The mind-body connection refers to the connection between our mental and physical health: our mental state affects our physical health, and our physical health affects our mental state. This interaction can create a vicious cycle. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of products to help you on your comprehensive wellness journey. From food and drink to fitness trackers and alarm clocks, we’ve got everything you need.
1. Liquid Infusion Volume Injection Agent

Liquid IV uses Cellular Transport Technology (CTT) to optimize your body’s absorption of fluid and key nutrients more efficiently than H2O alone. Electrolytes like sodium, potassium and magnesium help maintain fluid balance in the body, prevent cramps and support nervous system function from basic reflexes to complex cognitive processes. Energy-boosting vitamins like B3 (niacin), B5 (pantothenic acid), B6 and B12 help maintain alertness and stamina.
Choose a pouch of 14 or 16 bottles, create a bundle for a one-time purchase, or subscribe for up to 30% off, 2% cash back, early access to new products, and more with your free LIV membership.

It’s also great for hangovers or people who just “hate water.”

I love that Factor meals are chef-designed, nutritionist-planned and always made with fresh, never frozen ingredients. These balanced meals contain vitamins, minerals, protein, healthy fats and complex carbohydrates to support cognitive function, energy levels and overall health.
With 6-18 meals in each weekly box, you can maintain your diet, break new ground, or support your fitness plan. With 35 meals that change every week, there’s an option for most lifestyles, plus 55+ extra options for snacks, drinks, and supplements. Best of all, there’s no prep required — just heat and pack. When you sign up, you’ll get 50% off your first box and 20% off your next month.

Great for busy people or those who don’t like cooking.
3. Kombucha

Kombucha is rich in probiotics, which support immune function and healthy gut flora. Research suggests that these beneficial bacteria may enhance mood and cognitive function through the gut-brain axis, a biochemical connection between the digestive tract and the nervous system. The gut, also known as the “second brain,” produces many of the same neurotransmitters as the brain, including mood-regulating dopamine and serotonin (about 90% of serotonin is produced in the digestive tract).
Health-Ade is a popular product that comes in a variety of popular flavors, so you can order a variety pack or save money by subscribing to a 12-pack on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis.

Make your tea time your own “me time.”
4. Coconut Cult Probiotic Yogurt

If kombucha isn’t your thing (pun intended), there are other ways to boost your gut health. Coconut Cult Probiotic Yogurt is a plant-based, artisanal, small-batch yogurt made primarily from organic coconut meat, coconut cream, and coconut water. Known for its extremely high probiotic content, it contains up to 800 billion CFUs (colony forming units) per jar, including 16 custom strains for the highest levels of gut health support.
Choose from a variety of flavors including Original, Chocolate Mousse, Harvest Strawberry, and Orange Dreamsicle, and also enjoy a 10% discount on a monthly subscription.

Noom Move encourages weight loss by delving into the why and what of eating habits and prioritizing the psychology of food over physical activity. Through the app, which can be synced with a smartwatch, a personalized plan is created for you, with daily lessons, quizzes and more derived from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), one of the most effective therapeutic approaches for achieving positive, lasting change.
Noom’s exercise recommendations start with manageable, low-impact activity. Building a routine that includes more intense exercise can come after sorting out your diet, but science has shown that diet should take priority over fitness initially.
Coaches, guides and even fellow “Noomers” are on hand to give you advice and support along your weight loss and health journey. Simply choose a subscription plan and get started right away.

I take it seriously and don’t follow any fad diets or criticise my body shape.
7. Ora Organic Vegan Protein Powder

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and are essential for almost all biological processes. Amino acids combine in various sequences to form proteins, which are essential for the structure, function and regulation of the body’s tissues and organs. Amino acids contribute to the synthesis of hormones and neurotransmitters (which affect mood and cognition), support immune function, provide energy and aid in tissue repair and growth. There are 20 amino acids in total, but our bodies only produce 11. The remaining 9, or essential amino acids, are only found in food.
Depending on your diet, you may need more protein. A protein powder can help fill the gap. Ora Organic Vegan Plant-based Protein Powder is free of additives, gluten, dairy and soy, making it a great choice for vegans (obviously), vegetarians and those with certain allergies or conditions.

Not too skinny or poor, but high in protein.
8. Asakuki Portable Essential Oil Diffuser

One of our favorite essential oil diffusers, this model is super quiet, easy to use, and BPA-free. It’s a multi-functional, small, and powerful diffuser with 7 LED colors and intensities, multiple mist settings to keep your room’s humidity at an optimal 50%, and an automatic shut-off feature to prevent overheating if the tank is empty.
Use as a night light or humidifier to support a healthy skin barrier. Fill your living space with scents that relax, energize and inspire. Aromatherapy balms can ease physical aches and pains and ease the mind.

The DreamCaster Alarm Clock is a long-time favorite at Reviewed. It’s easy to set up and use, has a dimmable display and multiple alarm volumes, a built-in Bluetooth speaker, and a great selection of sleep sounds, including white noise, pink noise, brown noise, rain, thunder, and ocean. Instead of multiple function buttons, a simple dial gives you everything you need to get a good night’s sleep.
And we need sleep. For the mind, sleep supports general cognitive function and health, stabilizes mood, and improves stress and our ability to cope with it. For the body, sleep strengthens the immune system, regulates hormone production, supports a healthy metabolism, helps the body grow and repair, regulates blood pressure, and maintains heart health.
