    52. Echo Clean™, How to Avoid “Forever Chemicals” In Your Home with Gary Brecka

    enApril 11, 2024

    Podcast Summary

    • Reducing the use of forever chemicals in daily lifeTransition to a more natural lifestyle by being mindful of products and seeking out chemical-free alternatives to reduce potential health risks.

      It's important to reduce the use of forever chemicals in our daily lives due to their potential negative health effects. These chemicals, which are found in various consumer products and household cleaning items, can lead to hormonal imbalances, increased risk of chronic diseases, and other health issues. By transitioning to a more natural and chemical-free lifestyle, we can create a cleaner and safer living space for ourselves and our families. This involves being mindful of the products we use and seeking out more natural alternatives. Building an invisible fence around ourselves includes not just filtering the air we breathe, water we drink, and food we eat, but also the products we use to clean our homes. Our homes should be our sanctuaries, and reducing the amount of chemicals and synthetics in them can help make them truly clean and pure living spaces.

    • Understanding the Health Risks of Forever ChemicalsForever chemicals, or PFASs, found in consumer products can accumulate in the body and lead to hormonal imbalances, chronic diseases, and even cancer. Natural alternatives like hypochlorous acid can help combat these risks.

      Forever chemicals, or PFASs, found in various consumer products including washing machines, non-stick pans, waterproof clothing, and household cleaning products, pose significant health risks. These chemicals, which can accumulate in the body for extended periods, have been linked to hormonal imbalances, increased risk of chronic diseases, and even cancer. The Environmental Protection Agency and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention have raised concerns about their persistence in the environment and our bodies. A natural alternative to combat these chemicals is hypochlorous acid, a substance naturally produced by our white blood cells to fight pathogens. It's important to be aware of the risks of forever chemicals and seek out alternatives, especially in our homes where we spend the most time.

    • Effective and Safe Non-Toxic Cleaning SolutionHypochlorous acid, a naturally occurring substance in our immune system, effectively disinfects a broad spectrum of microorganisms while remaining gentle and safe for human use. It's recognized as safe by the FDA and leaves no toxic residues.

      Hypochlorous acid, a naturally occurring substance in our immune system, offers an effective and safe solution for non-toxic cleaning in our homes. Its effectiveness against a broad spectrum of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, rivals that of harsh chemicals, yet it remains gentle and safe for human use. Studies have highlighted its potential uses in healthcare and homes, and its rapid action and lack of resistance make it a superior choice for disinfection. The Food and Drug Administration recognizes it as safe for various uses, and unlike traditional cleaning products, it breaks down into a simple saline solution, leaving no toxic residues. Empower yourself by being aware of the ingredients in your cleaning supplies, air fresheners, laundry detergents, and personal care items. Replacing these with natural alternatives like vinegar, baking soda, and hypochlorous acid based cleaners will offer a potent, safe solution for a wide range of cleaning needs.

    • Redefining Clean: Effective, Sustainable, and SafeAdopt a holistic approach to consumption, opt for eco-friendly products, and use DIY solutions for a cleaner, healthier home while reducing environmental impact.

      It's possible to maintain a clean home without contributing to the toxic legacy of harsh chemicals. By adopting a holistic approach to consumption, opting for products with minimal recyclable packaging, and embracing DIY solutions using everyday ingredients, we can protect our health and contribute to more sustainable living. The Echo Go Clean is an innovative solution for effective cleaning using hypochlorous acid, a substance naturally produced by our bodies to fight germs. This cleaner is not only 80% more effective than bleach but also safe for families, pets, and the planet. The Echo Go Clean is grounded in solid science, producing a cleanliness standard approved by the USDA for organic crops and awarded the Mayo Clinic for being 100% allergen-free. This isn't just about cleaning; it's about redefining what clean means in a safe, sustainable, and cost-effective way.

    • Investing in a chemical-free lifestyle for health and the environmentChoose reusable, sustainable cleaning solutions like Echo Go Clean for a healthier home and planet. Support companies committed to a chemical-free future.

      Adopting a chemical-free lifestyle is an investment in both our health and the environment. The Echo Go Clean is an example of a sustainable and reusable solution for cleaning, using only water and salt to create hypochloric acid. This choice reflects a commitment to a future where homes are safe havens, not chemical warehouses. By supporting companies and innovations that align with this vision, we can make a positive impact on our health and the planet. The switch to a cleaner, safer lifestyle is not just a personal choice, but a collective future. Let's make a pact to choose products that are kind to our bodies and the environment, and give a voice to those leading the way towards a chemical-free future. Clean living is a mutual goal worth striving for.

