🍳Rethinking Breakfast: Eggs Are In, Fear Is Out

Remember when eggs were public enemy #1? Yeah, about that... turns out we've been blaming the wrong guy this whole time. Maximum effort, minimal accuracy.

Here's What Actually Went Down

Researchers at the University of South Australia just dropped a study that flips decades of breakfast guilt on its head. The real heart disease culprit? Saturated fat—not the cholesterol in your morning eggs.

In their randomized controlled trial, 54 healthy adults rotated through three different diets for five weeks each. The results:

• Eating 2 eggs daily on a low-saturated-fat diet reduced LDL cholesterol (the "bad" kind)

• Egg-eaters had lower LDL than those on an egg-free diet

• Eggs are high in cholesterol but low in saturated fat, and that combo matters

Cardiovascular disease kills 19.8 million people annually; 32% of all deaths worldwide. Lead researcher Dr. Jon Buckley nailed it: "It's not the eggs you need to worry about, it's the extra serve of bacon or sausage."

While you're winning at breakfast with those eggs, add Organifi Red Juice to your routine. Packed with beets and acai, it supports healthy circulation and cardiovascular function… the perfect sidekick for your heart. Because even superheroes need backup.

Science: 1. Outdated dietary myths: 0.

🚿Hot vs. Cold: What Your Skin Really Wants

If you’ve been shocking your face with ice water or blasting it with shower-lava… your skin would like to opt out. Dermatologists agree: lukewarm water is the real hero of healthy skin.

Your skin barrier is the VIP security guard of your face — and extreme temps make him quit mid-shift.

Cold water perks:
• Reduces puffiness + acne inflammation
• Boosts circulation for a temporary glow
• Can slightly tighten skin

Hot water problems:
• Damages your skin barrier
• Strips protective oils
• Can worsen redness and clog pores (yes, heat can narrow them)

Your No-Fluff Face Routine:

1. Wash hands (you touched your phone... case closed).

2. Cleanse with lukewarm water + gentle cleanser.

3. Massage with fingertips only — no scrubby weapons.

4. Rinse thoroughly.

5. Pat dry, moisturize while skin is damp.

6. Twice a day max

Skin health isn’t just topical — it’s nutritional. Organifi Collagen supplies hydrolyzed collagen + nutrients that support skin elasticity, hydration, and repair from the inside out. Think of it as skincare that gets past the surface.

🍼 Adult Pacifiers Are Trending—Here's Why Your Dentist Is Cringing

If you told me five years ago that grown adults would be sucking on pacifiers to deal with work stress, I'd have thought you were joking. But here we are. Welcome to 2025, where nothing makes sense and everything is fine.

Many young adults in China are buying adult-sized pacifiers to cope with stress, insomnia, and burnout. The trend is now spreading to TikTok, with Americans using them during traffic jams, work meltdowns, and sleepless nights.

Some psychologists call this "regression" a coping mechanism where people return to comforting childhood behaviors during overwhelming stress. The sucking motion activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which can temporarily reduce anxiety and promote calm.

But here's the problem: adult mouths aren't designed for pacifiers. Dr. Tang Caomin, warns that prolonged use can misalign teeth, damage jaw joints, alter swallowing patterns.

What to Do Instead

• Try breathwork: Box breathing (4-4-4-4) activates the same calming response without the choking hazard

• Use a weighted blanket: Provides deep pressure stimulation that mimics safety and comfort

• Sip on Organifi Gold: Turmeric and reishi mushroom support relaxation and sleep quality—no silicone nipple required

Adult pacifiers: Hard pass.
Stress management: Yes.
