Low Tox Life

Hello! Welcome to the Low Tox Life podcast - the place to bring your low tox life to life across all low tox pillars: Food. Body. Home. Mind. Planet. We cover it all to support you and your goals with some of the best minds in the world joining me each week. I'm Alexx Stuart, your host, and in 2009 I coined the term 'low tox' and started lowtoxlife.com. From there I've created 10 courses and had 2 books published (Low Tox Life and Low Tox Life FOOD; I've written countless research articles and recipes to inspire a low tox life. I am thrilled to bring this podcast to you as an extension of the online community, filled with multi-passionate people from around the world. The concept of living a Low Tox Life is one that rejects perfection, black and white notions of there only being one way to 'do it right'. Instead, we take a relaxed and curious approach to better choices to incorporate into our lives as and if they fit. Low Tox therefore instead of 'no tox' as people come together from all walks of life; from cities to regional and remote areas to work from our overlaps and all be part of the many solutions toward healthy people and planet. Forget wasting time feeling bad about what you're not doing or you didn't know yesterday. Let's feel awesome about what we can learn and do from today! Thanks for being here.

    404. Jordanna Levin: Your powerful invitation from astrology awaits

    Is astrology woo woo or one of the most powerful tools we have to become more aware of ourselves and others and the way we all interact?  Jordanna Levin author of “All Signs Point to You” and astrologer takes us on a SUPER fascinating journey through charting, stereotypes, archetypes, influences and road maps - and even responds to an astrology take-down issued by one of my fave people, Adam Grant (we love you Adam, genuinely, but I had to see what Jordanna thought!)  Jordanna Levin is the bestselling author of Make It Happen, Higher Love and Make You Happen, and hosts the popular astrology podcast Lunar Lover. With her background in journalism, Jordanna has built a reputation for taking ‘big’ topics and making them relatable, digestible and downright entertaining. Through her wit, warmth and street-smart practicality she invites readers to get curious about the things that light them up. Jordanna is also a trained astrologer, flexing her skills through her weekly podcast show Lunar Lover, and by offering natal chart readings to clients so that they can understand themselves more intimately creating more self awareness.  I hope you love the show as much as I enjoyed this topic exploration. I was so excited about my chart by the end of it that for the first time in 25 years (yep, after ‘that’ break up in my 20s. ha!) I booked in to get my chart done. Yes I did. 😘💡 Thank you to this month’s show sponsor for helping you make your low tox swaps easier:  @ausclimate gives you 10% off their range for the whole of 2024, with brilliant Winix Air Purifiers, the best Dehumidifiers I’ve ever used and their new energy-efficient heating range. code LOWTOXLIFE https://bit.ly/ShopAusclimate @therahealth Nordic Naturals have a reputation as one of the purest, best-tested fish oil supplements in the world and one we’ve had in our family for 16 years.

    403. Holistic dermatology: a better way forward for our skin challenges with Dr Julie Greenberg

    Skin conditions and treatments. That is this week’s show with naturopathic doctor and herbalist Dr Julie Greenberg, founder of rootcausedermatology.com, helping clinicians get to the root of why skin presentations might be happening for that person and how to treat more holistically. She founded her clinic in LA, USA, The Center for Integrative & Naturopathic Dermatology Inc where she also sees patients to support them.  We discuss:  How we treat skin conditions today and how it’s a broken system, needing stronger and stronger topical treatments and injectibles over time, used on younger and younger patients than was initially considered safe. How we can free ourselves from feeling ‘bad’ for what we’ve done to treat our skin issues in the past and see a place for SOS while we work on the long game. The difference between eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis. How the gut and immune function are intertwined, and can then impact our skinThe sun, the bad wrap it gets, how it relates to the 2 different types of cancers called ‘skin cancers’ and what we need to be doing to have a preventative approach to skin cancers.  We’ve done a few shows on skin issues in the past if you need more shows on skin, here they are:  Asha Everts Part 1 and Part 2 Kiran Krishnan, microbiologist on leaky gut and skinLiezel Barnard on strengthening our skin preventatively  And a brilliant masterclass we did on the “Skin Stress Cycle” with live Q&A with Dr Jude Lenart, is in our membership archive library - you can join the Low Tox Club any time for just $49AUD for the year and there are lots of lovely perks if you do! 600+ people can’t be wrong?

