Darin Olien: Can We Ever Escape the Grip of Fatal Conveniences? A Deep Dive into Sustainable Living
Did you know that women are exposed to around 168 chemicals a day from using beauty products? From deodorant, to moisturizers, to perfume. The things we’re using to feel and look good on the outside, are doing us the most harm on the inside. And if you’re not filtering your water, chances are you’re drinking PFOS (a derivative of Teflon), amongst other things. It’s scary! But there are solutions, and in this episode of BioHacking Bestie I’m joined by Darin Olien as we discuss how to break free from the grip of fatal conveniences of modern life. We explore the unsettling presence of microplastics in our daily lives, and the challenges in the food and supplement industry, including the issues with untested products. Also, how "imperfect solutions" are a stepping stone towards better practices, the hope we have with incredible advancements in technology, and the power of education and conversation. Darin Olien is the renowned Superfood Hunder on a lifelong quest to uncover hidden dangers in our everyday lives. He’s the co-host of the Emmy™ Award Winning, #1 Netflix docu-series, “Down to Earth” with Zac Efron, author of the book “Fatal Conveniences” and host of top rated podcast, “The Darin Olien Show”.
