We had a chance to sit down with Marc Richard, M.D., and Mike Richard, M.D., and get their take on the link between pesticides, synthetic chemicals, and human health. Not only are they prestigious doctors with a lot to say— they’re also identical twins like us!
Consumers can demand change by supporting organic products. Certifications like USDA organic foods and GOTS organic fabrics ensure that there were no pesticides used to create these products. Pesticides linger on your fruits and vegetables no matter how much you scrub them. They cling to fabric even after you wash your clothes 50 times. They find their way into your body, causing innumerable health risks. Whether you’re driven by your care for the environment, or for your own health, supporting organic practices is the way to go.

Those chemicals have been linked to adverse health effects such as skin irritation, developmental issues, and even cancer. Opok Organic Boxer Briefs don't have any of those nasty chemicals.
We had the opportunity to sit down with water polo legend Wolf Wigo. Wolf won 2 national championships at Stanford University and went on to play professionally in Greece as well as represented team USA for 3 olympics. Anyone who knows him knows that he is super into health, especially in living a toxic free organic lifestyle.
