The Link Between Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals In Plastic, Fertility & Hormone Health With Maritza Worthington, Functional Hormone Practitioner

Did you know that the plastics we use daily could be negatively impacting your hormones, fertility, and pregnancy? In this episode of The Live Lightly Podcast, I sit down with Functional Hormone Practitioner Maritza Worthington to uncover the hidden dangers of common chemicals in plastics and how they disrupt our endocrine system.
We dive deep into hormone-disrupting toxins like phthalates, BPA, and heavy metals, which are found in food packaging, water bottles, personal care products, and even makeup. Maritza explains how these chemicals leach into our food and water, contributing to estrogen dominance, fertility struggles, PCOS, and hormonal imbalances.
Beyond hormones, we discuss how plastics can block nutrient and mineral absorption, leading to deficiencies that impact energy levels, metabolism, and overall health. Maritza shares practical strategies for reducing plastic exposure, from choosing safer food storage options to supporting detoxification through diet and supplements.
If you’re looking to balance your hormones naturally and reduce your exposure to toxic plastics, this episode is packed with science-backed insights and easy swaps to get you started!
