1 in 6 Canadian couples are struggling to conceive. And the conversation almost never includes the chemicals quietly disrupting hormones in the background.

Your shampoo. Your to-go coffee. Your leggings. The receipt from the grocery store.

These endocrine disruptors are linked to fertility challenges in both women and men, and most people have no idea how much exposure they’re getting every day.

On Tuesday, April 14 at 5pm, Dr. Leizl Yance ND is breaking it down: what to look for and where to start reducing your exposure as you prepare for conception.

Your shampoo might be messing with your hormones.

Endocrine disruptors are chemicals found in everyday products that interfere with how your hormones function.

They mimic estrogen. Block thyroid signaling. Slow your metabolism. Disrupt your cycle. Make weight loss harder.

Most of us are exposed to dozens of these chemicals daily without realizing it.

This is exactly why the 2026 KW Cleanse is built around reducing your exposure to endocrine disruptors.

10 days. Whole foods. Cleanse Supplements. Practitioner-led webinars with .nd, and . Plus 20% off class packs at 🙌

Waking up tired, starting your week off dreading all the things you have to do, justifying it with your busy lifestyle, chasing success, raising children, etc etc…

This is not the quality of life you thought you’d have. It’s not the price you pay for living for your dreams.

Exhaustion that sleep doesn’t fix is not normal. It’s a signal from your body that something is being missed. It has a root cause. Cortisol, thyroid dysfunction, mitochondrial damage, imbalanced minerals including iron, circadian impairment, can all contribute to exhaustion and other metabolic conditions.

Ditch the bandaid approaches you’ve been trying and get to the root of the issue - after all, the first wealth is health (Ralph Waldo Emerson).
