“Dr. Patrick discusses plastic-lined cans and PFAS-treated microwave-popcorn bags as additional exposure sources and recommends not microwaving food in plastic, not leaving plastic bottles in heat, and using glass or stainless steel for hot foods and drinks.”

“Microplastics are tiny plastic fragments that contaminate our food, water, and air, making exposure nearly unavoidable. Even healthy choices—such as brushing our teeth or drinking plenty of water—bring us into contact with vast amounts of microplastics.”

“There is so much to say when we talk about the NRF2 pathway and isothiocyanates like sulforaphane that we had to pack it into 47 minutes and break it into a few key sections. Key sections: For a more in-depth breakdown click the timeline link at the top of this page!”

“Dr. Patrick recommends transferring food to glass or ceramic before heating and treating BPA-free labels cautiously because replacement chemicals can have their own biological activity.”

“For a product-selection companion to these exposure-reduction strategies, read Dr. Patrick's analysis of how reliably “clean” labels describe finished personal-care and cleaning products. A nontargeted laboratory study found far more compounds than labels disclosed, but it did not measure absorbed dose or show that the tested products caused disease.”

“Physical activity, sleep, light exposure, heat, and certain nutrients may all affect systems involved in mood regulation, including inflammation, circadian rhythms, neuroplasticity, and brain energy metabolism. In this Aliquot, Drs.”

“Prospective human cohorts have reported associations between prenatal BPA measurements and later child behavior, sometimes with sex-specific patterns, but results are inconsistent and residual confounding remains possible.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on The School of Greatness, she explains how she narrows a long supplement routine to three priorities: marine omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, and sulforaphane.”

“For omega-3s, salmon provides EPA and DHA in a whole-food matrix, but fish can also contain mercury and microplastics; well-characterized purified products may reduce exposure to some contaminants but are not nutritionally identical to fish.”

“A growing body of scientific evidence suggests that moringin, an isothiocyanate compound derived from moringa, may provide protection against chronic diseases, such as cancer and diabetes, and may be useful in treating the symptoms of mental disorders, such as schizophrenia or autism, especially in developing countries.”
