Retirement Is No Longer Enough Today
For a long time, retirement was seen as a promise. A promise of rest after a lifetime of work, of minimum financial stability, and of time finally freed from professional constraints. This reassuring vision was deeply rooted in the collective imagination. You worked, you contributed, and then you enjoyed.

The Second Brain: How the Nervous System Affects Digestion
Listen, something I don’t think we talk about enough on this platform is digestion - and it’s not for lack of desire to talk about it! Obviously all dietitians are trained in digestive function and medical nutrition therapy for concerns regarding digestion, but not all of us develop special focus in this area (although given how much work the gut does for us, it’s hard not to have some sort of daily discussion around it). So let’s expand on this, and talk about an area I have been loving working in lately - neurogastroenterology!

Why Minimal Skincare Routines Are Winning in 2026. AI-Generated.
If you had told me a few years ago that my skincare routine would shrink to just three or four steps, I probably wouldn’t have believed you. Like many of us, I went through the ten-step routine phase, the acid-everything phase, and yes — the “TikTok made me buy this” phase too.

Fast Track one Day Detox Diet: Better Slow Down on the Detox Claim
Promise of a Quick Diet Through Detox Ann Louise Gittleman’s fad diet, The Fast Track One-Day Detox Diet, has a misleading title. The diet doesn’t take one day to complete, and it’s more about flushing “toxins” from the body. It may have short-term success as a weight loss program, but this diet depends too much on the concept of detoxification -- which has never been scientifically proven to be beneficial.

Making Meaningful Connections as a Senior
As we grow older, social circles often become smaller. Opportunities to meet new people tend to fade, not because the desire disappears, but because the contexts that once made encounters natural slowly vanish. Many seniors still feel the need to share, to talk, to laugh, to build a connection — whether friendly, emotional, or romantic — yet they no longer know where or how such encounters can happen.

Finding Balance During Seasonal Depression
Seasonal depression affects a lot of people. According to Mental Health America, 5% of the U.S. population deals with this yearly mental anguish – and, while that might not seem like much, that actually equals out to around 17 million people. That’s millions of people feeling down when the weather changes. And, though Seasonal Affective Disorder, SAD, can happen in the warm months too, we tend to hear more about it in the winter. This is likely because we’re getting less natural vitamin D, which we absorb through our skin when the sun is out. We’re spending less time outside because it’s cold out, and the sun is appearing less because of all those clouds!

Day 4 of Quitting. Top Story - January 2026.
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
