Between all the cookies, candy canes and cocktails, healthy holiday gifts can be hard to find. Help your friends and family avoid a seasonal slump. Here are some healthy holiday gifts for all ages—perfect for a fit and festive holiday!
Trendy Trackers
From kids to grandparents, there’s a wellness tracker for every age! Wearable wellness devices can count steps, heart rates—even bedtimes!
Holiday Hydration
Water consumption is key to oral and overall health. Give the gift of h2O with a smart water bottle. These gadgets track hydration levels with a sensor and most integrate with a smartphone app. Water bottles also encourage drinking tap water, which has many benefits.
Stocking Stuffer Staples
- Toothbrushes: Buy a basic brush, electric model or even a singing toothbrush! Get kids excited about brushing—stuff their stocking with a toothbrush featuring their favorite character.
- Floss: Pick a traditional minty flavor or go for something more extreme, like cupcake-flavored floss!
- Mistletoe Mouth: Give your significant other a minty mouth with items like gum (look for one that contains xylitol), lip balm or sugar-free mints. Some brands even release limited-edition flavors specifically for the holidays.
Now you’re ready to enjoy a holiday stuffed with smiles. Don’t forget to keep your spot on Santa’s nice list—take care of your teeth by scheduling your annual dental exam with an in-network dentist!
