These chemicals and pollutants can silently undermine our immune systems, increase our risk for chronic illness, and sabotage our health at the cellular level. That’s why I’m especially excited to welcome Dr. Aly Cohen to this episode of The Empowering Neurologist. This conversation is not only eye- opening, it’s empowering and filled with practical, actionable steps that each of us can take starting today. In our conversation Dr. Cohen takes us through the science and the soul of her mission. We explore what inspired her to write Detoxify, a journey that began at the intersection of clinical frustration and personal awakening. Over the years, she began noticing that many of her patients with autoimmune diseases, chronic fatigue, hormonal imbalances, and neurological complaints shared a common thread: consistent exposure to environmental toxins. This wasn't just about vague “bad stuff.”Dr. Cohen has zeroed in on a specific category of chemicals she terms “Immune-disrupting chemicals (IDCs).” These are substances that directly interfere with the immune system's ability to regulate and repair. In our conversation she introduces her '4A’s of Environmental Health Navigation' an empowering framework to help us reduce toxic exposures. We also dive into her 21-day detox plan, a blueprint that has transformed the lives of countless patients by helping them systematically remove common environmental stressors from their daily routines. Dr. Cohen doesn’t stop at theory… she gets specific - with personal care products to avoid, water purification tips every household should know, and simple DIY recipes for safer cleaning and skincare. Her “Detoxify Food Pyramid” reimagines what a clean, immune-supportive diet looks like in a world of processed foods and contaminated agriculture. We also touch on how environmental toxins can act as potent triggers for autoimmune conditions like lupus and rheumatoid arthritis - diseases Dr. Cohen treats in her clinical practice almost every day. Her integrative approach doesn’t just mask symptoms; it targets root causes by supporting the body’s own detoxification systems - the liver, kidneys, lymphatics, and beyond. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the sheer scale of modern toxicity, this episode offers a clear and hopeful path forward. Dr. Cohen emphasizes that detoxifying your life doesn’t mean doing everything at once. It’s about starting small. Things like switching to a glass water bottle, choosing fragrance-free detergents, and reading ingredient labels can lead to profound health benefits. �� Listen to the full episode on The Empowering Neurologist wherever you get your podcasts. #Detoxify #TheEmpoweringNeurologist #EnvironmentalHealth #AlyCohenMD #ImmuneHealth #ToxinFreeLiving #Autoimmunity #DetoxYourLife #SmartHuman ==== TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Introduction 02:15 Welcoming Dr. Amy Cohen & Her Inspiration for Her Book 05:45 Water & How Contamination Dysregulates Our Immune System 10:44 Recommendations for Filtration and Purification 13:13 Quality of Bottled Water Is Sub Par & Likely Tap Water 18:03 Endocrine Disrupting Chemical Contaminants Found In Our Water 21:47 Sparking Change with The Four A's: Assess, Avoid Or Swap, Add, Allow 27:39 How Did These Chemicals Enter Our Food & Water Supply? 34:10 How Do Genetics Determine Your Ability To Detoxify? 37:50 Air Quality, Pollution, and The Impact On Our Bodies 43:49 Navigating How To Improve The Air You Breath 47:41 Detoxifying The Body From Air Pollution 51:18 Hidden Threats In Your Personal Care Products & How To Avoid Them 1:04:19 Conclusion ==== Dr. Aly Cohen is a board-certified physician practicing in rheumatology and integrative medicine, as well as an environmental health expert in Princeton, New Jersey.
