Here's 6 big ones you'll want to be aware of, and you'll want to eliminate...
Actually before I begin, here's some potential effects of EDs that you should be aware of:
- Oxidative stress

Let's try to reduce this garbage:
1. Pesticides
(These will alter your thyroid hormone levels, commonly found in fruits - make sure you wash them properly)
2. Phytoestrogens
(As you may have guessed, these stimulate your estrogen receptors. Just make sure you LIMIT your soy intake.)

5. BHA & BHT
(Chewing gum. Turns out to be estrogenic, and carcinogenic. Not a good idea, according to several studies.)
