Ben Greenfield: The Dirty Truth About Your UNDERWEAR, Cooking Oil & Chair? Microplastics, Hormones, Seed Oils & More
Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Switch to organic, natural fiber underwear to avoid hormone-disrupting chemicals like formaldehyde and perfluorinated compounds found in synthetic materials.
- Avoid cooking with seed oils (e.g., soybean, canola, sunflower oil) due to their high omega-6 content, which can promote inflammation. Opt for healthier fats like olive oil, avocado oil, or ghee.
- Minimize microplastic exposure by avoiding plastic food containers, opting for glass or stainless steel, and filtering drinking water.
- Stand more, sit less to reduce the negative health impacts of prolonged sitting, such as poor posture and reduced circulation.
Bottom Line
Make simple swaps in your daily life—choose natural fabrics, healthier cooking oils, and non-plastic containers—to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals and improve overall health.
