Especially with the new year, it is common to see or hear of friends and social media influencers alike partaking in the Whole30 challenge. In which, for 30 days, participants refrain from added sugar of any kind (real or artificial), grains, dairy, most forms of legumes, alcohol, and additives like carrageenan, MSG, or sulfites. Many choose this challenge to reset their habits or investigate a food sensitivity, reporting an improvement in energy, anxiety, digestive issues and more since 2009.

Even if you are not interested in the Whole30 diet, we think you’ll like these picks; products made with real, clean ingredients that can be used in a variety of ways.