    TPP 036: November Reflection

    TPP 036: November Reflection

    Living sustainably is a vague concept. What does 'sustianbly' even mean, right? We agree that the term can be meaningless, at it's become more of a buzzword in recent years. But let us tell you what we mean by 'sustainably'; it simply means living with intention and making conscious choices in all aspects of your life. From food, to fashion. From beauty products to transportation.

    Going vegan was an individual journey for both of us, driven by different motivators but ultimately it made both of us more conscious about a lot of other aspects of our lives. Like the trash we produce, the clothes we buy and the products we put on our body. We started realizing that a lot of things, aren't made under great conditions, nor do they contain ingredients we want to absorb nor are they disposed of in the right way.

    In this month's episode we share a couple aspects of our lives with you and explain how we live more sustainably when it comes to transportation, in home habits, grocery shopping, composting and more. We also chat about some of our favorite DIY projects.

    By no means do we believe that it's about being perfect or that we are even close to it. But we do believe that opening your mind to all areas of your life where you produce waste or purchase things, is important because it makes you a more mindful consumer which ultimately benefits you, other humans and the planet in general. We can all make a difference, because our individual efforts compound and grow exponentially. We can all contribute to a more sustainable future.

    Mama P Is On A MIssion to Eliminate Millions of Plastic Toothbrushes

    Mama P founder, Suz Hernandez, got sick of plastic waste all around us and decided to do something about it. She's on a mission to eliminate over 1 billion disposable plastic toothbrushes in one year. Listen to how Suz spats out toothbush stats like you've never heard and how it's on businesses to better educate consumers. She previously worked at the athletic company, Nike, and used her skills to create a brand that offers better designed eco-friendly and ergonomic products, such as authentically sustainable bamboo toothbrushes. Each toothbrush tip is uniquely colored and gives to a specific cause, such as ocean protection, education, bee hives, and more.

    SUFB 180: Arbonne For The Ocean

    SUFB 180: Arbonne For The Ocean

    I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you something about why I started and continue to pursue Speak Up For Blue.

    In 2010, the BP oil spill had devastated the Gulf of Mexico and anything in the path of the oil and the chemical used to disperse the oil. A number of marine biologists, advocates and conservationists flew down to the Gulf to show people what was happening. They dispersed the images through their social media networks like Facebook and Twitter. I saw how people reacted to the stories and I knew it made a difference.

    That summer I went to 2 conferences: 1 in the US and 1 in Canada. Both conferences were about how we can better protect the Ocean and both conferences concluded that scientists, advocates, conservationists and anyone else who gave a damn about the Ocean needed to do a better job at reaching the public because it was the public who can cause change. I started Speak Up For Blue 6 months later.

    Speak Up For Blue is based on changing the way we live to protect the Ocean. All of the things we do to harm the Ocean can be prevented by doing small changes to our lifestyle. It will take many people to effect change as they change their lifestyles, but I feel that over the past 5 years, people are moving towards changing their lifestyles by first changing things at home such as using less plastic, eating better and using healthier products that are better for themselves and the Environment, including the Ocean.

    Over the past 5 years, I have been busting my butt to educate you on what is happening in the Ocean and how we can change to implement solutions. During that time, I have been doing research on offering you a line(s) of products that would help you in that process. It wasn't easy, but I finally found a line of health and wellness products that is good for you and the Ocean. The line of products is called Arbonne.

    Arbonne is a European-based company which sells products in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the UK and Poland with plans to expand in more countries. I decided that Speak Up For Blue will become an independent consultant for Arbonne because I feel that this community is ready for these products that are good for your health and the environment.

    I want you to know that I would not be offering this product to you without also becoming a customer and trying out most of the things that I want to offer this community. I have been using many of the nutrition products for the last few weeks and some of the men's line (shaving cream and lotions). I wanted to ensure that I wanted this products for myself and my family.

    My point of selling Arbonne products is not to just generate revenue, but to generate revenue for ocean conservation. 10% of the revenue that I generate will go towards supporting Ocean Conservation and I promise to be absolutely transparent about it. The other portion of the revenue will go back into Speak Up For Blue to continue to support the Ocean Conservation Community through raising awareness of what is happening in the Ocean via our podcast, You Tube channel and other programs that will are bring forth in the near future.

    Arbonne is providing Speak Up For Blue with the fuel to protect the Ocean. You, through your purchases, are providing the fuel to support Ocean Conservation AND you are getting healthy products that are good for you, your family and the ocean!

    I want to be open and transparent with this process so I would like to answer any and all of your questions about Arbonne and the future of Speak Up For Blue. Please feel free to ask your question(s) in the comments below.

    I am proud to present a line of products that are not only good for you and the environment AND will be the fuel to help me further protect the Ocean!
