Addictive Wellness Discount Code for my community: 

If you love chocolate and want to add more adaptogens to your life, get yourself some Addictive Wellness and make sure you use code BREAKFASTCRIMINALS to get 15% off. If you want to keep eating chocolate and reduce the amount of sugar you consume at the same time, this is perfect! I love the Addictive Wellness subscription with a variety of chocolate flavors, and my favorite flavor at the moment is BEAUTY with Mucuna, Tremella Mushroom, Chaga Mushroom and Blue Butterfly Pea Flower. This chocolate suits most dietary restrictions as it is vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, paleo, keto and nut-free.
