Hormone Disruptors, Neurotoxins & Your Beauty Routine

Trina Felber, the founder of Primal Life Organics, emphasizes that the beauty industry often conceals the harmful ingredients present in many skincare products. On average, women use about 12 to 15 personal care products daily, exposing themselves to approximately 300 chemicals. Each product may contain 20 to 25 synthetic ingredients, many of which are known to disrupt hormonal balance and contribute to various health issues.

The Impact on Women's Health

The consequences of using these products can be significant. Trina points out that many women experience symptoms such as:

Brain Fog: A common complaint among women who use products laden with hormone disruptors, leading to difficulties in concentration and mental clarity.
Fatigue: Chronic fatigue can stem from the cumulative effect of these toxins, which may interfere with the body's natural energy production and hormonal balance.
Irregular Periods: Hormonal imbalances caused by these chemicals can lead to menstrual irregularities, affecting overall reproductive health.

Root Causes of Aging Skin

Trina identifies some of the root causes of aging skin that the beauty industry often ignores:

Loss of Muscle Mass: As people age, they tend to lose muscle mass in their faces, which can lead to sagging skin. Engaging facial muscles through expression and exercises can help counteract this effect.
Dehydrated Skin: Proper hydration is crucial for maintaining youthful skin. Trina emphasizes the importance of using products that do not contain water as a primary ingredient.
Decreased Blood Flow: Aging can lead to reduced blood circulation, which affects nutrient delivery and detoxification. Activities that stimulate blood flow, such as facial exercises and tools like Gua Sha, can enhance skin health.
Collagen and Elastin Decline: Collagen and elastin are essential for skin elasticity and firmness. Trina notes that while these naturally decline with age, certain oils and treatments can help boost their production.
