Shopping for health products proves challenging

Studies continue to find that contaminants are being found in a wide range of products, including food, consumer goods, and even personal care products. For example, a study published in the journal of Environmental Science and Technology found that microplastics (plastic particles smaller than 5mm) were present in 93% of bottled water tested.

Other research has found that toxic chemicals such as phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA) are commonly found in food packaging and personal care products. These findings highlight the challenges of finding truly environmentally-friendly products and the need for more stringent regulations and oversight to ensure that these contaminants are not present in consumer goods.

It has been described as the organ that heavily influences a person’s mood even more than the brain – Your stomach.

Scientist have found that the gut behaves like a second brain to the body. So how does the brain impact your gut and mood?

Clayton Thomas, CEO & Founder of The ROOT Brands explains his thoughts as to how the brain can have an impact on your gut, which scientists call the “gut/brain axis connection”.

Harvard Medical School recently found that a person’s stomach or intestinal distress can be a cause of anxiety, stress or even depression. Other studies show people with mood disorders have a gut microbiome. Research has also shown that 50 percent of all dopamine and roughly 95 percent of all serotonin are produced in a person’s gut and both of these play a crucial role in a person’s mood.
