I was watching "Toxins" in Skool and realized that I eat a lot of the most toxic fruits and vegetables (grapes, strawberries, apples, etc.) and I don't wash them before I eat them! Yikes! Dr. Berry - do you have any recommendations on how to properly wash fruits and vegetables?

When we talk about toxins, people often imagine dramatic cleanses or extreme detox programs. But the truth is… most toxic load comes from everyday, repeat exposure — not one big thing. The good news? You don’t need to change everything at once. A few thoughtful swaps can meaningfully reduce what your body has to process every single day. Here are some simple, realistic ways to lower toxic burden without turning your life upside down: 🧺 Laundry & Cleaning - Switch laundry detergent to biodegradable, fragrance-free, or plant-based options - Avoid fabric softeners and dryer sheets (they’re one of the biggest hidden offenders) - Dish soap matters — choose simple, non-toxic formulas or make your own 💡 If it touches your skin or your dishes daily, it matters. 🧴 Skin, Hair & Makeup - Your skin absorbs what you put on it — think less, not more - Choose products with short ingredient lists - Avoid artificial fragrance when possible - Makeup doesn’t need to be perfect — just cleaner over time 👉 Start with what you use most often: soap, shampoo, lotion, deodorant. 🚿 Water Matters - Filter drinking water if you can - Shower filters help reduce chlorine and chemical exposure through the skin - Cooking with filtered water is an underrated win Your body uses water for detox — quality matters. 👕 What You Wear - Choose cotton or natural fibers when possible - Synthetic fabrics trap heat and chemicals - Breathable clothing supports skin health and natural detox pathways This isn’t about throwing everything out — just being mindful with new purchases. 🫧 Sweat the Way You’re Designed To - Use deodorant instead of antiperspirant - Sweating is not a flaw — it’s a detox pathway - Blocking it forces the body to reroute waste elsewhere Let the body do what it knows how to do. 🥦 Food Choices (Without Perfection) - Buy organic when possible — especially produce with heavy pesticide exposure - Wash all fruits and vegetables well - Focus on whole foods, not packaged “health” foods

I made the mistake of running a bunch of errands today without a plan to eat something healthy. So when it was 2:00 and I still hadn't eaten lunch, the vanilla cupcake sample at Costco got me! I try not to eat gluten or sugar, so my poor body is really feeling sick! I should have planned better!

Does anyone eat pasture eggs AND have a food sensitivity to eggs?
