  • Hi I'm Dr. Zyrowski from NuVisionExcel.com and in this video we're gonna

  • be talking about the top endocrine disrupting chemicals that are in your

  • food. Whether you're going to the grocery store and getting fresh fruits and

  • vegetables or you're getting packaged foods there's so many different

  • chemicals that are found in our foods today that are disrupting normal bodily

  • function as you know it. Now an endocrine disruptor is anything that or I should

  • say any pollutant that interrupts normal biological pathways within an organism.

  • That organism being your body and those pathways being anything from hormonal

  • proper hormonal function to proper digestion. Food today is loaded with

  • pollutants and it's so important to be able to identify the different

  • pollutants that are in the different foods and which foods you should always

  • stay away from. So let's go ahead and dive into which foods you need to stay

  • away from and which chemicals to look for in order to make sure that you are

  • avoiding the endocrine disruptors that are just so prevalent in today's food

  • supply. Number one on our list is going to be soy. Whenever possible stay away

  • from soy and the reason for that is because 90 plus percent of soy is GMO.

  • The other reason that you really want to stay away from soy is because it's

  • what's known as a phytoestrogen. It mimics estrogen in our body and it can

  • lead to estrogen dominance. Now many different poor quality products on the

  • market have soy but even some that are perceived to be high quality products

  • contain soy as well. So we need to make sure that we're staying away from

  • nutritional supplements and in different food products that are high in soy and

  • if you have little ones at home you need to make sure that you're checking the

  • baby formulas because a major ingredient in most baby formulas is in fact soy. The

  • only time soy is acceptable is when it's organic and fermented. So, unless you're

  • consuming organic fermented soy don't consume soy at all. The next thing that

  • we need to talk about is vegetable oil. The reason that you need to stay away

  • from vegetable oil is because it's made from all GMO crops. So things such as

  • corn soy and canola and when these different crops are GMO not only do they

  • have some issues we'll talk about in a second here but you know vegetable oils

  • consider to be a bad oil and when you're consuming these different bad

  • fats what they're doing is they're actually attaching to our cell membrane,

  • they're getting into our nervous system, and they're becoming part of self

  • and that's when you start to have a bunch of dysfunctions. So you need to

  • make sure that you're sticking to high quality fats such as coconut oil or

  • olive oil. So the third topic on our list of endocrine disrupting chemicals in

  • foods to avoid is going to be GMOs and the reason that you want to stay away

  • from GMOs is because it's an altered it's it's a crop that has an altered

  • state from the way that it was originally designed to be. So what

  • they're doing is they're taking things such as pesticides and viruses and are

  • actually lacing it right into the DNA of the different crops out there. Corn is a

  • major one that has this issue. Wheat is another major one that has this issue.

  • This is why so many people are having sensitivities to gluten today and

  • having problems eating wheat and having reactions to corn. So we need to make

  • sure that we're staying away from these different GMO crops. So whenever you go

  • to buy either fruits or vegetables make sure you're staying away from the GMOs,

  • okay. The other thing that we need to talk about when we're having this

  • discussion of eating fruits and vegetables is to make sure that you're

  • staying away from foods that are sprayed with the different pesticides. There's

  • one out there called organophosphate pesticide. These these different

  • pesticides are actually designed to destroy the nervous system of bugs and

  • that's ultimately why we get these beautiful crops at the store. I

  • mean yes they look beautiful but if they're toxic then they aren't gonna do

  • us a whole lot of good and if they are going in and destroying and killing the

  • bug by destroying their nervous system then it's gonna have an effect on us. As

  • a matter of fact when some of these different pesticides were brought into

  • other countries around the world just small tribes that were actually,

  • they were just using regular natural farming methods and they brought some of

  • these pesticides in and what happened is their neurological disorders not only in

  • their young but also their elderly just increased and skyrocketed so we want to

  • make sure that when we're buying fruits and vegetables we're making sure that

  • we're either buying them from a source that we can trust or buying them organic

  • because we do not want pesticides and chemicals on the food that we're eating.

  • The next big food that you need to stay away from is conventional dairy. Because

  • the conventional dairy that you're buying from the grocery store is loaded

  • with all kinds of different toxins. Matter of fact there was a study done where

  • they found over 22 different chemicals in conventional dairy milk. So you need

  • to make sure that you're sticking to the grass-fed dairy with pasture raised cows

  • in order to avoid things such as growth hormones, antibiotics, steroids, and

  • all the things that were given to these different cows over the years in order

  • to make them produce a huge amount of milk because when they're given to the

  • animal that's actually producing the product that you're consuming you are

  • gonna consume those different chemicals as well. The last food that we're gonna

  • talk about today is gonna be artificial sweeteners. You need to really make sure

  • you're watching those artificial sweeteners. They're in many foods today and

  • they're also in a lot of sodas and most people think that they're doing

  • themselves a huge favor by consuming the artificial sweeteners because it says

  • zero calories. As a matter of fact, it's causing so many neurological disorders,

  • disrupting brain function but it also is disrupting hormones and as well in a

  • process called pregnenolone steal where it goes and it alters the conversion of

  • cholesterol to hormones. So make sure you're staying away from artificial

  • sweeteners and as a matter of fact make sure you're staying away from sugar as

  • well because what we're finding and there's so much science coming out that

  • sugar is absolutely just destroying the human body and causing a complete

  • degeneration not only of our nervous system but our musculoskeletal system so

  • you need to really avoid the sugar as much as possible. Now the last thing

  • we're going to talk about is gonna be water. Now I understand water is not a

  • food however it's something that people are consuming every day that is loaded

  • with toxins. It always surprises me how many people go to the faucet or go to

  • the tap with no concern of whether or not the water has chemicals in it or how

  • often you go to a restaurant they just serve you plain old tap water even nice

  • restaurants right? And so when we look at the water, in many cases it has

  • arsenic in it, it has lead in it, it has a fluoride in it and chlorine in it so

  • we need to make sure that we're good drinking good, pure water. All these

  • different chemicals that I just mentioned are neurotoxins and they will

  • affect our body. You know as a matter of fact in the different fishing

  • communities what they found is that some of these different fish not only do they

  • have many of these items these chemicals I had already mentioned

  • but they finding that they have pharmaceuticals in them. They're finding

  • fish with Ritalin in them. They're finding fish with estrogen dominance in

  • them due to so many women taking birth control. So make sure that you're getting

  • good clean water and make sure that you are getting the water

  • tested in your home so that you're not getting all these impurities. I hope you

  • enjoyed this information and that it really gave you a lot of knowledge in

  • order to make sure that you are staying healthy and not eating things and

  • consuming products that are disrupting your endocrine system. Don't forget to

  • give this video a thumbs up and also subscribe to my channel and if you have

  • any questions as always make sure you drop them below in the comments section.

  • Thank you and make it a great day.
