Sinopsis

"Plastic Toxins Guide" tackles the pervasive issue of harmful plastic chemicals and their impact on human health and the environment. It highlights how everyday plastics can expose us to toxins like phthalates, bisphenols (including BPA), and PFAS, which are linked to endocrine disruption, reproductive issues, and even increased cancer risk. Understanding the potential health risks associated with plastic exposure is crucial, especially given the exponential increase in plastic usage since the mid-20th century. The book navigates the complex science behind how these chemicals leach into our food, water, and air, and subsequently interact with our bodies. By drawing upon scientific literature, government reports, and expert opinions, "Plastic Toxins Guide" empowers readers to make informed decisions about their plastic consumption. It uniquely progresses from basic concepts to practical applications, culminating in a guide to reducing plastic exposure in daily life, from food choices to home furnishings. Ultimately, this guide provides actionable information for health-conscious individuals and environmental advocates alike. It addresses the science in an accessible way, enabling readers to reduce their exposure and advocate for systemic changes towards safer alternatives.

A Rare Recording of John R Brinkley

John R. Brinkley

John R. Brinkley (July 8, 1885 – May 26, 1942) became nationally known as the "goat gland doctor" for his controversial medical practice that promised virility for his male patients. He was a pioneer in radio broadcasting and advertising, as he promoted his services to his large listening audience. 
Despite detractors and critics in the medical community thoroughly discrediting his methods, Brinkley operated clinics and hospitals in several states for two decades. When opposition from the organized medical community resulted in revocation of his radio and medical license he turned to politics, with two failed runs for the governorship of Kansas.  
Brinkley's rise to fame and fortune was as precipitous as his eventual fall: At the height of his career he had amassed millions of dollars; yet he died sick and nearly penniless, as a result of a number of malpractice, wrongful death and fraud suits brought against him.

Addison’s Antidote

Craig Beck

Millions of people around the world have been diagnosed with incurable autoimmune diseases like Addison’s. Debilitating conditions that make us tired, ill, and miserable. The only solution the medical industry offers are side-effect riddled maintenance drugs such as steroids and painkillers.Getting a formal diagnosis of Addison’s Disease is often a lengthy and challenging process. Many never get a medical confirmation of what is happening to their mind and body at all! Countless individuals live in constant pain and discomfort because they incorrectly assume all their health problems are the natural result of aging.Unfortunately, Craig Beck joined this ill-health demographic at the age of 48. After suffering months of severe symptoms, eventually, he too got handed the autoimmunity life sentence. However, rather than accept the hand as it was dealt. He remembered that the best medicine for a long and healthy life is found at the end of your fork, not the doctor's prescription pad. Craig decided to fall back on his research into natural medicine. He designed a diet and lifestyle that made inflammation the enemy and target. A process that would show amazing success at pushing Addison’s Disease firmly into near-permanent remission. In this special Addison’s addition of the Autoimmune Antidote, you will gain valuable insight into the new, natural approach that can help you prevent and maybe even reverse the life-limiting symptoms of Addison’s Disease and other inflammatory health problems. www.CraigBeck.com
