After six years, Peloton is no longer the only megawatt fitness brand offering at-home spin rides for its customers.

Reverse lunges, yoga poses, family walks, and other light- to medium-impact exercises are great to do during pregnancy (and, honestly, at all other times).

When I received a sample of Cymbiotika Synergy Liposomal Vitamin C ($59) — a liquid supplement that can be added to water, juice, yogurt, or your favorite blended beverage — I figured it was worth a try.
