Immunological problems and autoimmune diseases are increasing at an alarming rate in today's world. In an environment rife with untested and unregulated chemicals, radiation, and light and noise pollution, these immune disruptors (IDCs) cause imbalances in our bodies. While variables such as age, medication use, and overall health influence the functioning of our immune system, physicians strive to help their patients find viable solutions for the chronic illnesses they suffer from. In this book, integrative rheumatologist Aly Cohen proposes a solution to minimize exposure to immune-disrupting substances and activate the body's natural detoxification mechanisms. Using clear and accessible language, Dr. Cohen explains the surprising ways in which environmental pollutants affect our bodies, linking specific symptoms and conditions to daily exposure. In these pages, you will discover what lurks in your water, food, personal care products, and household items. And, most importantly, you'll be able to explore simple and affordable ways to live a more toxin-free life. Through four pillars that will allow you to improve your environmental health, questionnaires to assess the risk of toxins, and a 21-day plan to significantly reduce exposure to toxic substances and improve detoxification processes, this book is full of valuable resources that will help you transform your life.
