We all live a plastic life, but some more than others. In this episode, we discuss the pervasiveness of hormonal dysfunction that stem from plastic use and how it relates to PMS, autoimmune disease, weight gain, and estrogen dominance.

AnnMarie shares the approach she used to mend her binge eating issues and Justin shares some preliminary tools you can begin to explore using to help with your relationship with food.

In this episode, we speak on this intense subject - how it's intertwined with binging eating and ultimately, how your emotional state and daily behaviors mold your kid's eating and lifestyle motor patterns.
