Welcome to Ben Greenfield's Weekly Roundup!
In this weekly post, I share with you my most interesting discoveries of the week, including the latest news on the fronts of fitness, nutrition, health, wellness, biohacking, and anti-aging research. I also recap my upcoming events and special announcements so you can keep up with opportunities to learn, giveaways, discounts, and more!
New Discoveries
My Cost-Effective (And Equally Potent!) Approach to Detoxifying and Rejuvenating My Skin 🌿💆♂️
If you caught my recent Instagram video with a thick green mask spread across my face and in my hair and wondered, “What on Earth is Ben up to?”—let me explain.
Instead of shelling out hundreds of dollars at a spa every week, I opt for a more cost-effective skincare routine that helps me get a movie star glow (right from the comfort of my own home!).
My go-to? Alitura's Green Clay Mask (use code BG20 to save 20%). This mask is packed with powerhouse ingredients like grass-fed colostrum, ginseng, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), kelp powder, a unique blend of skin care clays from around the world, and more. It’s one of the most effective skincare products I've found, made from entirely natural ingredients—no carcinogens, toxins, or synthetic preservatives. It deeply cleanses, nourishes, and leaves my skin glowing with a noticeable brightness. To dive further into Alitura's unique, specialized, ingredients, check out this podcast episode with Andy Hnilo, Alitura's founder and CEO, who used these same products to recover from facial injuries following an accident.
Next, I reach for the Alitura Derma Roller. I use it with gentle, up-and-down motions to enhance circulation and reduce puffiness. It’s a simple but highly effective tool to boost absorption of the mask's nutrients, promote collagen production, and give my skin a firmer, more toned appearance.
Finally, I can’t forget the Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask (use code GREENFIELD to save 15%). This bad boy has customizable settings for treatment time, brightness, and light type (near-infrared or infrared), making it a perfect way to support youthful-looking skin. With regular, short 10-minute sessions, it helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, evens out skin tone, and boosts your natural glow. Plus, it’s cordless, so I can wear it as I go about my day!
So, that’s my go-to weekly spa hack. I highly recommend it to anyone aiming for younger, healthier skin (no pricey treatments, no leaving the house, just serious results in the comfort of your own home!).

Product Of The Week
::: Save 20% on a Revolutionary “Acid-Proof” Probiotic Technology That Actually Works :::
When it comes to gut health, leaky gut is often the hidden culprit behind issues like embarrassing gas, bloating, and unpleasant bouts of diarrhea or constipation. Many people don’t realize that leaky gut can also contribute to a host of other health challenges, from weakened immunity to unexpected inflammation.
For years, probiotics have been touted as a go-to solution, but there’s a significant flaw: traditional probiotics often get obliterated by stomach acid before they can work their magic in your gut.
Thankfully, Just Thrive’s groundbreaking probiotic uses an “acid-proof” technology that shields these beneficial bacteria from stomach acid destruction, ensuring they reach your gut intact. Just Thrive's technology is also clinically proven to deliver real results, fortifying your gut and reinforcing your immune system in just days.
If you’re tired of gut discomfort and want a reliable, effective solution, you can check out Just Thrive and experience the difference for yourself—don't forget to use code BEN at checkout here for 20% off sitewide!
