I'm doing more and more toxin testing. Seeing heavy contamination from chemicals used for plastics as well as pesticides.
Consider testing if you are 1) having multiple symptoms and not responding well to any treatment
2) if you have a history of RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis). Evidence that GI dysfunction is part of this puzzle, so it makes perfect sense that toxins are involved as well.

No doubt. Ultra processed foods with additives are killing us.
The culprits are primarily gums and artificial sweeteners .

“Two out of the five identified food additive mixtures were associated with higher type 2 diabetes incidence: the first mixture included modified starches, pectin, guar gum, carrageenan, polyphosphates, potassium sorbates, curcumin, and xanthan gum (hazard ratio (HR)per an increment of 1SD of the NMF mixture score = 1.08 [1.02, 1.15], p = 0.006), and the other mixture included citric acid, sodium citrates, phosphoric acid, sulphite ammonia caramel, acesulfame-K, aspartame, sucralose, arabic gum, malic acid, carnauba wax, paprika extract, anthocyanins, guar gum, and pectin (HR = 1.13 [1.08,1.18], p < 0.001).”

Two widely consumed food additive mixtures may increase type 2 diabetes incidence, according to a study published online.

87% of women did not seek help for menopausal symptoms.
Let that sink in….
There are so many women out there who probably have no idea that some of their symptoms, if not all, are totally treatable.
Yet many may go their P*P or GYN and are given drugs for the symptoms, not the root cause.

About 90% of women who reported moderate, severe, or very severe vasomotor symptoms did not seek medical care for symptoms.
