Understanding the impact of toxins with Izzy Kirkby

There is increasing evidence that there are known environmental toxins in our food, water, household products, furnishings, and building materials.

We breathe them in, ingest them and absorb them through our skin. This is worrying and I feel it is important to educate ourselves and make informed decisions about what we put into our bodies and have in our environments.

In this episode, my guest Izzy Kirby and I delve into this subject a  bit more.

Background

Izzy has trained in naturopathy, nutritional therapy, iridology and specialises in herbal medicine. She has studied a range of healing traditions and synthesises Ayurvedic, alchemical and astrological concepts into her practice.

Her approach combines science and biochemistry with an understanding of traditional naturopathic techniques to achieve optimum health and wellbeing through herbal medicine, nutritional and lifestyle changes.

She is passionate about empowering people to take their health into their own hands and promoting the knowledge of the wise woman tradition so that herbal medicine is accessible to all for healing.

 Izzy also works with private clients, charities and businesses to teach people about how they can feel better using natural medicine.
