Such is the case with Vegamour’s GRO Hair Serum: Thousands have sung the praises of this nutrient-rich formula (this beauty editor included), and many say it’s the only remedy that helped when nothing else worked. And today, the brand is offering 25% off the serum with code 25CYBER—just in case the impressive before and after photos aren’t enough to inspire you to snag a bottle. All of these ingredients also have antioxidant properties, which can help combat free radicals from UV rays or pollution; research shows oxidative stress from free radicals plays a role in hair loss in adults1, so tending to the hair and scalp with antioxidants is critical....

The first step was to take a test to determine my current Ayurvedic dosha constitution and send Blades the results. When I did it a few weeks ago, I was presenting with a pitta imbalance. I’m a pitta vata dosha type, and my pitta energy was particularly high. It’s worth mentioning that I’m in the throes of my own personal health crisis. I’ve seen many specialists and no one knows for sure what’s going on, but my doctors suspect the root of it is autoimmune, so I’m doing everything I can to complement the Western medicine with holistic healing....

For me, it’s hard to look away—one, because the eye-catching aspect of this nutritional supplement is difficult to ignore, and two, as an RDN, the supposed health benefits make me want to take a closer look. Like, really close. You see, proponents of blue matcha (which is not to be confused with the proprietary spirulina extract called “Blue Majik,” another thing entirely) promise it has many of the same health-promoting properties of its verdant counterpart, green matcha....

Fungal acne is actually a whole other category—and isn’t even acne at all, to begin with. It was given the moniker of “fungal acne” because of the appearance (it looks very similar to acneic breakouts), but as dermatologists will tell you, they’re very different things. Here’s how to spot the difference: “Pityrosporum folliculitis manifest as small red bumps centered around hair follicles,” Marcus explains. “Unlike typical acne, fungal folliculitis can itch....

If you’re looking to get rid of old CDs or DVDs, the trash can should be the last resort. Since these discs are made mostly of durable polycarbonate plastics, they’ll take thousands, if not millions, of years to decompose in landfills. Though slightly time-consuming, you can list them on community resale platforms like Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist (or BuyNothing or freecycle if you’re not looking to make money off of them)....

Chai is made using different formulas, depending on the region where it is being consumed, but there are a number of standard ingredients: black tea, ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, fennel, clove and black pepper. When analyzing chai’s health benefits, it’s important to examine each ingredient in turn. Though they act synergistically to increase each other’s benefits, the separate botanical components have powerful health benefits on their own. It’s no secret that tea is full of antioxidants....

If you suspect that the guy you’re hanging out with or crushing on isn’t interested in a serious relationship with you, and that’s something that you do want and have been hoping for, it’s best to just ask him about it directly. That’s truly the only way you’re going to get a definitive answer. If the idea of him liking those things feels at odds with what you know about him and his personality, that’s probably a sign that you know on a gut level that he’s not a “relationship guy....
