More and more people are sharing their sugar detox methods on social media, which is inevitably making this trend stick.
• Everyone is crazy for cryotherapy. The process is to expose the body to extreme low temperatures (-200 and to -250°F) in a controlled environment to increase circulation, reduce inflammation, and boost cellular regeneration.
