🎙️ Episode 22: Never Enough — The Toxin Trap From BPA to Brain Fog: How Toxins Hijack Your Energy, Hormones, and Immunity

🔍 In this episode, we unpack:

• Why “healthy switching” (from milk to soy to almond to oat… or tap to bottled to filtered water) never feels like enough

• How toxins overwhelm the body and get stored in cells, bones, organs—even the brain

• The role of epigenetics in helping us influence health outcomes in a toxic world

• Our stewardship and responsibility where do we learn this from… see 1 Corinthians 3:16-17
  

• Common toxins you need to know: BPA, cadmium, lead, and flame retardants (and why flame retardants can block thyroid function)
  

• Nutrient depletion from toxins: how they interfere with B vitamins, selenium, and folate—affecting energy, fertility, and repair
  

• Detox genetics: MTHFR vs. GST–GPX pathways, and why some people are the “early warning systems” for chemical exposure
  

• Case study: Lorraine—severe brain fog linked to mercury levels 10x higher than normal!
  

• Why autoimmune is not a true diagnosis but a sign of a body under toxic assault
  

• Practical steps to reduce household toxins—and how to access our free Toxic Toolkit at FireYourDr.com
  

📖 Spiritual Reflection:

“The land cannot be sold permanently because the land is mine and you reside in my land as foreigners and strangers. Throughout the land that you hold, you must provide for the redemption of the land.” — Leviticus 25:23–24 (NIV)

God calls us to stewardship—not just of our own bodies, but of the land He created. Detox is both a physical act and a spiritual responsibility: clearing what contaminates so redemption and healing can take place.
