Are you confused when it comes to choosing a healthy gift (or two) to show your loved ones you truly care? Or are you looking to show yourself a little self-love by building a supplemental toolkit that’s catered to your health needs?
Let us help you find the perfect ‘pick me up’ present this holiday season.
Gift Ideas for the beauty obsessed
The festive season can understandably take a toll on our skin, with late nights, merry tipples and indulgent food taking centre stage.
Whilst a good skincare regimen and plenty of water can help tackle the effects it has on our complexion, nourishing ourselves from within will help to protect and support our skin during this season.
Collagen is an amino acid naturally produced by the body, which helps to build the structures that support healthy hair, skin and nails. Our collagen complex also contains hyaluronic acid which is a humectant, drawing water to the skin, helping to hydrate skin during the cold months when skin can become dry and dehydrated.

Christmas gifts for the multi-tasker
The holiday season is a particularly busy season, with a packed social calendar, in-laws to cater for and presents to buy in time for the big day.
For the chronically ‘on-the-go’ individual, supplements that provide an energetic boost are needed more than ever. Give the gift of a B complex to the multitaskers in your life, as B vitamins are the energy currency the body uses to function optimally.
Vitamin B Complex
We all know that a good night’s sleep improves energy levels for the following day. Magnesium, therefore, is another wonderful supplement for busy folks. It helps support nervous system function and has been shown to calm psychological stress, directly impacting fatigue and improving sleep quality.

Secret Santa gift ideas
Finding a great secret Santa gift can be tricky, especially if you don’t know your secret Santa pick very well. You may not know their interests, their specific health needs or their tastes when it comes to the ideal gift.
This is when a great all-rounder supplement like a multivitamin will come in handy. A great quality multivitamin will help replenish lost nutrient stores during the holiday season. It can also improve energy levels, hair skin and nail health and give the recipient a little pep in their step.

Another perfect secret Santa gift idea is to buy an electrolytes complex. Electrolytes help replenish lost salts from dehydrating alcohol and sodium rich festive foods. Your colleague will be reaching for their gift to soothe their head after the office Christmas party…and who doesn’t want an anonymous gift that says, ‘I care about your health (and your hangovers) this holiday season’.

Stocking filler gifts
Supplements can make perfect stocking filler gifts. They are compact and can be personalised to the tastes of your loved one.
We now know that good gut health boosts all facets of health and can help to improve fatigue, complexion, mood and chronic inflammation; just to name a few benefits. A good quality probiotic is the single most effective supplement you can take for boosting microbiome quality and support gut health this festive season and beyond.
Biotic Complex
It is important to opt for a multi-strained probiotic, which contains popular strains of beneficial bacteria like Lactobacillus & Bifidobacterium which are found in our biotic complex, as these have been shown to be found in high numbers in the microbiome of healthy individuals.
What to buy for the expecting
A good quality pregnancy multivitamin is a non-negotiable when it comes to the ideal supplement gift for an expectant mother. A range of nutrients, in their optimal doses are required for a healthy pregnancy, both for mum and growing baby.
Pregnancy Complex
Key nutrients to look out for include vitamin D, folate, Choline and iron (to name a few). Our pregnancy complex contains key nutrients required during this important life stage as well as enhancing nutritional benefits with an additional boost of healthy bacteria. Healthy microbiome health in mothers can boost immunity and improve infant health outcomes when breastfeeding.
A great supplement recommendation for those planning a pregnancy is a high-quality Omega 3. Omega 3 improves fertility in both men and women due to its antioxidant properties, along with boosting foetal brain and eye development.
