Anti-microbials can be found in preservatives, medicines, and personal care products. You might be thinking why are they on the list – don’t they prevent the spread of disease? They do, but overuse leads to anti-microbial resistance. Furthermore, these products contain immunotoxin and neurotoxic compounds with brain-damaging properties. Anti-microbial soaps contain endocrine disrupting chemicals which leads to infertility, thyroid issues, obesity, and cancer. Over-use of anti-microbial cleaning products and disinfectants is not healthy or effective. So, skip the chemical-laden soaps and stick to regular soap and water!

Lastly, researchers have found air pollution to be a cause of Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. Did you know that idling your car for more than 10 seconds causes more air pollution than just turning it off and on again? You can do your part by avoiding excessive idling and carpooling, walking, biking, or riding public transportation.
