Hidden Toxins Sabotaging Your Fertility - with Deidre Bloomquist

In this enlightening episode of Health Youniversity, Dr. Susan explores the hidden world of toxic exposures with Deidre Bloomquist, a functional nutritionist and author of "Toxic Infertility: Detoxification Solutions to Improve Natural Fertility." 

Together, they uncover how environmental toxins create barriers to conception and impact overall health. From microplastics found in ovarian follicular fluid to heavy metals crossing the placental barrier, Deidre explains why detoxification before conception is critical for both successful fertility outcomes and the health of future generations. 

Learn about personalized detox protocols, proper testing methods, and practical steps anyone can take to reduce their toxic burden and optimize fertility health—regardless of where they are in their conception journey.
