Microplastics are POISONING us—slowly, silently, and PERMANENTLY.

There are TRILLIONS of microplastics everywhere and they’re

the highest they’ve ever been in our bodies—brain, liver, lungs, everywhere.

But don't panic—there are solutions: 🧵 Image
Image
Experts have studied microplastics since the 1960s.

But just in the last 5 years, they’ve been found in the blood, brain, semen & placenta.

They’re in the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the clothes we wear.

Just how small are these invaders? Image
Microplastics range in size from microscope nanoparticles to a few millmeters.

There are 2 types:

Primary: Manufactured particles used in cosmetics, clothing, etc.

Secondary: Particles broken down from larger plastics.

They penetrate us through food, air, water.
How do microplastics invade us?

• Ingestion: Up to 5g of plastic WEEKLY from food and water (exact amount still being studied).
• Inhalation: we breathe up to 22 million particles/year.
• Skin contact: Direct contact with microplastics leads to exposure.

And the bad news?
Also, microplastics can lead to huge health risks.

Studies show dementia patients have higher microplastics in their brains.

Microplastics can wreak havoc on our gut & metabolic health.

They disrupt the function of vital organs and hormones.

These are the damage they cause:
1. Brain: Neuroinflammation and cognitive decline as they breach of blood-brain barrier.

2. Heart: up to 4.5X increased risk of heart attacks & stroke.

3. Lungs: Chronic inflammation, impaired lung function, scarring from synthetic fibers. Image
4. Gut: Increase of harmful bacteria & disrupting digestion.

5. Metabolic health: Interference with cellular metabolism—linked to insulin resistance, obesity, and diabetes.

And the scariest part?

We can’t just REMOVE microplastics once they’re inside us.
If we can’t remove them, directly, how can we avoid microplastics?

1. Reduce plastic use—Avoid plastics in cosmetics, plastic cookware, bottles & single-use plastic.

2. Choose natural fibers—Cotton, linen, wool over synthetics like polyester.

PREVENTION is key. Here’s more👇
3. Drink purified water—High-quality filters trap microplastics from tap water.

4. No plastic in microwaves—Food can absorb tiny particles from heated plastic containers.

5. Get HEPA air purifiers—Captures small particles before you can inhale them.
5. Eat smaller fish—Fresh sardines, herring, oysters & clams consume less microplastics than larger predators.

6. Skip ultra-processed foods—They’re magnets for microplastics from machinery and packaging.

And the BEST thing you can do:
Make sure to load up on probiotics, fiber, and healthy food.

Probiotics from fermented foods like yogurt can reduce the toxicity of plastic chemicals,

While fresh, nutritious, and minimally processed food lessen health risks.

For more exceptional results:
I suggest homemade probiotic yogurt.

It’s WAY more potent than the storebought yogurt & more affordable than probiotic supplements.

I created this yogurt maker, so you can create TRILLIONS of live probiotics to support your gut health & digestion. amazon.com/dp/B0C5S6XVK7?…
Consider detoxification products such as:

• Zeolite and bentonite clay
• Activated charcoal
• NAC and glutathione
And be sure to exercise and hit the sauna to sweat out toxins.

Small changes can have a cumulative impact.
Now that we've covered plastics, are you struggling with

your weight, low energy, pain, or chronic symptoms?

Colon cleansing is the most powerful yet ignored health intervention.

It fixes chronic fatigue, skin problems, and weak immunity.

I've tested this myself, and it does wonders.

Here's how to perform a colon cleanse the right way: 🧵
Your colon (large intestine) can hold SEVERAL POUNDS of toxic waste.

This waste contains toxins you've consumed and serves as a breeding ground for harmful bacteria, viruses, and parasites.

Before starting a cleanse, ask yourself:

How many daily bowel movements do I have?
If it's less than 2, your body is holding onto toxins longer than it should.

Think of your digestive system as a conveyor belt: food in, waste out shortly after.

When that system backs up, everything above it gets compromised.

Your liver is the engine that keeps your body running.

But 90% of people destroy their liver without even knowing it.

Liver damage skyrockets the risk of cancer, diabetes, and chronic diseases.

Want to save it?

Here are 9 foods that can detox and heal your liver naturally: 🧵
Your liver works like a detox factory.

Every day, it processes chemicals, hormones, and heavy metals to keep every system in your body working properly.

But when it gets overloaded, damage builds up—slowly and quietly.

Here’s how that plays out over time…
When liver function declines, so does your health:

• Higher cancer risk
• Blood sugar instability
• Fat around vital organs
• Hormone imbalance
• Chronic fatigue

If you want to maintain good liver health, support it naturally with these foods👇

Your poor bile flow is why you wake up foggy, can't lose weight, and feel like garbage.

I discovered this the hard way when my health crashed at 21.

Fixing my bile flow transformed my health.

Here's exactly how I did it (and how you can do it too):
Bile is a green-yellow fluid that your liver makes 1-1.5 quarts of daily.

It's stored in your gallbladder and released when you eat fats.

Most people think it only helps digest food, but bile is actually a powerful detoxifier and hormone regulator. Image
Bile talks directly to your brain through the vagus nerve.

When bile flow slows down, it messes with the production of neurotransmitters that manage stress and mood.

Suddenly, the gut correlation with anxiety, depression, and brain fog makes sense. Image

Meet Daniel Trevor.

5 years ago, he considered himself “Mr. Healthy.”

Then a severe heart attack nearly ended his life.

Ever since he realized our food supply is KILLING us.

Let’s talk about the “Unholy Trinity” of modern food & how he went from heart attack to 6-pack: Image
Image
Daniel Trevor is a serial entrepreneur, health enthusiast, and researcher.

Years ago, he was fit & lean. No symptoms.

Yet, he almost died.

So he dug into the science & discovered: Foods marketed as “healthy” were slowly killing us.

Here’s what he found:
The 3 silent KILLERS: CARBS, SUGAR, and OIL. Specifically:

• Refined & ultra-processed carbs
• Excessive sugar
• Toxic industrial seed oils

In “Unholy Trinity,” Trevor exposes how these 3 have caused metabolic illnesses.

Let’s break it down 👇 Image

Fire your psychiatrist. They’ve never cured anything.

Want more serotonin?

95% of it isn't produced in your brain. It’s made in your GUT.

Here are 6 ways to stop your gut from sabotaging your mental health: 🧵 Image
Meet your "second brain."

The nervous system in your gut has 500 million neurons & endocrine cells.

It senses nutrients, taste, fiber, microbes, toxins, & mechanical stimuli.

More than digestion, your gut is a critical system linked to your brain.
Your brain isn’t lacking an antidepressant—it’s missing serotonin.

Psychiatric drugs are NOT a cure, they’re a life sentence ( has the full story).

What happens when the gut fails to make serotonin?

The effects go beyond mood. CCHR.org

I've tested hundreds of supplements over 30 years to heal myself.

Most are worthless, but these 15 transformed my health.

At 50, my bloodwork is better than when I was 20.

The evidence-based supplement list that actually works: 🧵 Image
1. MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane)

Hands-down my favourite supplement recommendation for ANYONE.

It boosts oxygen in your cells (disease HATES oxygen).

I take 6-9 grams TWICE daily and my chronic pain vanished.

Even my scar tissue softens noticeably within days. Image
2. Vitamin C

Not just for colds, it's critical for tissue repair & lowering inflammation.

I take several grams of sodium ascorbate daily when fighting infection.

Combined with MSM, it's like giving your muscles an internal bath, washing away years of accumulated toxins.
