Before thorough investigation, one of the latest wellness trends we had been wondering WTF is that?! about is Cryotherapy. Taylor and I had the opportunity to try Cryotherapy at C.R.Y.O. Philadelphia about two weeks ago, and we’re excited to dish the facts + deets about our experiences. What is cryotherapy? “Cryotherapy” can refer to a menagerie of cold therapies—doctors using extreme cold to freeze off … Continue reading WTF: Cryotherapy

If you live in Philly, you may have been #blessed enough to snag some free Pineapple Charcoal Lemon-aid from Sip-N-Glo Juicery for their “free juice day” yesterday. I was lucky enough to grab one, and even though I’ve had their charcoal lemonade before, I couldn’t help but wonder: what is activated charcoal and why am I drinking it? (Other than the obvious reason that drinking … Continue reading WTF: Activated Charcoal

Like many of our WTF posts, this topic was inspired by our own blissful ignorance. We’ve occasionally seen spirulina listed as an ingredient on various menus, but never truly stopped to research and understand it. I recently ordered a smoothie that had spirulina listed as an ingredient, and when Hope asked me what spirulina is, my response was something along the lines of, “Idk, I … Continue reading WTF: Spirulina

Ahh, the day has finally come. We’ve been awaiting this WTF post with bated keto breath. Today, we’re dishin’ on the the diet that keeps the dishes full of fat…Keto! Over the past year or so, there’s no debating that keto has taken the dieting world by storm.

WTF Wednesday is back! Today we’re talking about another super trending topic in the health + wellness space: CBD. It’s been pretty crazy to watch the CBD explosion over the last year or so. From being rather difficult to get your hands on, to now being available in pressed juices, ice cream, gummies, skincare, pet food, and more—CBD is all the rage. But why? What … Continue reading WTF: CBD

I first learned about BCAA supplements when I embarked on my fitness journey and followed several fitness accounts on IG. I noticed various people posting about consuming BCAAs in relation to exercising, plus talking about their many delicious flavors. When I started working with a macro + training coach, she suggested I add them to my routine. Without giving it much thought, I obliged! Taylor … Continue reading WTF: BCAA Supplements

Another WTF Wednesday comin’ in hot (literally)! Hot broth, that is. I wanted to write about bone broth this week, because it occurred to me that I wasn’t even sure if I knew what bone broth is. I mean, sure, I’ve been watching influencers drink it and listening to them tell me it’s healthy for well over a year, but did I really know what … Continue reading WTF: Bone Broth

Okay, so admittedly, this post is way overdue. And maybe it’s a little irrelevant at this point. Do people still drink bulletproof coffee? Regardless, it’s another health and wellness trend that made us go “WTF?”, so we’re here to talk about it! I personally heard about bulletproof coffee for the first time a little over a year ago, when I was in the middle of … Continue reading WTF: Bulletproof Coffee

For our first WTF post, we gave you the scoop on BOOCH. Today, almost a year later, we’re serving up the deets on NOOCH. I recently discovered that “nooch” is the nickname for “nutritional yeast”, and I am quite tickled. Anyway, what is nutritional yeast? Carrying through with the theme of many of our WTF posts, nutritional yeast is an ingredient that’s been taking the … Continue reading WTF: Nutritional Yeast
