Our Purchases: Health & Wellness
In the constant pursuit of feeling our best, we’ve spent countless hours researching, comparing, ordering, testing and returning products over the years. And of course, once we decided to live on the road full-time, we were then forced to find alternatives for many of the items we’d become accustom to having in a sticks-and-bricks home.
To this day our arsenal of “stuff” continues to evolve as we spend more and more time on the move.
If you’d like to benefit from all of our sweat, blood and due-diligent tears, here’s your chance.
On this page you’ll find almost every single item we’ve ever purchased that relates to Health & Wellness.
If it’s here, that means we were satisfied with it and it ended up being useful in some way.
If it didn’t really work for us, or it downright sucked, you won’t see it here.
Plus, any time you actually click a link and make a purchase, you’re helping to support ATSWG by earning us a sweet commission!
Win. Win. Win. – Michael Gary Scott
