Do you live somewhere with access to a basement? Check for radon.
Do you use non-stick cookware? If it's Teflon, toss it.
Walking outside in the sun? Wear sunblock.
Stressed out? Try meditation.
I don't doubt the veracity of the video, but there are levels to this, and there are far bigger toxins in your life that you should deal with before worrying about plastics.
Preferably physical sunscreen
Nothing beats physical/mineral sunscreen in effectiveness, but I still love the light feel of my water-based Japanese sunscreens.
One of the videos says mineral sunscreen is carcinogenic or something like that.
Are you sure you're not thinking of chemical sunscreens? The minerals zinc and titanium are bioinert. Chemical sunscreen ingredients like avobenzone and oxybenzone, however, are hormone disrupters.
