Happy weekend 👋
Today is National Recycling Day in the US, so it’s a great day to remember to “reduce, reuse, recycle”.

In today’s email we cover NAD⁺ vs long COVID, in-body heavy metal detoxification, and fixing lower back pain.
Do you (like this writer) love coffee? If so, today’s sponsor Trade is all set to change your mornings for the better.
On their website, if you scroll down just a little, they have a quiz that helps identify the perfect coffee for you (bean, roast, grind, etc) and then matches you with the ideal coffee from a local artisanal roastery (click here to find out yours) ☕💕

Ditch grocery store coffee. Support small roasters instead with Trade.
❝I don’t know about you, but like most Americans, the first thing I reach for every morning is my favorite mug and the coffee in my pantry. For years, I grabbed whatever coffee was on sale at the grocery store, never considering its origin. As long as it got me going, that was enough.
But then I found Trade, and it completely transformed my morning routine. Trade connects you with some of the finest small-batch coffee roasters across the country—the kind of local businesses you’d want to visit if they were nearby.
These aren’t giant chains with mass-produced blends; these are passionate artisans crafting coffee that’s fresh, unique, and bursting with flavor.
I took Trade’s quick quiz, and they matched me with coffees I never would’ve found on a grocery store shelf. Now, I can’t imagine going back. Every bag is roasted fresh and shipped straight to me. The difference in taste was astounding—I didn’t even have to change my brewing method. And the aroma? Let’s just say even my neighbor asked what I was drinking. Supporting small businesses has never been easier—or more rewarding.❞
