Impossible Foods Meat-Free Burger
Anytime you put meat-free and burger in the same sentence, people are going to be skeptical. Silicon Valley startup Impossible Foods is trying to sway that opinion with their plant-based substitute. By ditching the cows, these burgers use 95% less land, 74% less water, emit 87% less greenhouse gases and are free from hormones and antibiotics. Although it sounds too good to be true, these patties are just as juicy as the real thing. They're now available at Manhattan's Momofuku, and to demonstrate just how worthy these burgers are, the restaurants founder chef David Chang, executive chef Matt Rudofker, and CEO and founder of Impossible Foods Pat O. Brown get in the kitchen and cook one up right before your eyes.

The KilgourMD Bundle
Stanford dermatologist Dr. James Kilgour's eponymous hair growth brand, KilgourMD, has been shown to outperform the popular minoxidil, which only works to regrow hair once it's gone. The KilgourMD Bundle, however, puts patients on the offensive, too, providing a dual-acting proactive and reactive solution to hair thinning and hair loss. In clinical studies, the system — which is made from natural, plant-derived extracts and comprises The Prevention Scalp Serum and The Treatment — decreased visible hair fall by up to 30% and stimulated hair follicle growth by up to 200% over two months. Save 15% when bundling.
