Kai Trump at Erewhon: Thoughts on that viral grocery trip?
I saw that video too! The prices at Erewhon are insane. I don't get why people spend $20 on a smoothie when you can make a healthier one at home for a fraction of the cost. Her wellness routine seems more about flexing than actual health. Just my two cents.
I mean, Erewhon does have some high-quality stuff, but I agree it's overpriced. I work night shifts so I rely on convenience sometimes, but I'd rather go to a local health food store. Kai's haul looked like a lot of trendy products – the sea moss gel, the collagen, the adaptogens… I bet she's got a wellness coach curating that list.
As a student, I can't even afford to look at those prices lol. But I'm curious – does anyone know if those elderberry gummies she bought are actually good? I've been thinking of adding some immune support to my routine, but I don't want to break the bank. Also, is Erewhon worth visiting at least once for the experience?
Elderberry gummies can be effective for immune support if they have enough active compounds – look for standardized anthocyanins. But many brands overcharge for gimmicks. Kai's video is just a glimpse into influencer culture, not necessarily evidence of what works. If you want value, check out studies on elderberry and find reputable brands with transparent labeling.
