BONCHARGE BLUE LIGHT BLOCKING GLASSES

One of the things I use every single day of my life without exception is blue-light blocking glasses. I've found them to be key for regulating sleep, reducing anxiety, and so much more. I interviewed Andy Mant - founder of BonCharge -  on The Melanie Avalon Biohacking Podcast, and learned so much about why that is (and also how I was possibly wearing my glasses "wrong"!) Plus, did you know the majority of blue light blocking glasses on the market don't block their purported wavelengths, and that you actually want to use different types of glasses depending on the time of day, season, and your personal body? Did you know just a tiny exposure to artificial light can completely offset your circadian rhythm? You do NOT want to miss this fascinating conversation - it might just be a game changer for you!

SLEEP

Sleep is soooo important for health! It is one of the MAIN things I "biohacking," and with these techniques, I've even able to combat my insomia and radically improve my sleep quality! Of course, I always use blue light blocking glasses (see above), blackout curtains (below), my Ooler (below), and red light in the evening galore! 

OOLER:  Use this pad to perfectly regulate your sleep temperature! Get rid of shivers, night sweats, everything!! Melanie will NEVER stop using this one!! Shop at melanieavalon.com/chilisleep with the code CUBE20 for 20% off the Cube Sleep System, OOLER15 for 15% off the OOLER sleep system, and/or CHILIBLANKET10  for 10% off the chiliBLANKET sleep system.

Dr. Kirk Parsley's Sleep Remedy: This is the ultimate sleep supplement!! It was developed by Dr. Kirk Parlsey after years of research and experimentation to naturally restore sleep to the sleep-deprived, insomniac Navy Seals. Rather than knocking you out with drugs, this simply provides the necessary neurotransmitters and nutrients in the perfect amounts to naturally support your body's sleep process. I recommend the unflavored Sleep Remedy Capsule versions, which contain NO fillers! You can start small, and titrate up as needed. (Rather than taking the recommended multi-capsule dosage, I've actually personally found the best effects with a mere 1/4 - 1/3 of a capsule! Oh hey sleep efficiency AND money saving!!) Use the code MELANIEAVALON for more savings. Yey yey. 

Bearaby: Sleeping with a weighted blanket mimics the feeling of being held, encouraging more restful, sound sleep! Except they can get hot, which is why they didn't work for me in the past. Then I found Bearaby! It's a weighted blanket that is unlike any other in the market - made completely of sumptuous sustainable materials - you'll never find fillers or beads in a Bearaby Napper. Medical research shows that sleeping under weight makes us sleep and feel better. The Nappers are available in three weights, 15lb, 20lb and 25lb. They have different versions, but I got the Tree Napper which is made from plant-based silky-soft, natural eucalyptus fibers, and specifically cooling! Get it at melanieavalon.com/bearaby

NICETOWN Truly Blackout Drapes for Living Room, Heavy-Duty Full Light Shading Curtain Set with Black Liner Backing: These curtains are amazing. I researched blackout curtains for soooo long, and am SO happy I found these! They block essentially 100% of the light, and are super thick and luxurious, like hotel curtain! They also have no toxic smell!

INFRARED SAUNA

I originally bought a Sunlighten Solo Infrared Sauna (which is great for apartments and smaller spaces!)  a year ago to deal with mercury toxicity. Little did I know it would be one of the most profound investments in my health of my life, and truly the gift that keeps on giving! As we discuss in  the The Melanie Avalon Biohacking Podcast  episode with Sunlighten founder Connie Zack, not only can a daily sauna session detox your body, relieve pain, strengthen your heart, and even burn calories, sauna is also amazing for immunity! By activating heat shock proteins and raising your core body temperature to an artificial "fever," you can effectively combat viral infections you may have been exposed to that day! And perhaps the best part? It feels amazing! Infrared sauna heats you from the inside out (rather than outside in like traditional heat saunas), giving you all the heat benefits without feeling hot and drained!Want To Bring Your Own Sauna Home???

GRASS-FED ANCESTRAL ORGANS

These grass-fed, pasture-raised organ supplements from New Zealand are simply AMAZING. They contain NO fillers, and technically, they’re “food!” In the Chinese medicine tradition, think of this as “like supports like!” Taking these supplements can help fill in nutritional deficiencies, without the need to actually eat beef organs (for the squeamish among us!) I cannot recommend these enough!!

DRINKS

DRY FARM WINES

DRY FARM WINES: For the ultimate health and Paleo-friendly wines,  look no further than Dry Farm Wines. I'm obsessed with this company! Ya see,  many wineries (particularly in Europe) implement organic practices without the certification, due to financial costs, lack of need, or even the stigma of “organic” wines. Dry Farm Wines travels the world and conducts lab tests to find small, sustainable wineries which produce all natural, organic wines with no additives or pesticides, and which are low alcohol (<12.5%), sugar free (<1 g/L), and mycotoxin-free!

OTHER MEAT AND SEAFOOD

In the ideal world, we'd be getting our food from local farmers implementing sustainable, organic, practices. Still, there's a lot to be said for making things #easy. So here are my favorite accessible, go-to meat and seafood brands available in many mainstream stores. Keep in mind that, since both toxins and fat-soluble vitamins are stored in fat, it's more important to buy organic, grass-fed/pastured/etc. versions of meat for fattier cuts. For fish, I recommend referring to the Environmental Defense Fund's Seafood Selector for the fish species currently lowest in mercury, and high in sustainability. Want an extensive lowdown on farming methods and the meaning of labels? Check out What When Wine!

SEAFOOD: Costco's (Kirkland) (Wild Caught) Seafood (I love their Cod, Mahi-Mahi, and Scallops!), Orca Bay (Wild Caught) Seafood , All  wild-caught, low-toxin species frozen fish at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's (just check for additives!), Cox's Wild-Caught Shrimp (available at Costco and Whole Foods) NOTE: For all seafood, choose low-toxin species, per the Environmental Defense Fund's Seafood Selector.) 

The Better Fish Barramundi: My FAVORITE fish!! Australis utilizes sustainable practices to raise delicious barramundi fish with fantastic omega-3 levels, tested to be free of mercury and other toxins! They raise their fish responsibly, paying the utmost care to animal health, employee safety, and environmental sustainability, flash freezing their fish at peak freshness! Their barramundi are easy to cook, and even kids love the mild and buttery taste! You can find Australis Barramundi in the freezer section of many fine grocery stores, including Whole Foods! Check out the betterfish.com for more information, and specifically www.thebetterfish.com/why-barramundi for all the awesome benefits!

SAFETY

SIMPLISAFE (FREE SECURITY CAMERA!)

After being broken into and having my computers, hard drives, and TV stolen from my apartment, I felt a huge sense of loss, insecurity, and violation. I just want to tell the entire world to get security for your home ASAP! I did a lot of research and chose SimpliSafe. You can cutomize your system to fit your home, and it’s sooo easy to set up! It's a breeze to use, and has an amazing app to keep things monitored!  Unlike other security systems, you own the system once you buy it, and can take it with you wherever you live!
