I really eliminated fragrance because it was something that didn't really bring a lot of joy to my life to begin with.

And also I felt like my lung health got better.

I have asthma and I felt better after eliminating that.

But also there's a lot of data that shows that there can be endocrine disrupting chemicals, volatile compounds in any fragrance.

And so that's something that you can think about as you think about cleaning supplies.

You know, like the plug-ins that people use, the Christmas tree air fresheners, like anything that you can eliminate that's not really necessary, but you're not going to be able to completely rid your home of toxins.

And I think you really just have to be balanced in your approach.

So supplements feel like the Wild West, right?

And I think that too much is never a good thing.

I think there is this misconception for people that it's natural.

This is something that's not going to be dangerous.

It doesn't have a medicinal property to it.

And that's not true.

Supplements are vastly unregulated.

And so when you compare it to some medications we might prescribe, I mean, those have undergone rigorous trials, right?

So you don't always know what you're getting and you don't always know about the purity and other additive compounds, heavy metals and other things that could be in it.

And when you think about the average patient going through a fertility journey,

often they have a countertop in their bathroom littered with supplements.

And you know what that tells you?

That they're grasping for control.
