Summertime means fun in the sun— and dehydrating more quickly. When your body becomes a desert, it wreaks havoc on every organ, including your skin.
What can you do to ensure you don’t end up looking parched? Here’s how to hydrate yourself for good skin.
1. Switch Up Your Morning Brew
Have you ever noticed how coffee gets you going — in more ways than one? That’s because caffeine serves as a diuretic, helping rid your body of excess water. The problem is that it can also dehydrate you more quickly. Fortunately, an easy fix benefits your overall health: switch one or more java cups for green tea, containing only a third of this go-juice ingredient.
Swapping a coffee for green tea could reduce the jitters you feel from too much caffeine because it contains theobromine to mitigate the effects. Green tea also contains polyphenols that do everything from safeguarding your tooth enamel against bacteria to protecting your heart and brain from inflammation.
Finally, green tea might help shed those last few pesky summer pounds. It contains EGCG, a potent antioxidant that reduces the amount of adipose tissue or fat your body retains.
2. Find a Bottle That You Love
The bottom line? You aren’t a camel — you can’t store hydration. You need to sip throughout the day to maintain proper levels. How can you make it easier?
Find a water bottle that you adore. Is it crazy to drop more than $50 on such a device? It’s not if you live in a hot climate — or, you know, experience summer — and you appreciate a frosty brew. Some of these gadgets guarantee to keep ice in your drink for up to 24 hours, while others provide snazzy features like built-in Bluetooth speakers for jamming out poolside.
Once you find your dream reusable water bottle, personalize that puppy. Go crazy with stickers, be as loud and political as you like and express yourself. It might sound silly, but you’ll be more likely to sip up if you adore your vessel.
3. Set Reminders
You probably take your cellphone with you everywhere you go. Why not use it to stay hydrated?
You can find oodles of reminder apps, many of them for free. However, there’s probably nothing wrong with the alarm your phone came with pre-installed. When you hear the beep, you take a sip.
4. Add Fruit and Flavor
Plain water leaves a bit to be desired in the flavor department. It might be healthier than cola and sports drinks, but it pales in comparison when it comes to taste.
Fortunately, you can make your brew tastier the healthy way. How? Soak fruit in your pitcher or refrigerator water cooler. Water-soluble nutrients like vitamin C and various B-vitamins infuse your mixture while adding flavor, all without a single extra calorie. If it’s still not sweet enough for you, a few drops of monk fruit transforms it into a fruity ade even your kids will adore.
5. Make It Sparkle
It might sound crazy if this symptom doesn’t affect you — but some people feel physically ill from drinking flatwater. The problem isn’t bacteria in the brew but the lack of carbonation that leaves them feeling queasy.
Researchers have found that drinking Coca Cola helps some people with trouble moving food through their digestive system. They hypothesize that the beverage’s natural pH resembles the gastric acid required for fiber digestion.
However, soda is high in calories and sugar, and many folks cast aspersions on artificial sweetener safety despite FDA reassurances. The answer? Carbonate your water. All it takes is a Sodastream or similar device to add stomach-soothing bubbles that will encourage you to sip more frequently.
Hydrate Yourself for Good Skin
Summertime heat and sun can dehydrate you quickly. Too little water stresses your organs — including your skin.
Follow the above tips to hydrate yourself for good skin. You’ll enjoy a rosier complexion all summer long.

As we approach Pride month, many individuals and brands are taking strides to raise awareness for and give back to the LGBTQIA+ – especially in the face of political attacks against the community. In a noteworthy act, Native, the personal care brand, is donating $50,000 to The Trevor Project in an effort to send a powerful and unified message of love, hope, and support.
In addition, on June 6th, Native will be sponsoring a livestream on Instagram with actress and comedian, Dylan Mulvaney, and supporting an influencer campaign on TikTok titled, “Take Pride in Who You Are.” Dylan will discuss how she’s celebrating Pride, how the significance of Pride has changed for her over the years, and products that have helped her feel her best throughout her girlhood journey.
A recent donation to the LGBTQIA+ community, as revealed today, includes that of Kiva Confections, which continues the flow of love and support to a community that finds itself in the crosshairs of heightened political attacks today. As Pride kicks off, keep an eye out for rallying events and safe spaces, like Dylan’s Instagram Live to learn more and add your own support.

