As women, we can handle a lot, especially when you consider that many of us only experience a few days (during menstruation) of a flat hormonal state.

Hot girl walks, iced matcha in hand, quality nutrition, and SPF on. This version of “Hot Girl Summer” is less about overhauls and more about simple habits that stack: moving your body daily, eating clean (but realistically), getting sunlight, and protecting your peace. But here’s the upgrade: what if those same habits weren’t just part […]

There was a time when summer energy meant one thing: an oversized iced coffee sweating in your hand, promising an instant wake-up that carried you through the day—until it didn’t. The jitters, the mid-afternoon crash, the subtle edge of anxiety? Not exactly the summer energy we want. More recently, the energy conversation has been shifting. […]

There’s something about summer that can throw off your usual appetite and eating patterns. Maybe your go-to savory breakfast suddenly sounds heavy, or the thought of a big lunch in 90-degree heat seems deeply unappealing.

How to eat for your menstrual cycle? Just like the weather moves through seasons, your body does too as your energy, appetite, digestion, and mood all shift throughout the month. Your cycle has four phases: menstrual (days 1–5), follicular (~days 6–14), ovulatory (~days 12–16), and luteal (~days 16–28). I like to think of them as […]

GLP-1 medications are in the spotlight and don’t seem to be slowing down any time soon. They’re prized as a fix for everything from stubborn weight to constant cravings, with results that can feel fast. But once you look beyond the headlines, some of the GLP-1 side effects are less discussed than others—menstrual changes included. […]

Berberine has become one of the most talked-about supplements for metabolic wellness. This plant compound has been studied for its ability to support glucose and fat metabolism, and promote a healthier response to carbohydrate-rich meals. But if you’re wondering, “How much berberine should I take?” the answer matters more than you may think. Like many […]

Over the past few years, magnesium has become the wellness world’s resident overachiever. Touted for everything from better sleep and muscle relaxation to smoother BMs, people rely on the supplement for a grab bag of modern concerns.
