It all began when a dating site called her in to ask her, what makes us fall in love? Fisher didn’t know it then, but this question would prompt her to create the first personality test that was based not on linguistics but rather chemicals in the brain, leading to a better understanding of how our biology shapes our personality. Once you answer the questions, the test tells you which chemicals are more dominant in your brain and, subsequently, what your personality is like as a result....

After bingeing all of her videos one evening (if you’re into beauty, this is a worthy endeavor), I found myself wanting to try out her routine and every one of her product recommendations. Violette’s warm, nonchalant approach to beauty is refreshing, and when it comes to product we align on a natural and efficacy-driven approach. One peep at her videos or Instagram and you’ll see that her skin always looks on point, glowy, and effortless, but don’t let the French vibes fool you!...

Here are the basics on what the law of attraction is, what it isn’t, and how you can use it to achieve your goals. The idea that we attract what we put out has clearly been around since ancient times, and many credit Buddha with first introducing this notion to the world. The law of attraction operates under the following three principles: Like attracts like—even if we’re not conscious of it....

This has made way for a buffet of high-price, low-return products to enter the market and convolute what “wellness” really means—and who has access to it. In the last year, op-eds like Jessica Knoll’s “Smash the Wellness Industry” (which likened wellness culture to diet culture) and Jen Gunter’s “Worshiping the False Idols of Wellness” (which declared that the expensive wellness complex is exploiting gaps left by medicine) have run in the New York Times and stoked the first flames of the wellness backlash into an all-out fire....

So here it is: These are the top spices (and the occasional herb) to foster weight loss and boost your metabolism. All of course while making your meals more flavorful. Capsaicin is known to target the nervous system and has been shown to increase satiety and thermogenesis1 (which refers to your body’s ability to produce heat from burning calories), all of which affect weight loss. In one study of 24 people, researchers investigated the effects of 0....

But as a doctor, viewing the tangible evidence of healthy digestion gives me great pleasure. Sometimes it’s associated with diarrhea that is from either an infectious cause (such as salmonella) or a medical one, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Crohn’s, or ulcerative colitis, and can be thin because the stool hasn’t spent enough time in the colon to bulk itself up. Other times, thin poop occurs because you’re actually constipated and there isn’t enough fiber and water to bulk up the stool....

I adopted a plant-based diet that eliminated all gluten, dairy, processed foods, alcohol, and caffeine—and it helped tremendously in my personal healing process. My energy soared, my immune function improved, and my thyroid and digestive health began to regulate. I’ve written about my brain-fog-busting tonic for helping fight fatigue and promote energy and focus, and now, I want to share another one of my go-to mixtures for when I need a little more calm and balance (and anti-inflammatory properties)—my turmeric and shilajit tonic....
