CRICKET LEGACY: For over 4 decades, 
MESSY = GLORIOUS: If you love a wild garden, care about butterflies and bees, and despise the societally popular form of “lawn care” that rips up and mows everything down to a stump before it barely has a chance to grow, 
NEW WATER DISCOVERY: There’s “freshened” (low salt) water trapped beneath the ocean floor in the Atlantic, scientists say. Likely 10k+ years old, it could provide some clues about past ice ages, climate differences, and even future freshwater sources.

In our previous clinical insights article on the cellular causes of prostate cancer, I discussed why normal prostate cells become cancerous and pointed toward environmental contributors as one of the culprits. There are a group of environmental toxins referred to as endocrine disruptors linked to prostate cancer development and progression. Today, I'd like to discuss where endocrine disruptors are most prevalent, how to reduce exposure, and how to eliminate them from your body when exposure is inevitable.
What are Endocrine Disruptors?
Endocrine disruptors are exogenous substances that interfere with the normal functioning of your body's natural hormones, acting as xenoestrogens (synthetic estrogen) or antiandrogens. Essentially, we are exposed to very low concentrations of multiple endocrine disruptors. The most known are pesticides, insecticides, plastic bottles (polycarbonate, bisphenol), lubricants (which may contain Nonylphenol), plastics, and food packaging.
Bisphenol A
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a common endocrine disruptor and a key ingredient in modern plastics found in the inner lining of canned foods. It may act as a xenoestrogen mimicking estrogen and attach to estrogen receptors by fooling the body into thinking it is endogenous. This process interferes with the normal functioning of hormones and may lead to prostate cancer in men. One study in prostate cancer cells showed that even a low amount of BPA initiated the proliferation of cancer cells (Wetherill et al. 2002). BPA is found in plastics and canned goods. So, while tomato sauce contains lycopene which is good for fighting prostate cancer, if it comes from a canned source with BPA, the BPA in the sauce may offset its benefits. Also, when plastic bottles, like plastic water bottles, are washed or exposed to heat, BPA chemicals leach into the water, making their way into the body from the contaminated water.
How can you minimize BPA exposure?
Decrease exposure. For example, plastic bottles have a recycling code at the bottom of the bottle that looks like a triangular arrow around a number. Avoid these numbers: 3, 6, and 7. Plastics with these numbers contain BPA.
Here are other tips to minimize Bisphenol A exposure.
My Closing Thoughts
Environmental toxins, like BPA, are unavoidable. They are in the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe, and many household items we use daily. Largely invisible, most go undetected and are harmless if exposure is limited. However, we can reduce exposure if you can detect where they are hidden. Lastly, nutritional and herbal support like Milk Thistle, glutathione, and broccoli extract helps the liver to rid the body of environmental toxins you are exposed to. Toxins that the liver (and kidneys) cannot properly filter out of your body can sometimes be expelled through sweating from rigorous physical exercise or saunas. At XY Wellness, we understand the importance of detoxification from environmental exposure, which is why physical exercise is one of the pillars of our program.
Additionally, our carefully formulated nutraceutical supplement in GDtoxSel has many nutrients to support proper liver detoxification. You'll be happy to know GDtoxSel is in Regimen 01, Regimen 02, and Regimen 03.

Here are other tips to minimize Bisphenol A exposure.
- Avoid canned foods. They often lack nutritional value and can have BPA leach into the food. Instead, use a glass container to store food. Note: glass containers do not contain BPA chemicals, but tops used to close glass containers do.
- Avoid purchasing canned salmon or canned sardines in vinyl-lined cans containing BPA. Instead, we recommend contacting the manufacturers of these products to find out which ones use BPA-free cans. If you cannot find BPA-free cans, you may consider purchasing the fish in another (non-canned) form.
- Don't microwave food or drinks in plastic containers—even if they claim to be "microwave safe." Heat can break down plastics and release chemical additives into food and beverages. In addition, microwaves heat unevenly, creating hot spots where the plastic is more likely to break down.
- Don't use plastic containers for hot liquids—only cool liquids, if at all.
- Don’t leave water in plastic bottles in your car on hot summer days.
- Bring your own mug for coffee to the office and your coffee shop and use that instead.
- Bring drinking water from home in glass water bottles instead of buying bottled water.
- Store foods in the freezer in glass mason jars, not plastic bags.
- Use stainless steel or high-heat-resistant nylon for utensils in lieu of plastics.