It’s that time of year when summer begins to kick in and Pride is celebrated across the country, and it’s only fitting the leading cannabis edibles brand helps welcome the festivities with some amazing support for the LGBTQIA+ Community.
Kiva Confections, the market leader in cannabis edibles, is celebrating Pride month with the launch of the fifth annual release of the Camino ‘Proud’ Gummy and a $100,000 donation to support the LGBTQIA+ community. The much-anticipated ‘Proud’ Gummy features reimagined packaging and a brand new Passionfruit Punch flavor with limonene and linalool terpenes for a tailored, exhilarating experience.
The donation – the brand’s largest to – will be allocated across four beneficiaries in support of the LGBTQIA+ community, with an emphasis on championing the transgender, nonbinary, and gender-expansive people who are in most need of greater access to essential care. These organizations include:
Originally pioneered in 2018 by Kiva’s lead product developer to pay homage to her LGBTQIA+ community, the beloved and best-selling Camino ‘Proud’ shimmer dusted gummy is dosed at 5 mg of THC per piece, with a total of 100 mg of THC per package. While previous year’s of Camino Proud packaging focused on the celebratory aspects of Pride and the LGBTQIA+ community’s legacy of marches, parades, and protests, this year Kiva has chosen to feature a Bay Area landmark, The Pink Triangle. Since 1996, this symbol has been erected during Pride weekend atop San Francisco’s Twin Peaks. The Pink Triangle brings attention to the past persecution of those in the LGBTQIA+ community and reminds us to ensure that it never happens again.
The limited-edition, iridescent gummies are designed to rally spirits and help individuals stand passionately proud this summer. The Passionfruit Punch Camino will be available for a limited time at select California dispensaries and via Kiva Direct beginning May 20th for $20.

The mushroom market continues to grow at a rapid rate, with the realization of just how much of a superfood fungi can be. In even greater news, access to some of the most nutritious and beneficial fungi is about to get a lot easier!
In early May, Smallhold began delivering locally grown, USDA Certified Organic specialty mushrooms to Southern California. This West Coast expansion, alongside existing farms in Brooklyn and Austin, furthers the five-year-old company’s mission to build a hyper-local solution to a broken global food supply chain.
Smallhold enters the Southern California market by profoundly launching in over 90 stores, including Whole Foods, Erewhon, and Lassen’s. Southern California customers will also be able to order Smallhold mushrooms online via e-commerce suppliers. like Good Eggs, and Imperfect Foods, while acclaimed restaurant Kismet, known for celebrating fresh and vegetable-based Mediterranean-inspired dishes, is officially Smallhold’s first culinary partner in Los Angeles. Amazingly, when COVID first took hold of the country in 2020, Smallhold was on the shelf in a single grocery store in Brooklyn, NY. Now, Smallhold can be found in approximately 400 retailers and restaurants.
The new farm opens in Vernon, California, less than a mile outside of DTLA, bringing increased choice to consumers by growing harder to find mushroom varieties, including organic Lion’s Mane, Blue Oyster, Yellow Oyster, King Oyster, and more. In addition, Smallhold’s regional retail partnerships continue to grow with partners, like Erewhon, Lassens, Good Eggs and Imperfect Foods, along with an expansion of their existing partnership with Whole Foods Market in their 60-store South-Pacific region.
According to Smallhold, the average US mushroom case is dominated by button, crimini and portobellos — completely ignoring an entire kingdom (literally, fungi is a kingdom!) of texture, flavor, and nutrition.
Building a case for sustainability, Smallhold is committed to building hyper-urban farms in key regions and exclusively using compostable cardboard packaging, while it reduces food miles traveled, improves mushroom quality, extends shelf life, and drastically reduces carbon footprint, food waste, and plastic usage. This scalable approach to local, organic farming allows a wide array of specialty mushrooms to be grown, harvested and sold in meaningful quantities directly where consumers live. By comparison, 68% of mushrooms consumed in the US are grown and shipped from Pennsylvania, while Shiitake mushrooms are almost all grown completely off logs originating outside of the US.
“Educating and sparking curiosity about mushrooms is an integral part of our mission,” said Andrew Carter, CEO and Co-founder. “We want people to ask where their food comes from, think about their diet, and reconnect with the planet. This means installing our Minifarms in unexpected places like The Standard Hotel, or having Smallhold mushrooms on the menu at places like Eleven Madison Park—all while concurrently placing locally grown packaged mushrooms in grocery stores across the nation.”
Furthermore, in Los Angeles County, Smallhold continues its practice of hiring locally, always paying above the living wage and partnering with regional non-profits and groups; while also being a trailblazer in the industry, creating an effective circular model for sustainable mushroom farming that relies on and gives back to the very soil their mushrooms grow from.

