2026 hit and “clean living” is no longer on trend. In a fast-growing culture shift where drinking green juice and tracking sleep is out, while smoking cigarettes is apparently cool again, Helene Kusman weighs in on the rebellion against diet culture, biohacking and healthy living that has the pendulum swinging hard in the opposite direction.
Helene breaks down what’s really behind this trend, why so many women feel burned out by wellness, what orthorexia and an unhealthy obsession with clean living looks like and how to find balance between both extremes.
