At the end of the year, I love to see what our top-selling items are and thought you might be interested too.

Sea moss, year after year, is our biggest seller. Not surprised! Sea moss is chock full of vitamins and minerals and helps the body function better. Our anti-inflammatory sea moss continues to be our #1 seller and flies off the shelf. The elderberry and honey sea moss took over second place, beating our traditional golden sea moss. The sea moss fruit roll ups continue to be a crowd pleaser for its originality and convenience.

The Ginger and Garlic Oxymel continue to hold a space in the top 10 for its cold fighting strength and delicious taste. Similarly, the Liver Cleanse continues to be our top moving tea blend for its ability to quickly detox the body.

Our new item this year, the Tea Tokes, specifically the Slumber edition, has pushed our longstanding Body and Hair Botanical Oil out of the top 10 spot. A wonderful alternative to smoking and va**ng to give the lungs a break.

And can’t forget to mention our top selling tincture, Man’s Best Friend, is hard to keep in stock. Glad to see men looking after their prostate and sexual health.

Excited to see what’s next for 2026!

Ever wonder why you feel so good after a little high-quality chocolate? It’s not just in your head—it’s in your brain chemistry.

Mood Bio-Hack: Raw Cacao

🌿Serotonin + Dopamine: Cacao acts as a natural precursor to these “feel-good” neurotransmitters. It provides tryptophan to help your brain synthesize serotonin for emotional balance, and tyrosine to support the dopamine production needed for focus and motivation.

🌿Sustained Happiness: Unlike the quick “sugar spike” of regular chocolate, the pure compounds in cacao (like theobromine) provide a smooth, long-lasting mood lift without the jittery crash.

🌿The Love Molecule: It contains PEA (phenylethylamine), the same chemical your brain releases when you’re falling in love, triggering a gentle sense of euphoria.

🌿Heart-Brain Connection: High flavanol levels boost blood flow to the brain, clearing out mental fog and supporting long-term neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to stay “young” and adaptable.

Replace sugar-heavy cocoa with raw, organic cacao powder. Your brain will thank you. 🤎

🌿 Prostate & Men’s Vitality Support — Herbal Allies

Herbs don’t “fix” overnight—but they do support the systems involved in prostate health, circulation, hormones, and sexual vitality. Here’s how these plant allies work:

Enlarged Prostate (BPH) Support
• Saw Palmetto Berry – Helps reduce prostate swelling and supports healthy urinary flow
• Pumpkin Seed – Rich in zinc; supports prostate tissue strength and bladder function
• Pine Bark – Improves circulation and reduces inflammation in prostate tissue
• Nettle Root – Supports hormonal balance and helps ease urinary symptoms

Erectile Function & Sexual Vitality
• Asian Ginseng – Enhances energy, stamina, and nitric oxide production
• Tongkat Ali – Supports healthy testosterone levels and libido
• Yohimbe Bark – Increases blood flow and nerve stimulation (use with care)
• Maca Root – Boosts libido, endurance, and overall vitality
• Ginkgo – Improves circulation to pelvic tissues and supports nerve signaling
• Saffron – Supports mood, libido, and erectile response
• Pine Bark – Enhances nitric oxide and blood vessel function
• Muira Puama – Traditional nerve tonic for libido and erectile strength
• Oats (Milky Oats) – Nourishes the nervous system and supports sexual resilience

Prostate health isn’t just about one herb—it’s about circulation, hormones, inflammation, and nervous system support working together.

Most importantly get your prostate checked even if you are in the best of health. Men as young as 40 should get a PSA blood test.

If stress, exhaustion, or burnout has you reaching for stronger supplements—pause for a moment.

When people talk about adrenal fatigue, what’s often happening is HPA axis dysregulation.

HPA axis = hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
It’s the system that connects your brain to your adrenal glands and regulates your stress response, cortisol release, energy, and recovery.

Here’s something important:
🌿 Herbs like Asian ginseng
💊 Vitamins like B12
are stimulating.

They can be helpful in some cases—but when your nervous system is already overstressed, more stimulation can lead to anxiety, poor sleep, crashes, and feeling “wired but tired.”

That’s why these gentler herbal pairings are often more supportive:

🌿 High stress + anxiety + insomnia
Ashwagandha + Skullcap + Lemon Balm

🌿 Burnout + exhaustion + emotional flatness
Milky Oats + Tulsi + Eleuthero

🌿 Wired-but-tired + racing thoughts
Passionflower + Skullcap + Reishi

🌿 Stress showing up in digestion
Lemon Balm + Tulsi + Chamomile

These herbs don’t force energy.
They support regulation, repair, and resilience.

Reminders:
✔️ More stimulation isn’t always better
✔️ Herbs work best when taken consistently
✔️ Sleep, blood sugar, and minerals matter

Hey y’all! 💛 Today we’re breaking down something I see all the time: arthritis — and the herbs that can help calm inflammation, ease pain, and restore mobility naturally.
Arthritis isn’t just one condition….there are many but here are the most common 3.
✨ Osteoarthritis = wear + tear
✨ Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) = autoimmune
✨ Gout = uric acid buildup

From an herbal standpoint, we don’t just treat the joint — we support the liver, kidneys, circulation, and lymph, because when those slow down, inflammation lingers.
Here’s a simple breakdown of what to take + when.

🔥 WHEN YOU’RE IN PAIN OR FLARED UP
• Turmeric — blocks inflammatory pathways, reduces stiffness.Pair with black pepper + ginger to boost absorption. Best for: OA, RA, chronic stiffness.
• Boswellia (Indian frankincense) — reduces swelling + improves mobility. Best for: OA & RA.
• Willow Bark — nature’s aspirin for gentle pain relief.
• Meadowsweet & Devil’s Claw — great for hot, inflamed flare-ups.
• Black Seed (Nigella sativa) — regulates an overactive immune system. Take ½ tsp oil daily with honey/warm water or capsules. You can also massage the oil into stiff joints. Best for: RA, autoimmune joint pain.

💧 WHEN YOU NEED TO CLEAR WASTE + SUPPORT DETOX PATHWAYS
(Think swelling, sluggishness, gouty pain, or “stuck” inflammation.)
• Burdock Root + Dandelion Root — support the liver to process inflammation.
• Nettle Leaf — mineral-rich, anti-inflammatory, gently diuretic.
Great for: RA & gout.
• Celery Seed + Parsley — help the kidneys flush uric acid.
Best for: Gout.
• Ginger + Cayenne — warming herbs to boost circulation if your joints feel cold or stiff.

🧱 WHEN YOU’RE REBUILDING & NOURISHING THE JOINTS
(After the flare quiets down.)
• Horsetail — rich in silica for cartilage + connective tissue.
• Alfalfa — remineralizes joints.
• Ashwagandha — calms inflammation + supports stress-related flare-ups.
• Turmeric + Boswellia (daily combo) — protects cartilage long-term.

Don’t forget to move and stretch daily to keep the circulatory and lymph system moving.

Body Scrub for smooth and even toned skin.

🌿1/3 cup granulated sugar
🌿2/3 cup ground caffeinated coffee
🌿1/3 cup liquid coconut oil
🌿1/8 cup honey
🌿1/4 cup of body wash

These are general measurements. Feel free to adjust to your liking.

Exfoliate weekly for softer and smoother skin. May help with hyperpigmentation. Exfoliation is especially useful in the winter when the air gets drier and your skin gets a little rougher. Be careful not to use on sensitive areas (e.g., near the eyes or internally)

Happy exfoliating!
