You’ve heard me talk a lot about food. Nose-to-tail, organ meats, ancestral living. But the truth is, we’re now dealing with stuff our ancestors never had to face. Microplastics are in our water, in our food, even in our blood. And that means we need to bring in new tools.

Dan Powers is the founder of Utzy Naturals. He’s a husband, a father of five, and someone who’s always believed in the power of whole foods, movement, sleep, and doing things right. But when he read a study in the New England Journal of Medicine linking microplastics in the blood to cardiovascular issues, something shifted. He went deep into the research and started building a product to help support the body’s detox process.

We talk about what these tiny plastic particles are, how they’re getting into our systems, and what they’re doing once they’re in there. And more importantly, we talk about what we can actually do about it, without fear, stress, or chasing perfection.

Key Takeaways

Whole Foods Won’t Cut It Alone - Dan shares how clean eating was no longer enough once he understood how microplastics impact the body.

Microplastics Are in the Blood - After reading new research on cardiovascular effects, Dan began taking this threat seriously.

Toxins Are a Daily Exposure - These particles are in our food, water, air, and even sea salt, building up over time in the body.

We Need Practical Detox Tools - Dan talks through how he approached building a supplement that could support the body’s natural detoxification process.

You Can Take Action Without Perfectionism - It’s not about fear or doing everything right. It’s about being realistic and consistent.

Resilience in a Toxic World - The focus isn’t just removal. It’s about strengthening our body’s capacity to handle what we’re exposed to every day.