Known for their modern take on health and wellness supplements, Ritual, the beloved health-meets-technology company with an emphasis on traceability and sustainability, opened their flagship retail store on Abbot Kinney in Los Angeles on May 10th! This retail launch marks the evolution of Ritual, as the brand continues an incredible trajectory of growth, adding more product categories, and investing in human to human interaction.
Just like the company’s product packaging and presentation, the store was creatively designed by the firm Mythology, who have brought the Warby Parker, Away, and Allbirds stores to Abbot Kinney as well. The new Ritual store is divided into spaces to create a sense of discovery as you move through it. There are storytelling and educational moments throughout the space, and a wall devoted to technology, a wall about Ritual’s mission and how habits become rituals, a wall on traceability, and even a giant, life sized capsule created by Warner Bros!
A long way from the days of just offering a daily multivitamin for men and women of different age groups, Ritual has expanded to offering multi vitamins for teens and kids, as well as prenatal, gut health, and protein supplements. With a clean and simple style, Ritual’s supplements are not only eye-catching for their futuristic appearance, but they’re also grabbing the attention of customers who find the products to be incredibly beneficial to their overall wellbeing.
For the first 8 weeks, the brand will be hosting a speaker series on parenthood. The speaker series will delve deep into everything — from registry must–haves, to feeding tips, to sleep training, to maintaining your identity, and everything in between.

Discussing Future of Medicine with Stem Cell Therapies
If you’re looking for something to do next week, here’s a great opportunity! To educate the public and discuss the future of stem cells with the media, Professor Ernst von Schwarz, MD, PhD, FESC, FACC, FSCAI, a world-renowned cardiologist and stem cell research pioneer, will host an event surrounding the release of his new book, The Secret World of Stem Cell Therapy: What YOU Need to Know About the Health, Beauty, and Anti-Aging Breakthrough on May 18th in Newport Beach, California.
The first event took place on May 11th in Los Angeles at the acclaimed American Horror Story mansion, also known as the Rosenheim Mansion, where guests enjoyed appetizers and refreshments. Dr. von Schwarz gave a tour of the home and led a discussion about the promising future of stem cell therapy. He also answered questions about scientific achievements, challenges, public opinion, and other important issues in the world of stem cell therapy. The house was featured in the first season of AHS and is known to fans as the “Murder House.” Although believed to be haunted, the owner spent a full year writing his new book in the basement. Dr. Ernst von Schwarz remarks, “the secrets of the fountain of youth were developed within the walls of the church of the real-life haunted Murder house.” The house itself, which was designed by architect Alfred Rosenheim, was originally built in 1902 and contains details including Tiffany stained glass and Italian brickwork.
What can you expect for the second event?
An open invitation for Dr. Ernst von Schwarz’s book launch party and red-carpet event, also serving as a fundraiser for aid to Ukraine, this star-studded event will feature a red-carpet welcome, a book signing and Q&A, and speeches from several acclaimed doctors in the rejuvenated medicine world with details on the future of stem cell therapies. In addition, celebrities like Josie Davis, Drea De Matteo, Frank Stallone, and Angela Oakenfold are expected to be in attendance. The speaking schedule is as follows:
6:00pm: Welcome Address – Discovering a Cure for Aging with Dr. Paul Bogaardt, MBA, MSC, PhD, HeartStem
6:15pm: Nitric Oxide in Regenerative Medicine with Dr. Nathan Bryan, PhD, University of Texas-Houston
6:30pm: The Ukrainian Medical Mission with Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, MD, Medical News Expert, NY.

