Dr. Shanna Swan on How Plastics in Food are Affecting Our Hormone Levels

Dr. Shanna Swan is an environmental epidemiologist and leading researcher on how synthetic chemicals, particularly those found in plastics and food packaging, are disrupting human hormone levels and reproductive health. Her groundbreaking work examining the widespread exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals like BPA and phthalates has made her one of the most important voices in understanding the hidden health crisis affecting modern society. Joe brought her on to explore the science behind these chemical exposures and their alarming effects on human biology, psychology, and our environment. Her research reveals how everyday products we consider safe are quietly altering our hormonal systems with potentially serious consequences for current and future generations.
