The widespread use of thousands of chemicals in our everyday lives has tarnished the quality of our air, water, and food supply — and their impact is not benign. We can radically reduce their impact on human and environmental health by raising awareness of where these chemicals hide and taking steps to lessen our exposure.

Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with Darin Olien, co-host of the Emmy Award Winning Netflix docu-series, Down to Earth with Zac Efron, to discuss the top hidden toxins found in our everyday products. Dhru and Darin discuss the sources of forever chemicals that invade our water, food, and clothes. They discuss concerns around EMF exposure and fragrance, why we need to phase endocrine-disrupting chemicals out of industrial production, and what gets in the way of that happening.

Darin has spent nearly 20 years as a Superfood hunter exploring and discovering new and underutilized exotic foods and medicinal plants. From his years of experience within the health space, he wrote his New York Times best-selling book, SuperLife: The five fixes that will keep you healthy, fit, and eternally awesome. Darin is the host of the wildly popular podcast The Darin Olien Show, where he curiously explores people, solutions, and health as well as life’s Fatal Conveniences™ – a segment of the show uncovering modern-day flaws and challenges that may be undermining our health and our environment. Fatal Conveniences is also the title of Darin’s new book.

-Hidden toxins found in tap water
