75 Days of Torture or Transformation?
You’ve probably seen it smattered all over your social media feeds: the 75 Hard Challenge. This grueling program—which guarantees a major body makeover in just 75 days—is essentially boot camp on steroids. It’s enthralling Gen Z—those internet natives always on the prowl for the next great trend—and specifically all its promises of swift results and that all-important “transformation” snap. But this is not your average “go to the gym” set-up, people. It’s more of a military operation, and to be frank, it makes me a little concerned.

Snack or Betrayal: The Ultra-Processed Food Dilemma
Ah, the contemporary bind: snack or not to snack? That is the question. Or rather, to nibble at what—because, let’s face it, the siren song of a packet of Monster Munch or a chocolate Hobnob dipped in tea is very hard to resist. But then, like a nagging conscience, the words “ultra-processed food” (UPF) flicker in your mind’s eye, and suddenly that biscuit is no longer a treat; it is a betrayal. Sound familiar?

A Balancing Act: Essential Nutrients for Hormone Health
Hormones are poorly understood, but everyone is talking about them. The number of times I have heard references to “hormones” when describing body symptoms but limited explanation as to why they would be involved… there’s a phrase about having a nickel or a dime for every time, I think.
