Summary

Is eating healthy becoming a luxury? This week, we dive into why nutritious food is more expensive than ever and how to make eating well more affordable. Plus, fresh vs frozen food—does it really matter? We break down what’s worth spending on and where frozen might be the better option. We also talk about The Hot Girl Walk, the TikTok trend with over 600 million views that might be the easiest (and cheapest) wellness habit yet. Then, we unpack NAD+, the latest “longevity hack” that has celebrities hooked. Does it actually work, or is it just another expensive quick fix? And finally, why you don’t need to be perfect to be healthy. Science shows our happiness and well-being naturally ebb and flow. No one feels 100% all the time, and that’s normal. We explore why ‘good enough’ can sometimes be the best health strategy. Recommendations This Week • Grandparenting by Terri Apter (book) • A tea flask instead of a keep cup (a game-changer!) • One-Pan Leek and Butter Bean Orzo, an easy, budget-friendly recipe from Deliciously Ella Join us as we cut through the noise, break down the trends, and bring you real, practical advice on what’s worth your time, money, and health!
