have probably seen it on ingredient labels and, chances are you believe it to be just an acid from citrus fruits or even concentrated lemon juice. 

I used to think that, too. 

Until I did some thorough research and learned the truth. 

Citric acid is widely used in foods and supp...

In this episode, you’re going to learn about a very toxic ingredient that hides in your healthy foods and supplements. 

I’m talking about natural flavors. 

Natural lemon flavor, berry flavor, vanilla flavor, and many others…

They look so harmless on product labels.

When it comes to artificial flavors, you are probably avoiding those already. 

But natural flavors… 

They are a healthy alternative, right? 

When I learned the truth about natu...

In this episode, you're going to learn about five groups of widely used but problematic ingredients in personal care products: Formaldehyde Releasers, Parabens, Butylated Compounds, Petroleum-Based Ingredients, and Ethoxylated Ingredients.

In this episode, you’re going to learn if the baking soda you’re using is toxic.

Spoiler alert: there are two types of baking soda. 

I used to think “Baking soda is baking soda, right?” 

Well, not really. 

The end product known as sodium bicarbonate is the same. 

But there are two different ways that baking soda can be sourced. 

Also, if you’re using aluminum-free baking soda, you are in for a big surprise.

In this episode, you’re going to learn if BPA-free plastic is actually better. 

BPA-free food containers, water bottles, baby bottles…

Do you use them? 

Do you believe them to be safe? 

Hate to break it to you, but... you got tricked. 

You and me both! I still have a couple of fancy BPA-free food containers I don’t use. 

Today, I’m going to explain how BPA-free plastics can be as bad (or even worse than!) plastics that contain BPA.

You might have heard that EMFs are harmful. You also might have heard the exact opposite. 

If you’re confused, you’re not the only one. A lot of people are confused about this topic. Seven years ago, I was too. 

I often see people go to great lengths to reduce their EMF exposure and even buy EMF meters to use in their homes – and yet, they don’t really know what EMFs are. 

If this is you, it’s okay! No one has ever explained this to y...
