It might shock you to know that the clothing industry is the second largest polluter in the world... second only to oil.

On today’s podcast, Denby Royal—holistic nutrition and eco-fashion consultant—joins me on another fascinating episode of Ancestral Health Radio.

Denby and I discuss why westerners commonly fail to think about their clothing's environmental and social impact on the rest of the planet, the physical and psychological pitfalls the fashion industry has on our health, followed by simple, inexpensive tips on how to make more conscious decisions when thinking about your wardrobe.

Other fun things you'll learn in today's episode are...

  • How clothing affects our bodies and its many systems,
  • The true cost of fast fashion,
  • Denby's suggestions for buying less but buying better, and...
  • Much, much more.
