Did you know that most women use, on average, 12 personal care products each day? That translates to putting about 168 chemicals onto your body every time you use them. Unfortunately, some of those chemical ingredients are endocrine disruptors or carcinogens. So how do you know if you’re using products with these so-called “toxic” ingredients? Shannon Garcia, registered dietitian and an expert on reducing the toxin load in your home, is talking us through ingredients to avoid; which products are the biggest offenders when it comes to toxin exposure; and her favorite safer brands when it comes to skincare, cleaning products, laundry, and more.  Today’s guest is Media Dietitian and Safer Living Expert, Shannon A.

If the supplement creatine makes you think of sweaty meatheads at Gold’s Gym, you’re in for a big surprise with this episode. Quite frankly, creatine deserves a totally new marketing campaign. In fact, by the end of recording this episode, we came to the same conclusion as today’s expert guest, Jenna Braddock. Every woman should seriously consider creatine supplements for their physical health, body composition, as well as mental wellness. Jenna not only explains the benefits of creatine, but she also shares exactly how much to take and which type of creatine to buy.    Show Notes:    Here’s how to find Jenna Braddock, RDN IG: https://www.instagram.com/make.healthy.easy/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/MakeHealthyEasy/   Read Jenna’s article here: Why Women Should Consider Taking Creatine Thank you for listening to The Happy Eating Podcast.
