For your breath, and the planet…GuruNanda Concentrated Mouthwash - We all know that single-use, plastic water bottles have a huge, negative impact on the environment and especially the ocean. But what about other products typically packaged in plastic, like mouthwash? Instead of swigging straight from a regular-sized bottle (and using up that bottle very quickly), you just dilute a few drops of Concentrated Mouthwash into water and then swish. A single two-fluid oz. bottle has as many “servings” as ten 16-oz. bottles of conventional mouthwash. (The bottles are made of recycled plastic.) That means less waste and a smaller carbon footprint. (Bonus: it’s also super portable and TSA-friendly.) Designed by a team of Western and Ayurvedic oral care experts, GuruNanda Concentrated Mouthwash is formulated with seven purpose-driven, sustainably harvested, pure and natural essential oils. The product contains no alcohol, fluoride, preservatives, gluten, or toxic chemicals and it is not tested on animals. Launching exclusively at Walmart.com and Walmart stores nationwide for just $12.78! TSA Friendly!!!

RDCL Radical Elements Superfood Blends are the perfect products to amp up your routine! As we all know, good hydration is crucial, but it’s harder for those of us who don’t really like plain water.
