Wondering what to get for the health-conscious people in your life? We asked Registered Dietitians on the WAG Staff what they’re asking for this holiday—here is what is on their wishlists (plus a quick holiday health tip!).
Present Inspiration for the Health-Conscious People In Your Life
We're making your holiday shopping easy this year! WAG Coaches and RDNs Brittany, and Alex gave us a little sneak peek at their holiday wish lists. Use these as inspiration and starting places as you shop for health-conscious loved ones.

- Cuisinart Air Fryer + Convection Toaster Oven provides many meal prep opportunities! From crisping veggies to quickly cooking protein, I'm excited to add this to my lineup.
- Rice is one of my go-to carb sources—especially in meals before and after workouts. The Lenwi Rice Dispenser looks like the perfect way to easily store and measure rice as I need it.
- I’ve heard great things about the Sunrise Alarm Clock and want to try it. Waking up gradually and naturally will help me feel more alert in the morning.
- A bedside humidifier for dryer nights will help with stuffiness and hydration—especially in the chillier months.
- A Papier Wellness Journal to help me set goals and stay grounded in the new year.
Quick Holiday Nutrition Tip: Keep healthy foods stocked in your fridge and prep some go-to meals to keep on hand during the holiday season. Things get busy fast, and when you have lots of special events when you may want a treat, keeping the healthy choice the easy choice at home adds up! If a day, meal, or event doesn’t go as planned, start fresh with the next meal or the next morning.

- A new Garmin smartwatch- I love making sure that I am active throughout the day and not just during my exercise hour. Having a smart watch helps me be aware of how I am moving throughout the day and sleeping. I am adding this to the list since I am due for an upgrade- a gift of health this year!
- A gift card for supplements- Any brand with minimal ingredients and a transparent label will work for me! I do try to get most of my nutritional needs through food, but there are just some things that I still need a supplement for: creatine, protein powder on occasion, and some vitamins based on the season. If I get a gift card to Promix, Momentus, or Transparent labs (or any similar brand), I will be oh, so happy!
- LMNT - This is hands down my favorite electrolyte option. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t enjoy 1-2 of these packets. I am totally to the age where I would love a restock of the things I use on the daily. A couple of boxes of these under the tree = happiness for me!
- New duvet cover. Sleep is ESSENTIAL for optimal health. I know I eat generally better, I eel better, and I look better when I sleep well. Since I am a hot sleeper, the right duvet cover is so important. I would love to see a 100% cotton (because it is breathable!) neutral-colored duvet cover under the tree this year. The gift of good sleep is a gift that keeps on giving.
- Puzzles of any kind! In the theme of total body wellness, a gift of a puzzle would make me so happy because I love a chance to challenge my mind.
Quick Holiday Nutrition Tip: Don’t downplay the impact of doing something small daily for your overall health and wellness. The holidays are busy, so we often don’t have time for a long workout or a full meal prep. That is OK! 15-20 minutes of movement still benefits you! Starting your day with a high-protein breakfast can still make an impact (even if you have cookies for dinner). No need to be all in or all out!
