Microplastics In Glass Bottles & Lead In Salt? Cardio Before Strength Or Strength Before Cardio? Creatine Causes Hair Loss? & More: Solosode #492

In the episode, you’ll get to explore some surprising, science-backed insights that could upgrade the way you approach health, performance, and longevity. You’ll discover why your favorite glass water bottle might not be as “clean” as you think, thanks to new research showing it can leach up to 50 times more microplastics than plastic bottles. I break down exactly how that happens, what it means for your health, and offer simple, realistic ways to reduce your microplastic exposure without overhauling your entire life.

Whether you're trying to cut through the noise on microplastics, optimize your workouts, protect your hair while using creatine, or explore unconventional brain-boosting hacks, this episode gives you the tools to think critically, act intentionally, and take your health into your own hands.
