TOXIN FREE TEXAN RESOURCE GUIDE
Seven years ago out of the blue I started to get migraines, hormonal acne and brain fog. All of it was completely debilitating at times and interfered with my daily life. I went to my PCP and OBGYN & I was given medicine for migraines (that ended up sending me to an emergency clinic) & different birth control that made me bleed consistently. I knew there had to be another way to figure out what was wrong with my body & heal other than taking these medicines with completely awful side effects that weren't even fixing the issue & that is where all of this began.
I had one "crunchy" friend at the time & she told me about a podcast called Colorful Eats with Justine Campbell and Caroline Potter. I immediately started listening to it & I was shocked at what I was hearing. Food as medicine? Natural remedies? Toxins in our products and food? All of this was new information to me. I began to swap out products, change my diet, utilize natural remedies (essential oils) & I saw my life transform. The veil had been lifted. I wrote a little more in-depth post on my background here if you're interested in more details.
A few years into the journey I had gotten married and that's when we went through all of our fertility struggles with multiple losses. I need to do an updated post on that but here is an old one I've done. After going through fertility testing and realizing nothing was "wrong" on testing I again did more research and overhauled my life even more before getting pregnant with our sweet little boy. That is when I became more active with sharing things over on Instagram.
Fast forward to now and I have now become the "crunchy" friend & I have friends and lovely people on Instagram reach out to ask me questions & I absolutely love it! Several months ago my good friend asked me for some ear infection remedies because her child needed help. I immediately sent her some Instagram posts from nurses, blog posts and articles. I had a thought right then- I need to compile all of these various resources into one spot so if anyone else needs this information I have it ready to send. That is where this resource began.
I have taken a plethora of topics & compiled articles, posts, stories, videos, books, podcasts, etc... on these topics to help you research things from a non-conventional viewpoint. I'm kicking myself for not saving more resources from the start but I never imagined it would evolve like this.
Some of these topics have many links and others might only have one. The purpose of this is to help give you a kick start and maybe open your eyes to new information. My goal is to continually add to these posts as I come across new information. These are in no way all-inclusive but my goal was to provide a starting point for you.
This is not a fancy website made by a graphic designer. I have done this all myself & I need to fine-tune these but the knowledge is there! If I took from an Instagram post I tried to take screen shots so you could see the photos & caption. For others I just provided links. You'll see below there were a few times where I accidentally made two articles on the same topic. I'll eventually go back and clean that up. I should also note that just because I use someone as a source it doesn't mean I agree with that person on everything 100%.
I am going to list all of the topics below in alphabetical order. Eventually I will try to link all of these here but for now just go to www.thetoxinfreetexan.com & in the search bar on the top right enter any of these key words and the article should pop up.
I hope this is a resource that makes your life easier. This whole thing is just a side hobby I do in my (very limited) spare time but it is something I have become passionate about. Please reach out with any questions or if you have another topic you'd like for me to add. I'm always available via Instagram @thetoxinfreetexan.