    402. Michael Pinto - Toxic Buildings, Mold solution debunking + what if it’s not mold - what else could it be?

    The most common question I get that comes up is about how to “clean” mold!? (Pro tip: switch to saying remove not ‘clean’ or ‘kill’.) Michael Pinto has been in the business of identifying harmful hazards in the home from mould to asbestos, to lead and more, for over 40 years, and now semi retired, I cheekily thought he might have time for me to data mine his experience - and he said yes! We cover: Knowing how detailed you need to go in your cleaning when it comes to mould and the people in your house (ie, do you have a ‘sensitised’ person) VacuumsClothsChemicalsSteam cleaning ins/outs And so much more… So, if you’ve ever wondered about how to thoroughly clean your home when it comes to finding a bit of surface mould, or when you’ve moved somewhere new to ensure it’s properly clean or maybe after remediation when you aren’t able to pay for the whole-home clean up?  This one’s for you!  More about our guest… Michael A. Pinto served as the CEO of Wonder Makers Environmental. Although based in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Michael’s acknowledged expertise in dealing with a wide variety of indoor environmental issues, as well as safety and health concerns, has led to helping clients around the world. With six books and over 230 published articles in his 45 years as a professional, Michael has specialized in “translating” difficult technical material to make it understandable to the layperson. Over his career Michael has developed hundreds of training programs and technical presentations; training over 12,000 students.   As would be expected, Michael has a number of professional certifications including Certified Safety Professional (CSP), Safety Management Specialist (SMS), Registered Third-Party Evaluator (RTPE), Certified Mold Professional (CMP), Certified Forensic Operator (CFO), Fire Loss Specialist (FLS) And Environmental Risk Specialist (ERS). Michael can be reached at map@wondermakers.com.  You can also connect with Michael on the following platforms; Website— https://www.wondermakers.com/  And a list of articles he’s written to help contractors https://www.wondermakers.com/Education/Articles/Quick-References-for-Contractors Alexx x Thank you to this month’s show sponsors for helping you make your low tox swaps easier:  @ausclimate gives you 10% off their range for the whole of 2024, with brilliant Winix Air Purifiers, the best Dehumidifiers I’ve ever used and their new energy-efficient heating range. code LOWTOXLIFE https://bit.ly/ShopAusclimate @therahealth Nordic Naturals have a reputation as one of the purest, best-tested fish oil supplements in the world and one we’ve had in our family for 16 years.

    401. Devorah Heitner: Growing Up in Public: Coming of Age in a Digital World

    As with all things, I believe in finding people who can help us navigate the nuanced way forward - is there a way our kids can healthily grow up in public?  Devorah Heitner PhD has been asking this with curiosity both as a parent and a researcher and in today’s show, we unpack exactly that question. Her book “Growing up in Public” is a must read so that we understand our kid’s social dynamics today better, and so that we know where boundary and protection are required, as well as curiosity and patience.  Kids are growing up more in public than ever. While we discuss meaningful ways that we can ensure they get to live childhoods more connected to each other than they are to their screens, I genuinely feel it’s important to have a conversation about the world that exists and how best to navigate it, than to simply wish it weren’t like it was and ban everything. The tech algorithms favour fear and outrage and so nuanced explorations on this topic are hard to find.  Please help me amplify it.  Dr. Heitner’s work has appeared in the New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and CNN Opinion. She has a Ph.D. in Media/Technology & Society from Northwestern University and has taught at DePaul and Northwestern. She is delighted to be raising her own teenager and she lives with her family in Chicagoland.  Letting kids use phone during the school day? Bad idea. Using screens as babysitting to save on childcare costs? No judgement. It’s complicated with multiple things at play as to how many families got there. Kids needing more places to hang and connect than home or shopping centre mall? HECK yes.  I hope you find the show useful.  Alexx x Thank you to this month’s show sponsors for helping you make your low tox swaps easier:  @ausclimate gives you 10% off their range for the whole of 2024, with brilliant Winix Air Purifiers, the best Dehumidifiers I’ve ever used and their new energy-efficient heating range. code LOWTOXLIFE https://bit.ly/ShopAusclimate @blockbluelight_official gives you 20% off site-wide, including their brilliant red light panels, to help you achieve the perfect light balance in your home and for quality sleep, rest and repair.

    400. It’s the 400 Show Birthday. On the menu? Breaking up with our programming, deep love for self, connection with the natural world and a call to establish what your ‘enough’ looks like with Bruce Lipton, Charles Eisenstein, Sage Magdalene & Jad

