Your Wardrobe Is Poisoning You (Here’s the Proof)

Have you ever wondered what’s really in the clothes you wear or the sheets you sleep on? In this episode of Non-Toxic Living, I’m exposing one of the dirtiest industries on the planet– the textile industry. From polyester fabrics to supposedly “organic” cotton, our wardrobes are quietly contributing to health issues we rarely trace back to what’s touching our skin.


I uncover how microplastics, hormone-disrupting chemicals, and synthetic dyes find their way from your clothes into your body and why “eco-friendly” doesn’t always mean toxin-free. You’ll learn how even premium brands use petroleum-based dyes, flame retardants, and formaldehyde to make fabrics stretch, look soft, or resist stains at the cost of your long-term health.


But this isn’t just about what’s wrong. I’ll share the brands doing it right, such as Harvest & Mill, Esmaee, and Namarie, as well as practical steps you can take today to detoxify your wardrobe. You’ll also learn about standards like GOTS-certified and how to find clothing and sheets that support, not compromise, your health.


This episode serves as a wake-up call to anyone who wants to live cleaner, breathe more easily, and feel better in their own skin. Listen in to discover how to choose fabrics that love your body back — and why true wellness starts with what you wear.