Eat This Plant Fat to Live Longer
By Chauncey Crandall, M.D.
There are three types of omega-3 fatty acids: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). EPA and DHA are primarily found in fish while ALA fats are found in foods including vegetable oils, nuts, and leafy greens.
A study published in the British Medical Journal found that ALA was linked to a significantly lower risk of death from all causes.
Special: Top Cardiologist Formulated This for His Own Heart
Researchers analyzed 41 studies that examined the link between consuming plant-based ALA fats and lifespan, including the risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
“ALA fats are precursors to eicosanoids or signaling molecules which regulate many body functions such as gene expression, blood clotting, and inhibiting inflammation,” said Melissa Rifkin, a registered dietitian.
High levels of inflammation over prolonged periods can lead to life-threatening diseases. ALA is also thought to decrease the risk of heart disease by helping to maintain normal heart rhythm and may also reduce the risk of blood clots.
There is also some evidence that it can help regulate high blood pressure.

| By popular request, Jimi! Last year, I mentioned I was giving a cancer workshop at the Appleseed conference, where I laid out everything (well, maybe not EVERYTHING, but all the most important things at least)… as I see it, at least, there is something to know when it comes to how to heal or prevent cancer, based on my own experience going through it with Ryder… and the over a decade I’ve spent since hosting weekly live Q&A’s with the best integrative cancer doctors, religiously going to every holistic cancer conference in the country, and being on the continual hunt for the BEST healing products through our weekly webinars… and the overwhelming question I got in response to mentioning that workshop was “will you be recording it??” The answer is that I meant to, but the last-minute packing of all the camera gear didn’t work out.  So I vowed to recreate it on one of our webinars someday soon, and this is the week! If you’ve been reading these emails about this and that for a while and find yourself wondering “what’s Ryan’s WHOLE strategy for cancer?” then this is the webinar to attend! You can sign up for my MUST HAVES For Every Successful Cancer Journey: Foundations Through Advanced Strategies presentation here!We’ll be covering: |

Hi Jimi, For most of medical history, the appendix had a reputation. And not a good one. Vestigial. Evolutionary leftovers. The organ that exists only to cause trouble. Doctors removed it without a second thought. Scientists ignored it. Textbooks barely mentioned it, except as a cautionary tale about what happens when it gets inflamed. And then researchers started asking a different question. Not "what goes wrong with the appendix?" But "what is it actually doing?" The answer has quietly rewritten everything. Because it turns out the appendix isn't useless at all. Researchers now describe it as a microbial "safe house" — a protected sanctuary where your most beneficial gut bacteria can ride out the disruptions that devastate the rest of your gut. A bout of gastroenteritis. A course of antibiotics. A round of chemotherapy. When those things happen, your microbiome takes a serious hit. Diversity crashes. Beneficial species disappear. But the appendix holds on. And when the storm passes, it replenishes — releasing stored bacterial populations back into the gut like a seed bank reseeding a landscape after a disaster. It's been quietly doing this your entire life. Without any recognition. Without anyone even asking the question. And it goes even further than that. The appendix is also immunologically active — packed with lymphoid tissue that helps the body distinguish between beneficial and harmful bacteria. And specific species living in the appendix are involved in the production of neurotransmitters like GABA, serotonin, and dopamine. Your appendix may have been quietly influencing your brain chemistry this whole time. Which makes the long-term consequences of removing it — something we've been doing routinely for over a century — worth paying serious attention to. Studies have found lower gut microbial diversity in people who've had appendectomies, along with associations with more severe C. difficile infection, elevated colorectal cancer risk, and more than double the risk of Crohn's disease. I've written the full story in a new blog — the science, the consequences, the gut-brain connection, and what you can do to protect your appendix microbiome. |
If you've already had yours removed — don't panic. The blog covers that too. |
