As you know, turmeric in America is really having a moment. A very extended, aggressive, wellnessy moment. In fact, it might finally be waning on the trend cycle, but for us, it’s an ingredient we will champion long after the internet tires of it as the newest “it” fad.

We’re not going to try to sell you on therapy. Because trying to convince you to see a therapist is like a nutritionist trying to convince us to drink more water; we already know it’s a proven necessity. We know it’s good for us. We know it’s an inconvenient lifestyle change that requires at least some effort for some seemingly intangible (but actually incredibly concrete) benefits that we’ll reap at a vague point in the future.
But often, finding the right therapist isn’t merely a minor inconvenience, but an actual deterrent from seeking out the help we need. And it starts with the process of just finding any therapist, which will invoke more Googling than those random pains fueling your health anxiety (just a little joke for my fellow hypochondriacs!).

We’ve got a routine around here whenever someone starts to feel a cold coming on. We boil up a pot of water for our tea infused with Echinacea. We grab fistfuls of zinc lozenges, because, those are supposed to work, right? And if we have any on hand, we top it all off with a glassful of NUUN Immunity, a fizzy alka seltzer like tablet chockfull of things like turmeric, ginger, elderberry and yet more Echinacea.
I don’t know if any of this works, but we all feel like it does, so we soldier on with our approach, cold season after cold season.
We’re probably like most families when fall rolls around and the viruses start to proliferate: relying on a combination of old wives’ tales and traditions in order to fight off the germs. Many of us swear by these remedies, but which of them really holds water? Let’s break it down:
