Do You Need a Plastic Detox? Breaking Down How Everyday Household Items May Be Affecting Your Fertility with Dr. Shanna Swan

What if the products you use every single day—your water bottle, your skincare, your food containers—are quietly impacting your fertility? In this episode, Ali dives into The Plastic Detox on Netflix—the documentary that has everyone questioning what’s in their homes (and their bodies). Ali is joined by Dr. Shanna Swan, one of the world’s leading researchers on environmental exposures and reproductive health—and a featured expert in the film. Ali and Dr. Swan talk about how the doc came to be, the real link between plastics, chemicals, and fertility, and how you can make realistic, non-overwhelming changes in your daily life.
