Healthy stocking stuffers

Fitness pro shares simple, non-sugary gift ideas

Looking for small gifts that won’t sabotage New Year goals, fitness and nutrition expert Jody Trierweiler joined us on Live in the D to spotlight practical, wellness-minded stocking stuffers that go beyond candy and gadgets.

“This is just saying, like, I care about your health,” Trierweiler said during the segment.

Her picks included:

- Natural deodorant from Michigan-made Rustic Maka, a baking soda- and aluminum-free option she says lasts through workouts.

- A stainless-steel travel mug to cut down on microplastics from disposable hot drink cups; bring-your-own can keep beverages hot and reduce daily exposure.

- Weightlifting gloves to prevent calluses and encourage stronger, more confident gym sessions.

- A dry shampoo “pre-workout” hack — apply before exercising so it absorbs sweat, not just oil, helping preserve hairstyles.

- Magnesium oil spray for muscle relaxation, easing soreness and supporting sleep as a nighttime add-on to Epsom salt routines.

- Low-sugar, allergen-friendly gummy multivitamins as an approachable nutrition boost for reluctant supplement takers.
