Grass-Fed Collagen: Collagen supports our skin, hair, nails, joints. Look for one that is grass-fed, odorless, and tasteless. There is only one brand I use. Use code MARLOWE for 10% off

Dark Chocolate Chips: Look for brands sweetened with dates, coconut sugar or pure monkfruit. Here are two of my favorites: Dark Chocolate Chips sweetened with dates and Dark Chocolate Chips sweetened with coconut sugar. If you don’t have chocolate chips on hand, you could chop up a dark chocolate bar instead.

Vitamix: For a high speed blender, I prefer this Vitamix. I used my original one for over a decade and it is sitting in storage waiting for me to return to the states for it! When I moved overseas to Dubai, I needed to get a new one because of the plug / voltage, so I got this one, however, I prefer the original, as I find this one burns out more easily, and also the container is so wide at the bottom, its not conducive to making small portions of things. If you have a large family, though, and always make large batches, this could be a good choice, plus it is sleeker.
