What we put on and in our body gets absorbed straight into our bloodstream. Now more than ever we are exposed to so many chemicals in our daily life. In fact, more than 200 chemicals are found in the umbilical cord of babies. Chemicals are in our food, water, clothing, home products, beauty products, and more and if you want to take yours and your family’s health to the next level it’s time to remove them. Low tox queen Alexx Stuart is here to teach you how. Alexx is going to share with us all her secrets, tips and favorite products so you can SHIFT to a low tox life.

I love that she understands how going low tox is a journey that takes time, patience and compassion with ourselves and others. I can’t wait for you to listen to this life-changing episode.
