The things you use every single day might be the ones quietly hurting you the most.

Not all at once. Not dramatically. Just slowly, over years of daily use. That’s what makes them silent killers.

1. Lip gloss: you’re literally eating it all day. Many formulas contain PFAS (“forever chemicals”), synthetic fragrance, and heavy metal traces.
2. Polyester garments: plastic you wear against your skin for hours, shedding microplastics and often treated with chemical finishes.
3. Non-stick cookware: scratched or overheated coatings can release PFAS-related chemicals straight into your food.
4. Scented candles: that “cozy” smell often comes from synthetic fragrance and phthalates you’re breathing in every evening.
5. Toxic sanitary napkins: some have tested positive for PFAS, dioxins, and fragrance, sitting against one of the most absorbent areas of your body for days every month.
6. Toxic shampoos: fragrance blends, phthalates, and formaldehyde-releasing preservatives, massaged into your scalp several times a week.

The scary part? None of this is on the front of the label.

That’s why I use Ābsorbed. I scan everything, from my makeup to my food, and it tells me what’s in it and whether it’s working against my health or supporting it. No guesswork, no googling ingredient lists in the store aisle.

comment “app” and i’ll send you the link myself

i used to have hobbies. now i investigate ingredient lists like it’s a federal crime scene. 🕵️‍♀️

phthalates in fragrance? formaldehyde in air fresheners? questionable ingredients in my everyday essentials?

suddenly being the girl who reads every label makes a lot more sense.

the goal isn’t to be perfect. it’s to stop being clueless about what we’re using every single day.

comment “APP” and i’ll send you the link to Absorbed so you can start scanning your products too. 💌

still fun. just a little more informed.

comment “ABSORBED” and i’ll send you the app i use to check the ingredients in my products 🤍

i’m 30, and these 6 habits changed my skin:

1. skip the 10-step viral routines. some nights, just kumkumadi thailam or castor oil
2. just 5 minutes a day: face yoga or a gentle massage
3. read your labels. phthalates and synthetic fragrance are linked to hormone issues
4. glowing skin starts on your plate: healthy fats, fiber, protein and real food
5. prioritize 8 hours of sleep. your skin repairs while you rest
6. ayurvedic mukha lepa once a week, a homemade face mask made with kitchen ingredients

That burger isn’t just a burger. It’s a chemical sandwich🍔🧪

Fast food chains like McDonald’s, Burger King, and Chick-fil-A load their food with preservatives, additives, and industrial seed oils. A real burger needs a few ingredients, so why does theirs need dozens?

And those bright drinks kids love? Colored with petroleum-based dyes like Red 40, which carry warning labels in Europe. Here, they’re served to our kids every day.

Read the labels and choose real food whenever you can. 🌿

Locking in for 90 days of better choices.

1. Mindful consumption. Paying attention to everything I bring into my life: food, clothes, water, all of it. My most trusted companion for this is the @absorbed.app , which helps me check what’s actually in the things I use every day.
2. Moving my body. Working out 4x a week, plus yoga 2x a week.
3. Eating clean, eating mindfully. Even when I’m eating out, I’ll balance my plate. And yes, I’m still having dessert.
4. Meditating daily. No matter where I am.
5. Walking my ass off.

Who’s locking in with me?

You’re not lazy. Your mitochondria might be starving

Your mitochondria are the tiny engines inside every cell, turning what you eat into usable energy. When they run well, you feel it: steady focus, real stamina, an even mood. When they don’t, no amount of coffee truly fixes it.

The catch is they don’t run on « calories. » They run on specific nutrients. Here’s a full day built to feed them.

BREAKFAST — switch on energy production
• Pomegranate (1/2 cup arils): urolithins trigger the cleanup of old, inefficient cells
• Eggs (1-2): choline keeps your cell membranes healthy
• Beetroot (1 small): nitrates help your cells use oxygen better
• Matcha (1 cup): EGCG flips on your body’s energy switch (AMPK)
• Creatine (3-5 g): recharges cellular ATP for quick bursts of energy

LUNCH — fuel the machinery
• MCT oil (1-2 tsp): turns into ketones for clean, efficient ATP
• Salmon (100-150 g): omega-3s keep your mitochondria working
• Black beans (1 cup): resistant starch feeds your good gut bacteria
• Hemp seeds (1-2 tbsp): an ideal omega ratio for your cells
• Spirulina (1-2 tsp): phycocyanin shields cells from free-radical damage

DINNER — protect and restore
• Extra virgin olive oil (1-2 tsp): polyphenols guard mitochondria while you recover
• Purple sweet potato (1 medium): slow carbs top up your energy overnight
• Mushrooms (100-150 g): ergothioneine buffers oxidative stress
• Edamame (1 cup): plant protein renews mitochondrial enzymes
• Bone broth (1 cup): amino acids help tissue and cell repair

The opposite of this? A « clean energy » drink that spikes cortisol and insulin instead of feeding a single cell. Real fuel comes from food.

Want to know if what you’re eating, drinking, or using is actually feeding your cells or draining them?

Comment app and we’ll send you your own scanner.

Save this for your next grocery run 🛒

Your bread knows where you live.

That is not a metaphor. Many everyday foods are made from two recipes: one for the shelves of Europe, one for the shelves of America. The name on the package stays the same. The ingredient list does not.

The numbers behind it: The Pew Charitable Trusts estimates about 10,000 substances are allowed in the US food supply, and roughly 1,000 of them were self-affirmed as safe without direct FDA review. The EU approves a few hundred food additives. The gap shows up in specifics. Citrus Red No. 2, a dye the FDA permits only on the skins of mature oranges, is not allowed in the EU and is classified by IARC, the WHO’s cancer research agency, as possibly carcinogenic. Azodicarbonamide, a dough conditioner still legal in US bread, is banned in the EU, UK and Australia. Potassium bromate, banned in the EU, UK, Canada and China, remains federally legal in US flour. Titanium dioxide was removed from EU food in 2022 and is still permitted here. The story turned vivid this June, when Norway’s national football team shipped about 2,200 pounds of its own food to the 2026 World Cup in America.

Here is the hopeful part, because there is one. This is not a story about poisoned shelves. It is a story about information, and information is the one ingredient you can always add. Regulators are moving too: the FDA revoked Red No. 3 in January 2025, and California bans potassium bromate from 2027 under the California Food Safety Act, AB 418. You can move faster than they do, one label at a time. Progress over perfection.

If you want to know which version of a food you are holding, that is exactly what our scanner reads. Comment “app” and we will send you the link. And follow @absorbed.app for the rest of this series.

Saying “just wear cotton” sounds simple.

But simple isn’t the same as conscious.

Natural doesn’t automatically mean untouched.
And organic doesn’t automatically mean optimal, especially in activewear.

At MĀIKA, we believe clean is a system.

Fiber.
Processing.
Dye.
Performance.

That’s why we’re building differently.
