Holistic Health with Dr. Heather Heck
Hello, I'm Dr. Heather Heck and I'm a little unique in that I hold credentials in both eastern and western medicine. I actually just closed my physical practice and now I want to share all of my knowledge and real-life experiences with you.
Not only that, but I'm also a mother and I have had so many mom-patients who just want to know how to best create a healthy environment for their kids. I plan to share all the ways I try and do this in my own home. My goal is to help YOU find the good, better, and best options in your whole body health through education and making sure you're aware of all of the holistic options you have. I am hoping this podcast is the start of many conversations and that I can positively impact your life, even if just by listening! Follow-me: https://linktr.ee/doctorheck

Holistic Health with Dr. Heather Heck: Glyphosates
Do you have health + wellness questions? Don't worry; I've got you! Text me.
Glyphosates are the most common pesticides in agriculture. Developed in 1950 and commercialized in 1974, glyphosates were patented in 1964 to bind to minerals and clear them out of pipes…
Thanks to Round-up, glyphosates are now present in more than 90% of soybeans, corn, cotton, and sugar beets. Additionally, according to the National Library of Medicine's 2022 published study, residues were found in the urine of 60–80% of the general population in the United States.
We are each continually exposed to varying levels of glyphosates via run-off in our water, through our skin from what's in the air around us, and through the food we eat.
So, what can we do? As you know, I feel there's always a way to enforce good-better-best practices in our daily lives that can help prevent some of the side effects of this harmful chemical or continually detox after exposure. I'm glad to share some ways I've helped protect my patients, my family, and myself from glyphosates in this episode.
