Organic wine still delivers the healthy effects of resveratrol without the negative impact of pesticides. You can eat, drink and be merry when choosing organic wine. 

5. Adaptogens 

You may not realize it, but adaptogens are found in stress-reducing herbs and mushrooms such as rosemary, goji berries, and spirulina. Added to coffee and teas, adaptogens help you to be focused when tired, reduce stress, and improve your mood. They have been used in Chinese medicine for years. Science has proven the helpful properties of Ayurvedic medicines. 

6. Natural Juice Soda 

A 12-ounce can of regular soda has about 39 grams of sugar. That is the equivalent of over 9 teaspoons of sugar on one serving! Thankfully, you can drink an alternative soda made from natural juice and doesn't contain aspartame or sodium. Make it yourself from fruit and soda water!

7. Milk From Vegetables, Not Cows 

There are many reasons you may choose to not drink cows milk. You might have lactose intolerance, or you follow a vegan diet, or maybe you are concerned about the safety of cow's milk. There are alternatives to cows milk out there, all vegetable-based. Some of the vegetable-based milk varieties include soy milk, coconut milk, and almond milk. Using vegetable-based milk can help you fight heart disease, some cancers, minimize the effects of menopause, lose weight, and decreases the level of bad cholesterol. 

8. Take Yours Black 

Black drinks are a current trend. Activated charcoal is added to coffee, tea, ice cream, and cocktails. The charcoal preserves healthy bacteria assists the kidney's function, decreases your "bad" cholesterol levels, and normalizes the stomach's performance.
