Staying consistent with your hair care routine is no easy feat. It can take a ton of effort and time in your daily routine, not to mention it can sometimes take months to even finally see noticeable results.  That’s why I like to stick to hair growth serums to stay on track with maintaining a healthy head of hair. They’re incredibly easy to use (taking literal seconds) and allows you to directly target thinning areas like a receding hairline or widening part. When it comes to finding the right product that won’t go over budget, a dermatologist told me to…

When you’re managing ADHD—or simply navigating the distractions of modern life—traditional productivity tools often fall short. My guest, Skye Waterson, knows this better than most.

Whether you’ve been diagnosed, suspect you might have ADHD, or simply want to focus better in a world…

It’s more than a week since Derek Lunsford was crowned Mr. Olympia. And as things have settled since bodybuilding’s biggest event, there’s still plenty to talk about. I must say that this year, as a spectacle, the event was reminiscent of a real, live, old-school bodybuilding show. Gone were the distractions of smoke, the enormous video wall, and the rock concert lighting. As if our pleas were heard, during prejudging the background was predominantly dark—not quite black, but at times close. No annoying detail-blurring smoke. The lighting, although not perfect, was at least not moving. And the production was just…

Think of your favorite egg-related breakfast: an omelet, eggs Benedict, avocado toast, scrambled eggs, the list goes on. Now think of how many eggs you crack in the pan to make your morning meal.Is it two? We wouldn’t be surprised if it was. For many of us, two eggs feels like the Goldilocks number—just right. Maybe one egg won’t fill you up, and three feels a bit “excessive.” But nutrition scientists would encourage you to think again.If you rely on two eggs in the morning for your protein fix, you likely aren’t getting enough of the macronutrient, according to Keri…

For celebrated culinary expert and Top Chef judge Gail Simmons, the dinner table has never been just about food. Long before she became known for championing chefs and elevating meals on screen, the table was where her own family gathered to process life, the beautiful, the complicated, and the unspoken. It was a place to sit together, even when finding the right words was not easy. Gail’s understanding of that sacred space deepened as a teenager, when her older brother Alan was diagnosed with schizophrenia, an often misunderstood and deeply stigmatized mental illness. In the midst of uncertainty, family meals…

Carbohydrates are often seen as the enemy as brands and social media influencers seemingly push carb-free-everything. And, while cutting carbohydrates can be a sensible way to reduce excess energy intake, those who push their bodies hard must keep up with their carb intake, especially post workout, in order to replenish glycogen levels in a timely manner, explains a groundbreaking new study. While experts have long known that post-exercise carb digestion is necessary for replenishing glycogen in our bodies, the amount of carbs, and the time required for recovery, has been less understood. A new study,  published in the National Library…

Standing triceps exercises effectively target the back of your arms and can easily fit into your daily routine. The secret lies in training your arms to function the way they do in real life: standing tall, stabilizing your body, and…

Cholesterol doesn’t have the same clout as plenty of other heart-related biomarkers. You can’t check the amount of cholesterol (a.k.a. a waxy fat made by your liver) floating in your blood using a wearable, like you can your heart rate or blood pressure. And even if you pay your doctor a yearly visit (kudos!), they probably aren’t running a blood test for cholesterol unless you’re at high risk for heart disease, for instance due to a family history. But based on new research being presented this weekend at an American College of Cardiology conference, it’s also key to know your…