According to world-renowned cardiologist and stem cell research pioneer Professor Ernst von Schwarz, MD, PhD, FESC, FACC, FSCAI, who is also the author of the new book, The Secret World of Stem Cell Therapy: What YOU Need to Know About the Health, Beauty, and Anti-Aging Breakthrough, “Stem cell therapy is considered to be the most important discovery in modern medicine, likely bigger than the discovery of penicillin or the detection of the tuberculous bacteria. It is the path to rethinking the traditional dogmas of several pathophysiologic concepts. It has also made us reconsider the definitions and meaning of cell death, processes of aging and degeneration, and the natural course of diseases.”
Dr. Schwarz’s new book highlights the scientific data about the benefits of stem cell therapy and also shines a light on unapproved therapies that lack scientific data but are touted on any Google search. In The Secret World of Stem Cell Therapy, Dr. Schwarz discusses how there are tons of scientific data published about the benefits of stem cell therapy; however, its widespread practical use is intentionally prohibited by government regulators like the FDA to protect patients from unapproved therapies with a lack of large-scale clinical and scientific data.

There is a smell rampant in Los Angeles—it fills the air with a sweet, earthy, herbal and periodically “skunky” smell. It is the smell of Marijuana running through the airstreams of Los Angeles. It all began in November 2016, when the Adult Use of Marijuana Act (Proposition 64) was approved and what was once illegal became legal — and it also became big business. Today, it is reported that there are thousands of unlicensed dispensaries and over 200 licensed. It is with this brief knowledge that we decided to ask an expert about pot. We turned to Geza Frey, Jr. for some answers:
During the lockdown and afterwards, as an industry how as the pot trade fared?
During the lockdown sales soared. The industry was booming and if you needed a job, the cannabis industry was the place for you. Cannabis workers weee labeled essential in the state of California. Since then, sales have slowed a bit and I know that a lot of brands/ dispensaries are in the red these last two quarters.
Where is the greatest concentration of dispensaries?
The Greater Los Angeles area but as cities and states begin to legalize and adopt cannabis, more and more dispensaries are opening. Some of my favorites are in DTLA, Venice, and Fairfax/ Melrose.
What determines price? There seem to be endless kinds of pot?
Indoor flower is the highest quality and most potent
Outdoor is more affordable and less potent
Indoor typically hits higher price points vs outdoor
There are also edibles, concentrates, oils, topicals and more.
What is the good stuff?
Everyone has their preferences and reacts differently to each strain. I love me a good indoor indica dominant strain in the Glue or OG family rolled in a leaf wrap with a glass tip. It’s my version of the canna-cigar
If you are a beginner, what would you recommend?
For beginners I would recommend starting with CDB products and than moving up to 1:1 CBD + THC and than go from there. There are a ton of options it’s best to start small and gradually build up a tolerance/ find out what strains you like the most.
What is the law regarding driving under the influence of pot?
If it is determined that you are driving well high on cannabis you can potentially get a DUI or DWI

Do they have statistics on the people buying as in age, etc?
