You assume that if a product is on the shelf, it’s been tested for safety. Unfortunately, that is not the case.

In this eye-opening clip from the Thrive on Plants Podcast, Dr. Aly Cohen reveals the shocking truth about the American regulatory system. Did you know that the vast majority of the 95,000+ synthetic chemicals in our environment were created after World War II? From food packaging to building materials, our bodies are facing an onslaught of toxins that human evolution never prepared us for—and the CDC has the data to prove it.

But it’s not all bad news. Dr. Cohen explains why you don’t need to be rich to eat clean. She breaks down the power of the USDA Organic label and shares a simple, cheap "kitchen hack" using baking soda to remove pesticides from your produce.

In this video, we cover:

The Safety Illusion: Why the FDA and EPA aren't testing most chemicals.

The WWII Explosion: How military technology became everyday toxins (BPA, plastics).

Body Burden: What the CDC found in human blood, urine, and breast milk.

The Solution: Why USDA Organic is the only label that matters.

The "Baking Soda Hack": How to clean non-organic fruit for pennies.

Don't panic—just get smart. Small changes make a massive difference.
