This will make you want to reduce your screen time!

Cindi • September 24, 2024


What if I told you that the reason you could be struggling to follow your meal plan, or sticking with some of your new healthy habits Is your phone?


Hear me out!


When we scroll on our phones, our brains release dopamine — a.k.a. the same “feel-good” chemical we get when we eat our favorite foods or get a hug.


Sounds harmless, right?


Unfortunately, research is finding that those quick dopamine hits from our phones can create a cycle of instant gratification similar to substance abuse!


When that happens, our brains start to prefer those quick, satisfying dopamine hits over any sort of delayed gratification…


And as you can imagine, that can make it harder to do things you don’t want to do — like meal prep for the week when you’d rather sit and scroll.


My suggestion?


Check your average screen time.


Not loving it? Simply try to cut it back each day. You can do this by counting to five before grabbing your phone.


If you still feel the urge, do something active for just five minutes instead.


Take a short walk, stretch, grab a glass of water, or even just step outside for a breath of fresh air.


This small break can help reset your brain and give you a burst of energy and focus!

Many conventional skincare products contain harmful chemicals that can disrupt hormones, increase cancer risk, and negatively impact overall health. Choosing a brand like Naturopathica, which prioritizes clean, natural, and science-backed ingredients, can help you avoid these risks while nourishing your skin. The Risks of Conventional Skincare 1. Endocrine Disruptors (Hormone Disruptors) Parabens (methylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, etc.) Mimic estrogen, potentially leading to hormonal imbalances and breast cancer. Phthalates (commonly found in fragrances, lotions, and creams) Disrupt hormone production, affecting fertility and fetal development. Triclosan (found in antibacterial soaps and some toothpastes) Alters thyroid function and may contribute to antibiotic resistance. Oxybenzone (found in chemical sunscreens, lotions, and lip balms) Mimics estrogen, linked to reproductive harm and lower sperm count. Why Choose Naturopathica? Naturopathica is free from parabens, phthalates, and synthetic fragrances, making it a safe choice for those looking to protect their hormonal health. 2. Carcinogens (Cancer-Causing Chemicals) Certain synthetic skincare ingredients have been linked to increased cancer risk through prolonged exposure. Formaldehyde-releasing preservatives (DMDM hydantoin, Diazolidinyl urea, Quaternium-15, etc.) Can release formaldehyde, a known human carcinogen. Coal tar dyes (often labeled as FD&C or D&C colors) Contain heavy metals linked to cancer and nervous system toxicity. Polyethylene Glycols (PEGs, commonly used in creams and lotions) Often contaminated with 1,4-dioxane, a known carcinogen. Ethanolamines (DEA, TEA, MEA, found in foaming cleansers and shampoos) Linked to liver and kidney cancer. Why Choose Naturopathica? Naturopathica avoids synthetic dyes, PEGs, and harmful preservatives. Instead, they use botanical extracts and clean, plant-based preservatives to protect your skin and overall well-being. 3. Skin Irritants and Toxins Many mainstream skincare products contain chemicals that cause inflammation, allergic reactions, and weaken the skin barrier. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) & Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) Strip skin of natural oils, leading to irritation and increased chemical absorption. Synthetic Fragrances (Parfum) Can contain hundreds of undisclosed chemicals, many of which are hormone disruptors and allergens. BHA & BHT (preservatives in moisturizers and lipsticks) Possible carcinogens linked to liver and kidney damage. Why Choose Naturopathica? Naturopathica uses pure essential oils and natural botanicals instead of synthetic fragrances, reducing the risk of irritation and hormone disruption. 4. Heavy Metals in Beauty Products Some conventional skincare and makeup products contain toxic heavy metals. Lead (found in lipsticks, eyeliners, and foundation) Known neurotoxin and carcinogen that can cause developmental delays. Mercury (found in some anti-aging creams and skin-lightening products) Toxic to the nervous system. Why Choose Naturopathica? Naturopathica follows strict purity and sourcing standards to ensure their products are free from heavy metals and toxic contaminants. The Naturopathica Difference: Clean, Effective, and Safe Skincare Unlike many conventional brands, Naturopathica combines holistic healing with science-backed formulations to deliver effective, skin-friendly solutions. Their products are: Free from parabens, phthalates, sulfates, and synthetic fragrances Made with organic, plant-based ingredients Clinically tested and formulated for skin health Eco-friendly and cruelty-free Switching to a clean skincare brand like Naturopathica means nourishing your skin without exposing yourself to harmful chemicals.
