Sometimes called the drumstick tree, Moringa is known as a superfood in The Philippines, Ethiopia, India and some parts of Europe. It&#8217;s packed with vitamins A, C, B6, plus magnesium, riboflavin, iron, and protein. Proponents say moringa the next matcha, promising a sweeping array of health benefits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can buy moringa powder and then add it to your salad dressings, soups, breads and even your drinks.

According to Ayurvedic medicine, good health is achieved through balance of mind, body and spirit, along with a connection to nature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Practitioners of Ayurveda take a holistic approach to health. Lifestyle changes might include a change in diet, sleeping and even removing stressors from your life. There is no handbook, however. An Ayurvedic practitioner designs a custom program for the patient, with the aim of addressing the root causes of that person&#8217;s imbalance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That all sounds pretty mysterious, but this is a health system that&#8217;s passed the test of time. It&#8217;s been popular and successful for thousands of years in Eastern cultures. Perhaps it is the modern age of over-stimulation in Western cultures that&#8217;s piqued interest in Ayurveda&#8217;s promise of mind-body balance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Responsible keto diet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>No doubt you&#8217;ve heard of the keto diet, which involves eating low-carb, high-fat meals to send your body into fat-burning mode. Celebrities like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/tvshowbiz\/article-6986019\/Jenna-Jameson-celebrates-insane-weight-loss-one-year-Keto-diet.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jenna Jameson<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> swear by the keto diet, while the medical community questions keto&#8217;s long-term impacts.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even before that debate is settled, the keto diet is evolving. The latest iteration is called Eco-Keto, which focuses on sustainability. Eco-Keto still follows the low-carb, high-fat menu plan, but they do it with locally sourced and cruelty-free ingredients. That means avoidance of mass-produced animal products like milk and cheese. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Getting high on health<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"736\" height=\"1128\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/health-wellness-trends-CBD.jpg\" alt=\"CBD oils on leaf background\" class=\"wp-image-126752\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/health-wellness-trends-CBD.jpg 736w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/health-wellness-trends-CBD-196x300.jpg 196w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/health-wellness-trends-CBD-294x450.jpg 294w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Cannabidiol or CBD, is a hemp or cannabis compound that is non-intoxicating, but effective at reducing addiction, inflammation, pain, anxiety, and stress.

Non-invasive body contouring<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As with fashion, health and fitness trends often contradict themselves. In one season, we might see bold patterns as popular as subtle neutrals.
