Thisnthread is for discussion of health related topics.
Specifically, stuff like limiting BPA, and other cancer causing substances.
Will make a pastebin later.
Question for anons.
Do you filter your water?
Do you use only stainless steel cookware?
Do you wear synthetic clothing?
What can others do to improve their health?

Corporations are to blame, why should the individual change their lives so extensively, futher increasing the corporations profits from products they sell to use to solve the "issue" they created? Those with the means and resources to clean this situation up are those who caused it in the first place.
Look do you want microplastics in your blood or not? b***hing about corporations won't help you.
The only good thing about capitalism is that if there is enough consumer demand then the corpos will find a way to supply it, even if what is being demanded goes against the political agenda of the elite.
If enough people demanded easy to use privacy protections, then a privacy industry would spring up.
If enough people demanded schizo tier health and fitness products like super-water filters and no plastic anything, then corpos would eventually supply it.
Case and point, there's an entire alternative education industry that has popped up to replace the over-priced college industry.
Part of the reason things are fricked is that the finanace industry and wallstreet has sucked all the money out of the economy and using it to bribe corpos to do their bidding but thankfully even Blackrock doesn't have enough cash to pay cropos what consumers used to pay corpos.
Thank god what is good for the economy is the opposite of what is good for political ideologies and agendas.
part of the reason we have junkfood hellscapes is it's just the end result of corporate optimization of what people wanted the most, fast, tasty, cheap.
When people started caring more about health things like chipoltle sprung up and grocery stores started labeling eggs and meat as "cage free".
Corpos will give you what you want as long as enough people also want it.
Thing is, corpos will give you what you want, but at the lowest possible price and effort, to maximize there profits. They'll do some seriously shady shit just to cut costs.
>WE WANT SUSTAINABILITY cry the consumers
>lmao, okay says the corpos
>here we recycled plastic are you happy
>consumers are happy
>consumers don't know better
The whole principle of the thing is defeated because corpos are trying to spend as little effort on the issue as possible.
Here's what I do to try to mitigate my exposure to modern toxins
>Never microwave plastic. I store leftover food in plastic containers but always transfer to a plate to heat up
>Cook my own food instead of going to McGoynalds
>Use butter or olive oil as cooking oil whenever possible, instead of seed oils
>Drink water from Brita filter
>Wash hands after touching receipts
>Don't get the flu shot anymore
>Only cook in stainless steel or cast iron
I know there's more I could be doing, but that's what I can feasibly manage
No
No
Yes
>receipts
Has to be a meme, there's no way the exposure isn't negligible
What is that, a berkey? That's just a big charcoal filter OP, it will not remove estrogen, SSRIs, or microplastics from your water. The only guaranteed solution is an under the sink reverse osmosis filter with a remineralizer
Jesus, are you fricking kidding me? I thought it would take care of everything.
I mean I know it takes care of micro plastics, see the vid on westernman.org about it.
>SSRIs
>Estrogen
There's
no way that's in drinking water.
>Mineralisation
Just add it yourself
Phone posting but don’t talk shit about my Berkey, homosexual
I love this berkey homie like you wouldn’t believe
So far:
Steel pan but need steal slow cooker
No berley filter
All glass meal prep containers (microwave them though)
Want to replace synthetic clothes with cotton
Also vape but am going to buy nicotine pouches instead.
>Gonna buy a Berkey next month
>>Tap water is (thankfully) not fluoridated here
>Have a cast iron pan, gonna switch completely once my old non-stick croaks
>Did the switch from mostly cotton to mostly wool this year, need to wash the stuff like once every month or two now with no smell (except for socks right after wearing) because it's anti-microbial and anti-bacterial.
>Don't even own a microwave, everything that needs to be reheated gets a second time in the pan or put in the oven
>Use olive oil, coconut oil, (cold-pressed) sesame oil or lard for cooking
Life is good over all
Why not cotton anon? Love my organic cotton shirts very comfy tbh.
Also how do you keep wool clothes fresh? Do you just cycle through them? I've heard you have to hand wash that shit.
recycled plastic is even worse
and NO kind of any paraffine made stuff like baby oil
holy shit how can this shit be even allowed to apply on little babys
I don't know what's worse, the scum forcing plastics into everything everywhere, or the morons falling for all the environmental bullshit. If the ecotards were the only ones getting cancer, fine, but all the microplastics ending up in everyones' life because of a few braindead environmentalists is just sickening.
Just buy a distiller instead of an overpriced brita filter
>water distiller
>glass or stainless steel for food contact
>cotton and wool fabric
Covered already but these are the non diet fixes that will get you most of the way there. Distillation is the easiest, cheapest no fuss water fix. Remineralization is not necessary, who is trying to hit their RDA through guzzling water? For fabrics, look at bedding after you deal with clothing. For cookware gay non stick coatings can hide in appliances like rice cookers.
Look into getting an air purifier because of all the shit they pump in the air with chemtrails. PM2.5 pollution is linked with neurological disorders, inflammatory problems, and more. Monsanto had to genetically engineered aluminum resistant crops for God’s sake. I think they did some studies with elderly and there’s even a link to muscle and bone wasting.
