Filtered Water
Filtered water is so in. With growing concerns about water quality and its impacts on our health, water filtration has become so incredibly important. Check out our favorite water filters that will ease all of your water contamination anxieties through 2024.

Pur has the best filters for your faucets, so you can ensure that every time you wash your hands, fill up your water in the sink or wash your dishes, your water will be clean and purified.
Gut Health
From boosting immunity to aiding in digestion to reducing stress levels to even improving skin care, gut health is all the craze this year as research has claimed it to be the foundation of wellness. Here are some of the biggest trends in gut health we’re predicting this year:
Microbiome Cleansing
Did you know that 100 trillion microbes are living in your gut? This collection of bacteria is called the microbiome, and cleansing it has been shown to improve overall health by eliminating harmful bacteria and boosting beneficial bacteria.
Prebiotic + Probiotic Drinks
From kombuchas to prebiotic sodas, drinks that help improve your gut are so in. Our HQ team loves Poppi.
Digital Detoxing
With the heightened awareness around the impacts of screens on our mental health, digital detoxing is going to be a big trend in 2024. Ditching your cellphone for a scheduled period of time could help decrease stress levels, improve focus, and benefit sleep quality.
Thermal Therapy
With all the trends around cold plunges and saunas, we’re predicting that thermotherapy and cryotherapy will be all everyone can talk about in 2024. Cryotherapy uses almost freezing temperatures to help inflammation, chronic pain, and reduce anxiety while thermotherapy uses high temperatures to relax the body’s muscles, improve blood flow and mental health.
