Why Detoxing is No longer Optional in our Modern World with Detox Expert - Eddie Stone
Wed Jan 28 2026
In this episode of The Healthy Home Show, Charlie Lemmer is joined by detox expert Eddie Stone, CEO and founder of Touchstone Essentials, to explore why detox is no longer optional in modern life.
With over 30 years’ experience in the detox and supplements space, Eddie shares how his personal journey into detox began through his mother’s autoimmune health crisis and why today’s toxic load is fundamentally different from anything previous generations faced.
Together, Charlie and Eddie unpack what we are actually detoxing from, including heavy metals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), microplastics, pesticides and everyday chemical exposures found in our air, water, food, clothing and homes. They discuss the concept of “body burden”, how toxins can accumulate over time, and why symptoms such as fatigue, inflammation, hormonal imbalance and autoimmune issues are becoming increasingly common.
The conversation covers practical, grounded strategies for supporting the body’s natural detox systems, including hydration, fibre, gut health, movement, breathing, saunas and reducing environmental exposure. Eddie also explains why gut transit time matters, how microplastics enter the body, and why supporting detox should be about consistency rather than extreme protocols.
Charlie brings the discussion back to the home environment, highlighting the overlooked role that indoor air quality, water quality, materials and everyday lifestyle choices play in long-term health and longevity.
This episode is a calm, evidence-informed conversation about detox without fear or fads, offering listeners a clearer understanding of how to reduce toxic load, support the body, and create environments that allow health to thrive.
