Recently, I met an older gentleman who is a personal trainer for the stars. In our conversation, I asked him questions (shocker!) on what made the biggest difference in his training.

THEN, because my iphone heard the conversation, all of a sudden, all my health and wellness influencers on instagram were highlighting this specific vitamin C!

Smarty Pants Vitamins

Don’t you love how small the world is and how everyone is connected somehow and someway? Well, lo and behold, I recently was introduced to the CEO of my newest find and obsession, Smarty Pants Vitamins. I first came across them at the Chicago Marathon, where they placed a sample of their vitamins in the goody bag from the race expo. Upon trial (I love freebies with good marketing and packaging), I was hooked! These vitamins are delicious, smart, and healthy. Read more to find out about the company from the founder and CEO, Courtney! Thank you, Courtney!

Mercy

Heading to a party tonight but worried that you will be hungover in the morning? Just had a good workout and need an extra boost (more like my reality)? Drink today, save tomorrow! So, drink Mercy!

Mercy

Mercy is a vitamin and amino acid packed, caffeine-free, non-alcoholic, tasty and bubbly drink.  If you are using it for hangover prevention, you are supposed to drink it the night of the par-dy to fortify your body against the damages caused by booze. I was turned on to it by a trainer who drank it after a workout.

Mercy angels

Basically, Mercy contains amino acids, vitamins, anti-oxidants electrolytes and herbal supplements that can either help eliminate toxins produced by alcohol consumption, or just give you a non-caffeinated boost.

Sleek Mercy can. Feminie, chic, sophisticated, delicious, and effective.
