The weekend after Thanksgiving is a time for leftovers, when the turkey and stuffing are reinvented for their encore and devoured with abandon. And the week after Thanksgiving is a time for, well... recovery, reacclimating and giving back to our community.

After a weekend full of food and family (and perhaps a zoom-feast…or two?), following Cyber Monday and Giving Tuesday, and as we enter into the final month of a year of unimaginable challenges, we want to encourage you to take some time to give back to yourself, and give back to your body.

And in this world of detoxifying juice cleanses, we have another idea about what giving back to your body can look like. Rather than paring down your diet, we whipped up a different kind of pairing (<see what we did there?) with our friends over at Farm.One. It demands neither fasting nor forgoing; think of this one as fortifying fuel—a potent algal elixir that will boost your microbiome, not disrupt it.
