#153 - Revolutionize Your Energy and Anti-Aging with These Unexpected Supergreens! Interview with Catharine Arnston from ENERGYbits

In this episode of Pretty Well, we’re joined by Catharine Arnston, the founder of EnergyBITS, the company that’s making algae cool—no, seriously. We talk about how algae (in the forms of chlorella and spirulina) is the original superfood, packed with nutrients that will have you feeling like you can take on the world without drinking your third espresso of the day.

Catharine explains why these tiny green tablets have incredible superpowers like: boundless natural energy, power-packed protein, and unparalleled anti-aging. Spoiler alert: they also help you detox and may even prevent hangovers!

We also dive into the science of algae, how it’s revolutionizing the wellness industry, and why you should be swapping out your energy drinks for something that’s, you know, actually good for you.

Whether you’re already into green powders or you’re just here to learn how chlorella and spirulina can make you feel like a superhero, this episode will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about energy. Tune in for an algae-fueled chat that’s surprisingly fun (and surprisingly good for you).

#151 - Wondering Where Your Energy, Youthful Skin, and Resilience Went? The Secrets of Chlorophyll You May Be Missing

Ever feel like your body’s running on low battery—and your skin, energy, and mood are paying the price? Chlorophyll might be the glow-up you didn’t know you needed. In this episode of the Pretty Well Podcast, I’m diving into 7 surprising (and slightly magical) benefits of this green superfood—from boosting energy and skin glow to reducing inflammation and, yes, even making your armpits smell less like a gym sock.

If you’ve seen chlorophyll all over TikTok and wondered whether it’s hype or health gold, this one’s for you. We’ll dig into why chlorophyll is trending (and whether it’s actually worth the hype), how it supports detox, energy, and skin, and why your mitochondria are silently begging for it. Tune in and learn why this green machine might be your new favorite health hack—and why your mitochondria will want to write me a thank-you note.
