There's no shortage of ways to boost your longevity — even during peak holiday season.
SuppCo, a supplement tracking company, told Business Insider that it saw an almost-100% spike in cocoa extract being used in supplements over the past year.
Part of the appeal is the process of stirring a cozy drink instead of popping another multivitamin. "You're creating an experience out of your supplement," Jordan Glenn, the head of science at SuppCo, told Business Insider.
While drinking a multi-supplement concoction can feel like a fun solution to capsule fatigue, he said it doesn't necessarily make the most sense, from a health standpoint. Supplement-infused hot cocoa can be pricey — some breaking down to about $2 a cup — with lower-than-recommended doses of the supplements in question.
Business Insider's Julia Pugachevsky will go even further and say: let holiday treats be holiday treats.
