620. Convenience is Killing Us

Darin Olien, New York Times bestselling author and co-host with Zac Efron of the hit Netflix series Down to Earth, offers the Almost 30 community invaluable advice on addressing the health of our bodies (and planet!).  In this episode, Darin discusses his new book, Fatal Conveniences, which offers a fresh perspective and achievable, small tweaks that will lead to big, life-enhancing changes. He shares common products (such as cosmetics + sunscreen) and behaviors that are harmful, and provides alternatives that are non-toxic and life-enhancing. Despite such a heavy topic, Darin provides us with HOPE…for the health and wellbeing of the collective, and for our beloved Earth!  We also talk about: What are carcinogens + PFAs Darin’s personal story Toxic products in daily life Fast fashion + the beauty industry The harmful effects of fluoride + sunscreen Easy, healthy changes you can make today Co-hosting “Down to Earth” with Zac Efron Resources:  Book: Fatal Conveniences  IG: @darinolien FB: @DarinOlienOfficial Twitter: @darinolien Website: Darinolien.com 121 Tribe Program Sponsors: DRAM | Visit dramapothecary.com and use code ALMOST30 for 20% off your entire order.
