5/ Potential links to my exposure to air pollution in India While both the timing and composition of the toxic metabolites in my panel indicate a very likely acute spike linked to the urban wildfire (especially fumes and ash from burning homes) in LA, a contribution of my…

2/ Phthalate metabolites Phthalates are commonly used plasticizers (additives to make plastic more flexible), markedly increased due to homes burning in wildfires. Phthalates and their metabolites are endocrine disruptors, which are linked to reproductive, developmental,…

3/ Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) metabolites As the name implies, these are common toxins in the fumes of burning organic materials, including wildfires. Dioxins, polycyclic aromatic carbons PACs, benzene, and xylene are common examples. Most of these compounds cause…

0/ I suppose if there was one person in LA who was routinely measuring their toxin levels when the fires broke out, it would be me. My urinary toxins panel taken at the height of the LA wildfires on January 28th, 2025 showed 9 acutely increased metabolite toxins (4 of which…

1/ Almost all the elevated toxic metabolites come from exposure to the fumes of burning plastics and synthetics from homes, rather than burning trees in the wildfire itself. The acutely elevated toxic metabolites in my urine sample from January 28th, 2025 can be categorized in…

The LA fires filled my body with harmful toxins. One toxic chemical, NAPR, an organic solvent used in metal cleaning, foam gluing, and dry cleaning, increased by 728%. If you were exposed too, here is what you can do. 🧵

@anothercohen Testosterone levels naturally decline ~1% per year after age 30-40 however many men over 40, including myself, naturally maintain healthy levels of testosterone via strength training, cardio, sleep, and nutrition.
The Kardashians and @hubermanlab came over for dinner. We discussed if we may be the first generation to not die. @KimKardashian was down. @khloekardashian wasn't sold. On @hulu tonight.
