đ¤ Let's talk Phthalates! â
â
Phthalates are primarily used as plasticizers to increase the flexibility, transparency, durability, and longevity of plastics. They can be found in many common items, including fragrances, cosmetics, vinyl flooring, and even some packaged foods.â
â
These chemicals can disrupt your endocrine system and potentially impact your overall well-being.â
â
Here's the catch: phthalates have been linked to some concerning health issues affecting:â
â
đ§ Mental Health & Behaviorâ
â
â¤ď¸ Cardiovascular & Respiratoryâ
â
đŞ Metabolic & Endocrineâ
â
đĄď¸ Immuneâ
â
đą Reproductiveâ
â
đď¸ Oncologicâ
â
âĄď¸ Swipe through this carousel to uncover what phthalates are, where they're found, and why you should be aware.â

What if the everyday products you rely on, including your water bottle, your shampoo, your food containers, were quietly working against your fertility?â
â
That question sparked the journey behind The Plastic Detox, where Jesse and Darby Nubbe(@jesseanddarby_plastics ) took a closer look at the hidden chemicals in their daily lives.â
â
Jesse and Darby joined other infertile couples to work with Million Marker and Dr. Shanna Swan to test their exposure levels and determine what meaningful changes were actually within reach.â
â
Along the way, they rethought routines, challenged assumptions, and made shifts aimed at supporting their fertility outcomes.â
â
In this conversation, they share what that experience was really like from start to finish.â
â
They walk through what they learned from the Million Marker Exposure Test and how it shaped their decisions.â
â
They also reflect on which changes made the biggest differenceâŚand which ones proved more difficult to maintain.â

Infertility is often treated as a mystery, but what if part of the answer has been hiding in everyday plastic all along?â
â
Today, weâre joined by a couple whose journey put that question before a global audience.â
â
Bruno Leonard (@brunoleonardo_usa ) and Monique Tavares (@monique.ct ) opened their lives on Netflixâs The Plastic Detox, sharing the emotional reality of trying to conceive while confronting the hidden impact of environmental toxics.â
â
Before The Plastic Detox, Monique and Bruno were navigating the uncertainty, frustration, and heartbreak that so many couples quietly endure.â
â
Through The Plastic Detox, they committed to testing, awareness, and meaningful lifestyle changes, including the data and insights we helped provide along the way.â
â
What followed was extraordinary.â
â
And we are so excited for them to share their experience with you all.â
â
Today, weâll talk about what life looked like before, what changed during The Plastic Detox, and how those changes continue to shape their growing family.â

Did you know most plastic products (>99%) are made from petrochemicals that are harmful to our health? Plastics and their chemical additives surround us â invading the foods we eat, the air we breathe, and the products we put on our skin. These harmful chemicals can interfere with hormones and are linked to higher risks of infertility, obesity, and chronic disease.Â
The good news is that there are effective steps you can take to protect yourself, your family, and your community.Â

Bed, Bath, and Bleh! đ¤˘
Pretty smelling lotions aren't so pretty for your hormones.
Many âfragranceâ blends contain phthalates, a group of chemicals used to help scents last longer and stick to your skin.
The problem?
Phthalates are known endocrine disruptors, meaning they can interfere with your hormones and have been linked to issues like fertility challenges, metabolic changes, and developmental concerns.
Because companies can list these chemicals simply as âfragrance,â itâs almost impossible to know what youâre actually being exposed to.
Thatâs where Million Marker comes in. With simple at-home testing, you can measure your bodyâs phthalate levels and get personalized, science-backed recommendations to help you reduce exposure and swap in safer products.
Better choices start with better data. Tap this post to shop Million Marker!
Can reducing plastic chemicals help fertility? đ¤°đťđ§Ź
In The Plastic Detox, @million_marker saw levels of BPA and phthalates drop by up to ~70% in just weeks with simple product swaps.
The initial results indicate a big take-away: the products you use every day matter. đ
Plastic pollution doesnât stop at the ocean...and neither do its health impacts.â
â
Last nightâs Detoxing from Plastic screening, in conjunction with SF Climate Week, brought that reality front and center. The Plastic Detox on Netflix shows how the same chemicals and microplastics harming our environment are also showing up in our bodies and affecting hormones, fertility, and long-term health.â
â
One of the most special moments for Million Marker was seeing our team member Lindsay Hahn reunite with Bruno and Monique, one of the couples featured in The Plastic Detox. Throughout filming and beyond, we partnered with them to test for plastic-related chemicals, track their progress, and support realistic lifestyle changes that could help protect their fertility and overall health.â
â
Weâre so grateful that Monique and Bruno chose to share their story with the world...and deeply honored that Million Marker could play even a small role in their fertility journey! Their experience is a powerful reminder that when people have clear data, practical tools, and encouragement, small changes can add up to life-changing outcomes.â
â
The conversation that followed the screening, featuring Louie Psihoyos, Josh 'Bones' Murphy, Shanna Swan, PhD, Thalia R. Segal, and moderator Dianna Cohen. highlighted a critical truth: Plastic isnât just an environmental problem. Itâs a human health problem we can actually do something about.â
â
If youâve watched The Plastic Detox (or plan to), and youâre wondering what your own exposure looks like, this is exactly the kind of work we do every day at Million Marker.
Did you watch The Plastic Detox and suddenly start seeing plastics everywhere? đŤ â
â
Itâs like you canât unsee it! Cleaning products, haircare, clothes... these chemicals are all around us. It can feel totally overwhelming, wondering where to start on your plastic detox journey.â
â
One bit of advice: Start small! Tiny changes today add up to long-lasting lifestyle habits tomorrow. â
