Welcome to the Let's Talk Toxins show!

Are you struggling with unexplained fatigue, brain fog, or recurring health issues that just won’t go away? These symptoms might not be as random as they seem—they could be linked to the long-term effects of viral infections hiding in your body. These latent viruses are stealthy invaders, often going unnoticed until they trigger unexpected symptoms or complicate your health during midlife and menopause.

In this episode, Dr. Gala Gorman, a licensed acupuncturist, naturopath, and author of “What’s Your Kryptonite?”, uncovers the hidden dangers of viral latency and the far-reaching effects of chronic viral infections. Dr. Gorman explains how to recognize the signs, shares practical strategies for prevention, and offers natural remedies to help you manage these silent threats and support your long-term wellness.
