Rhubarb is one of those quintessential spring and summer vegetables: bright pink, bitter stalks that pair amazingly with strawberries. While rhubarb is known for its bright color and bitter flavor, its health benefits typically go unsung.

Some days it’s easy to hop on your Peloton bike and start pedaling, other days you’re left wishing Peloton instructor Ally Love‘s bubbly energy could just rub off on you already.

This summer, we’re all about bike shorts. Not only are they great options for when the temperature heats up and you’re engaging in some sweaty workouts, they’re also amazing basics.

For as long as I’ve been getting my period, I have almost exclusively used tampons to manage my flow, save for a panty liner on particularly light days. They have certainly served me well (I rarely deal with leaks!), but I’ve been interested in switching to, or at least trying, a menstrual disc for a
