Dr. Shanna Swan: "Sperm and Our Future"

Dr. Shanna Swan: "Sperm and Our Future"

On this episode we meet with one of the world's leading environmental and reproductive epidemiologists, Dr. Shanna Swan.

Dr. Swan discusses how chemicals in our environment threaten human hormones, male sperm count, and ultimately, human reproduction. How do endocrine-disrupting hormones disrupt pregnancy? Further, she explains "The 1% Effect," which accounts for the 1 percent annual decrease in human fertility and related functions.

To combat the urgent threats facing human reproduction, Dr. Swan offers recommendations about how we can avoid harmful chemicals — and live healthier lives.
