Your workout clothes are probably the most toxic items in your entire home - and you're wearing them while you sweat.
In this eye-opening conversation with Hannah Dunning, founder of The Hannah Dunning Project, we expose the alarming truth about chemicals in clothing. From BPA and phthalates to formaldehyde, the toxins lurking in your wardrobe are affecting your health every single day, especially in items like workout clothes and bras that sit directly on your skin.
The research is clear: your washing machine is one of the largest contributors to microplastics, and "sustainable" materials like bamboo aren't as natural as you think. We dive deep into the best and worst fabrics, why recycled polyester isn't the answer, and how to make better choices without overwhelming your budget.
Whether you're just starting your toxin-free journey or looking to take your clean living to the next level, this episode provides practical, realistic steps for detoxing your wardrobe. Learn what to swap first, how to identify truly clean materials, and why your clothing choices matter more than you might think for your overall health.
In today's episode, we're chatting about:
• Why workout clothes and bras are the worst toxic offenders
• The truth about bamboo fabric and recycled polyester
• How to identify the cleanest, least toxic fabrics
• Practical steps for detoxing your wardrobe on a budget
• Why natural fibers are worth the investment for your health
