SOLSHINE: While too much indoor limited-spectrum light can disrupt our health, natural full-spectrum light supports mood, immunity, and the circadian rhythm. Unlike common SAD lights and conventional full-spectrum lights, SolShine's light systems include the ‘fullest’ spectrum visible, as well as essential, invisible near-infrared light (NIR) and trace ultraviolet (UV) light. Use these devices to fix your circadian rhythm and properly stimulate your brain's SCN, in a manner like that of the natural spectral diet that’s essential for optimum metabolic function! Get 10% off with the code MELANIEAVALON at melanieavalon.com/solshine.

ION LAYER: NAD+ is a coenzyme that plays a key part in many cellular processes, including energy production and DNA repair. NAD+ levels are depleted by things like stress, aging, alcohol, travel, and lack of sleep. Boosting NAD+ levels can help support energy, cognitive function, metabolic health, and even longevity! Ion Layer provides easy, affordable access to NAD+ patches! Get $100 off with the code MELANIEAVALON at melanieavalon.com/ionlayer.
