Summary

Hi Heal Squad! This episode is about to blow your mind! Is it possible that your FAVE workout leggings could be making you sick? And why is Gen Z feeling more disconnected than ever? The Roundtable is BACK, breaking down the latest jaw-dropping health headlines you can’t ignore AND giving their hot takes. Here’s a little preview…are forever chemicals and microplastics in fashion staples, like workout leggings, impacting your health more than you realize? Dr. Alison went full closet detox, Maria’s making swaps, Deidre isn’t convinced, and Christina’s all about function. It’s the roundtable’s healthiest debate yet! PLUS, they tackle the big question—why does the younger generation feel so lost? Could social media addiction and unearned dopamine hits (Maria’s AHA moment!) be to blame? Tune in and find out what’s really happening. We hope you enjoy it! -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmari HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/ Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront AquaTru: https://aquatruwater.com/ code: HEALSQUAD Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Sleep Number: https://www.sleepnumber.com/ ROUNDTABLE RESOURCES & HEADLINES: Leo & Lennon: https://leoandlennon.com/?srsltid=AfmBOopla2awXVEFJ3dP1ui0bNLNmFlIKGHYt9DDbBjFAUj8w9-Y70_M Mate The Label: https://matethelabel.com/ Jungmaven: https://jungmaven.com/ Health & Light: https://www.amazon.com/Health-Light-extraordinary-Affects-emotional/dp/0898040981 The Race to Remove ‘Forever Chemicals’ from Clothing Ahead of Bans https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-race-to-remove-forever-chemicals-from-clothing-ahead-of-bans-d38edc75 Are you wearing natural fibresor petroleum derived micro-plastics? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DFDe5_9tJox/?igsh=NjZiM2M3MzIxNA%3D%3D Shein And Temu Products Found To Contain Harmful Levels Of Toxic Chemicals https://www.elle.com.au/fashion/fashion-news/shein-temu-contain-toxic-chemicals-study/ ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
