MATCHA
It’s no secret this well known skin food is a staple of my routine. It contains the amino acid l-theanine which lowers cortisol and improves cognition, the compound EGCG known for it’s anti-inflammatory and pro-metabolic effects, as well as antioxidants that support cellular function and combat oxidative stress. It’s a calmer caffeine high than coffee, and the bitterness can help aid in digestion too. Mega super food NRG okkk!
As with many things, quality matters— the more alive and vibrant the better the benefits so make sure you purchase ceremonial grade. Lastly, I love the taste of it alone, with unsweetened almond milk, or blended with Cap Beauty coconut butter. If you find the grassy flavor too much, ease in with 1 tsp blended with your favorite milk (+ optional honey) served hot or iced.

CHLOROPHYLL DROPS
The Juna World Detox Drops are rich in skin-supporting nutrients that aid in optimizing detox, calming oxidative stress, and oxygenating the cells. Chlorophyll has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties which can assist in healing skin disorders. Unlike some chlorophyll drops which can taste intense, this one contains lemon and mint which makes for a refreshing and delicious water enhancement.

LÂCHE-LYMPHE
This potent herbal tincture was formulated to optimize whole-body lymphatic function and subsequently, skin health. Perfect for adding to your water before, during, or after your sweat session for increased cellular repair, lymph support, and skin calm.
Additionally, I like to take this when traveling or feeling under the weather/stagnant.
DIGESTIVE ENZYMES
For when you lean into fluidity and treat yourself to going out to dinner, take a comprehensive digestive enzyme with you. Take with water at the beginning of your dinner to ease bloat and help breakdown the extra carbs, dairy, and dessert involved.
Tip—I put mine in my travel Seed Probiotic container and keep them in my purse.
BONE BROTH
Either you’re like “yes I love this, good reminder” or “no thank youuu”. But hear me out, the quality and recipe matters— I prefer beef bone broth when drinking it alone and I usually put in a blend of sea salt, a healthy fat (ghee, olive oil, etc) and either miso paste, herbs, or lemon for boosted flavor. Try out different combinations and find your jam.
DANDELION ROOT TEA
This has been my non-caffeinated go-to for years now and I always lean in when the cold comes back around. It’s high in the skin’s favorite vitamins A and C, boosts immune function, aids in healthy cell growth, and promotes optimal detoxification. The taste is subtle but warming, with a natural vanilla flavor. I love to pair it with a splash of unsweetened almond milk or cream.
