#26: Environmental Impacts on the Body with Dr. Shruthi Mahalingaiah

Hello Uterus

When your self care is slowly posioning you, you know companies are pushing profits over our bodies. In this week’s uterus in the news, straightening hair treatments for women of color are being flagged under our radar along with the amount of chemicals found in nail salons. Self care and beauty is something we shouldn’t have to sacrifice because of greedy companies. That’s why here at Hello Uterus we are still giving away beauty boxes from Beauty Heroes! All the beauty products you need but guaranteed clean and free from hormone-disrupting chemicals! To learn how to enter, visit our instagram!

This week’s guest is a dream doctor who understands how these chemicals affect our bodies. A physician researcher with an extensive learning background and key research areas ranging from ovulation and menstruation health to the environmental impacts on the female at birth body. Dr. Shruthi Mahalingaiah joins us for an eye-opening conversation over the link between chemical exposure and our bodies, hormones, and how to stay in tune with your body for your mind and health.

Lastly, we end on a high note! There’s less than a 2% chance of getting struck by lightning and an even smaller chance of having this miracle!

Thanks for listening, learning, and being you. And join us back here every Tuesday for all things uterus, in service to you, uterinekind.
