These Custom Vitamin Packs Deliver the Nutrition Your Body Actually Needs

Although we have more information available at our fingertips than ever before, there is no shortage of fad diets out there — nor is there any shortage of widely advertised supplements that promise to fight everything from cancer to aging. It’s easy to fall victim to scams (not to mention choice paralysis) when trying to sort through the ocean of dietary advice out there – much of it very good, but much of it bad to the point of being potentially harmful — but the simple fact is that there remains no one-size-fits-all solution to health. Everyone needs a personalized diet paired with a good supplement regimen to match, and Persona Nutrition can provide exactly that.

Your body’s chemistry, composition, and metabolism are not 100% identical to those of anybody else on the planet, and that’s true even without considering any particular health concerns you might have that are also unique to you (such as pre-existing conditions, allergies, personal fitness goals, stress levels, and so on). A vitamin stack that works well for someone else will likely not be optimal for your own body, and if your supplement regimen isn’t tailored to you, you may be wasting money on things you don’t really need while completely missing out on things you do. This is even more likely if you use one of the many pre-made multi-supplement packs on the market today.

Persona Nutrition understands this problem and offers a novel solution: Simply take this free five-minute personal assessment right from the comfort of your computer or mobile device and Persona will compile a custom vitamin stack made just for your body’s needs. This online assessment was designed by Persona Nutrition’s in-house team of expert nutritionists and uses a science-based approach backed up by a mountain of research and the decades’ worth of experience of the Persona medical advisory board.

Persona’s assessment algorithm analyzes your specific health concerns, lifestyle, goals (such as weight loss or better sleep), daily habits, and more and then puts together a completely personalized vitamin pack of high-quality supplements. This assessment also takes into consideration things such as allergies or other conditions you may have, drugs you are taking, and so on, ensuring that your vitamin pack contains nothing that will react negatively with your current medications. Your supplement pack will then be automatically delivered right to your door on a regular basis — no extra effort or online orders required on your part.

As a nice bonus, Persona Nutrition is also offering a 50% discount on your first supplement pack shipment if you sign up now and take your own five-minute personal assessment. All of the vitamins, minerals, and herbs used in Persona Nutrition’s products are sourced and manufactured according to the strictest standards as well, so you can trust that you’re getting some of the safest and purest supplements available today.

Forget wine — Beer and cheese is an unbeatable combination
Put the corkscrew away and crack open a cold one
Beer and cheese

When one hears the term cheese pairings, wine is the beverage that most often comes to mind, we'd wager. Because, of course, it is. The pairing of wine and cheese is as classic a coupling as peanut butter and jelly, bacon and eggs, or chocolate and strawberries. They're meant to be together. But that certainly doesn't mean that wine is the only adult beverage that can dance an alluring tango alongside everyone's favorite dairy product. Beer, as humble as its reputation can be, is also a beautiful balance to cheese's immense offering of flavors. While some may think of beer as not being as multi-dimensional and varied in its palate-pleasing capabilities as wine, this is not the case - especially now that we live in a world with so many exquisite craft beers, stouts, and lagers.
Of course, another classic accompaniment to cheese is bread or crackers. Why might that be, one might ask. Is it because we're simply in need of a starchy vessel to usher the cheese into our mouths? The answer is actually a bit deeper than that. Starches like bread and crackers are made from the same yeasty ingredients as beer, so their pairing makes perfect culinary sense.
This isn't to say, though, that one can simply pick up a hunk of cheddar and crack open a Budweiser and expect culinary artistry. The science is a bit more nuanced than that, so we're here to help you find the best pairings for your favorite beers and cheeses.

Mijenta Cristalino

If you’re new to tequila, you might not know all the terms. Even if you’re just a beginner, you probably know all about blanco, reposado, añejo, and maybe even joven. But chances are, you’re not familiar with Cristalino tequila. This reasonably contemporary style is simply añejo tequila that’s been charcoal filtered to remove its natural caramel color and various impurities.

The style is more than just a little popular. It’s actually the fastest growing style of tequila according to Nielsen data. The newest brand to get in on the Cristalino trend is Mijenta.

You may not dislike IPAs as much as you think — you’ve just tried the wrong type
There's much more to the IPA than bitter hop bombs
Beer

The IPA has been described as the cilantro of the beer world. It’s assumed by some novice drinkers that you either love it or hate it. On one hand, it’s one of the most popular beer styles in the American craft world. It’s loved by many drinkers for its liberal use of hops and fresh, crushable flavor profile.

But haters of the style dislike it because they have an assumption that all IPA beers are aggressively hopped and uncomfortably bitter. While there are IPAs that fit that criterion (and fans of that style can’t get enough of them), there are also a handful of other types of IPAs to fit any palate.
