In today’s email we cover how sleeping after stress can be helpful or harmful depending on certain factors, how to avoid the most common joint disease, and easy ways to stop hair loss that most people don’t know about.
Taking supplements could be a lot more fun than popping pills! You might want to try the "Sun Goddess Matcha" from today’s sponsor Pique; it’s a tasty drink stacked with antioxidants, chlorophyll, l-theanine, EGCG, and more. Click here to check it out!

I Didn’t Believe the Matcha Hype—Until This
What if one simple daily ritual could transform your skin, energy, and focus?
Pique’s Sun Goddess Matcha is more than just a delicious drink—it’s a superpowered blend of antioxidants, chlorophyll, and L-theanine that supports glowing skin, steady energy, and calm focus.
I was skeptical at first. I didn’t love the taste of matcha and wasn’t sure it would live up to the hype. But within weeks of switching to Sun Goddess Matcha, I noticed:
✅ Effortless digestion
✅ Jitter-free energy
✅ Brighter, clearer skin
Why it works:
🍵 30x the antioxidants of blueberries
🍵 Detoxifying chlorophyll + firming EGCG
🍵 L-theanine + caffeine for calm, focused energy
It’s my favorite way to start the day and it might become yours, too.
