The Top 10 Toxins that Are Wreaking Havoc on Your Health and How to Protect You and Your Family from Hidden Toxins in the Home with Dr. Aly Cohen

  • Resumen

  • This episode is brought to you by Momentous, Cozy Earth, and Lumebox. Toxins hidden in everyday products can quietly increase our risk of chronic diseases, including cancer. These harmful chemicals aren’t just found in what we put on our skin—they’re also in the air we breathe and the water we drink. Understanding where these toxins hide and how they impact our health empowers us to make smarter choices, reduce our exposure, and protect both our well-being and that of our families. Today’s guest shares how simple, practical switches can help us detoxify our lives and take back control of our health. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Dr. Aly Cohen to unpack some of the most toxic offenders hiding in our everyday lives. Using a tier-ranking system, Dr. Cohen breaks down where everyday household items—like cookware, cleaning products, Tupperware, and candles—rank compared to other major exposures, such as poor air quality and tap water. She also shares her Four A’s Framework—a simple, practical tool to help identify toxins without feeling overwhelmed or paralyzed when making safer choices. Plus, Dr. Cohen offers actionable tips to support the body’s natural detoxification pathways through everyday lifestyle habits, nutrition, and targeted supplements. Dr. Cohen is a board-certified physician specializing in rheumatology and integrative medicine, as well as an environmental health expert based in Princeton, New Jersey. Her new book, DETOXIFY: The Everyday Toxins Harming Your Immune System and How to Defend Against Them, connects the dots between everyday chemical exposures and the rising epidemic of immune and autoimmune disorders and what we can all do about it.