    Show 400 - How did we get here!? Well, it took a few people to get this show to where it is today and I’ll list them below because if you’re reading this, you’re one of them. In the show today, I’ve chosen 4 excerpts from past shows that weave together in funny ways, once I listened to them all in a row… 10 or so minutes from each of these deep-from-the-archive shows that are every bit as necessary and useful today, as they were when I first published them. 1. Bruce Lipton - on breaking the programs we downloaded very young, and changing your energy to change your life. 2. Charles Eisenstein - on self love quests being perhaps the wrong tactic, yet self love being the key to being free of judgement of the ‘others’ and carving a path to de-polarising our world.  3. Sage Magdalene - on the invitation nature gives us to have more reverence for the big things happening everyday around us that we don’t notice, and yet if we did? 4. Jade Miles - on Future Steading and how we can apply the principle of living aligned with a world that has a future, from wherever we are and whatever we can do to restore balance in our lives.  I hope you enjoy these excerpts and I encourage you if you remember listening to it ‘back then’ to listen again. You, the listeners - no point making a podcast if no one shows up to listen!Our incredible guests across food, body, home, mind, family and environmental topics. Stevie my producer who’s been with me since the beginning.Norie and Ele on my team who help with coordinating the guests, research prep, prepping the podcast docs with all the info we need, moving files into folders, creating show notes, transcripts and social media tiles…Our sponsors who help the show happen weekly but also help you make your swaps with their ever-generous offers.Thank you to this month’s show sponsor for helping you make your low tox swaps easier:  @ausclimate gives you 10% off their range for the whole of 2024, with brilliant Winix Air Purifiers, the best Dehumidifiers I’ve ever used and their new energy-efficient heating range. code LOWTOXLIFE https://bit.ly/ShopAusclimate @blockbluelight_official gives you 20% off site-wide, including their brilliant red light panels, to help you achieve the perfect light balance in your home and for quality sleep, rest and repair.

    399. Toddler to Table: How to set your little people up for life through connection and food experiences.

    Did you feel like kids connected with kids and adults with adults regarding food? Separate times, separate tables, dumbed-down ‘fun’ food?  This week we are talking food and little people - Toddlers to be specific given the wonderful Luka from Book to Food has a new book available for pre-order and soon for real “Toddler to Table”.  It is a stunner of a book but what I love most about the book and our conversation, as someone who spent years educating on family food in the earlier years of Low Tox Life is that we talked about:  how people’s backgrounds and childhoods affect our views on foodOur own experiences of shift work - two reformed Up-And-Go breakfast gals - true story and how conveniences needed re-teaching/re-defining.Luka explains why she’ll never do a day on a plate and why it’s easier for her to put a big focus on food in her life - LOVE THAT THIS CAME UP - Ever felt guilty following homemaker accounts, food accounts or zero-waste peeps? Remember they do it FULL TIME.Agency and choice within boundaries and a family food settingFood refusal - when to work on it as an ‘issue’ vs not sweating the small stuff.The Family Table and coming together and the impact it has.And so much more - enjoy! And Toddler to Table is available for Preorder if you or someone in your life has a toddler - it is a STUNNER and about so much more than just recipes.

    398. Beyond academics and accomplishments: What Truly Matters for Teens with Maggie Dent

    Being a teen is harder than ever before and it’s showing in the stats and research.  BUT, this is not about going down the fear road, nor is it all about crying “it’s social media” as an over simplified solution.  We also need to do a LOT more to diversify the ‘success’ picture during school years, help them matter, feel the love and find themselves as they journey through individuation into adulthood.  All while they huff at us, sometimes act out, show us rudeness and do things beyond our comprehension often - now is not the time to be offended, nor to come down hard. So what do we do as parents, carers, teachers and coaches?  We go in curious and from a place of love, while learning from the best: Enter @maggiedentauthor - A powerFULL show  I have listened back to it again already.

    397. How to test your hormones - The nuance, age, stage, timing and situation: All the gold you’d expect with Dr Leah Hechtman

    If you’ve been confused about hormone testing - this week’s show is here to help.  @drleahhechtman PhD, takes us through hormone testing options for age, stage and situation, as well as things that impact the accuracy of a test.  We cover:  Saliva, Urine and Blood testing - when which one or all are helpful and for whom. What reference ranges are based on - and most of us aren’t IT 😳Pill effects at puberty & perimenopause (without shaming!) The constraints with the medicare model for test ordering and clinical significance, ie, a lot can be done before a crisis occurs that requires a medication. How urine testing can be your best guide when considering HRTHistamine and run-away estrogen - there’s usually a 3rd party reason beyond hormones that this pathway is activated. How progesterone is the good, reliable friend that keeps estrogen from too many wild parties! What you can achieve without spending any $$$ exploring your hormone health, up to the breadth of what one can do if you wanted to.  How’s that for ground covered!?  Dr Leah Hechtman (PhD) is a globally respected naturopathic clinician, a revered lecturer and a sought-after keynote speaker who is widely recognised for her expertise, receiving numerous referrals from specialists and fertility clinics on a global scale. Such a pleasure to have her back on the show.  Hope you love it as much as we loved recording it for you, Alexx x Thank you to this month’s show sponsors for helping you make your low tox swaps easier:  @ausclimate gives you 10% off their range for the whole of 2024, with brilliant Winix Air Purifiers, the best Dehumidifiers I’ve ever used and their new energy-efficient heating range. code LOWTOXLIFE https://bit.ly/ShopAusclimate @blockbluelight_official gives you 20% off site-wide, including their brilliant red light panels, to help you achieve the perfect light balance in your home and for quality sleep, rest and repair.
