The Best Products to Help You Get Healthier in 2026, Tested and Approved

This ring is the perfect item for the person who checks their sleep score before they even check their text messages. The QRNT Smart Ring tracks HRV (heart-rate variability), sleep, stress, blood oxygenation levels, and skin temperature — all in a sleek titanium ring that won’t announce “I’m wearing a tracker.” It charges in a compact case, runs about five days per charge, and crucially: has no subscriptions. “This ring holds you accountable for many things, and for me, it's been huge with exercise and making sure I'm getting good sleep,” writer Raki Swanson says. “The app is very easy to set up, is free, and is easy to maneuver in.”

If you’re ready to turn your spare room into a personal spin studio, this is the bike to make it happen. The C6 syncs with apps like Zwift, Peloton, and JRNY, letting you chase metrics, leaderboards, and virtual sweat sessions. With 100 levels of magnetic resistance and a smooth, super quiet ride, it’ll deliver a studio-quality workout at home. “Whether you want to ride at a leisurely pace for 30 minutes or do some high-intensity workouts, this bike is perfect,” says Swanson. Plus, “it is a very attractive bike, with the black and the red. It’s sleek and will match any type of decor.”

Pressed for time, but looking to keep up with your routine? P-Volve Signature Bundle can help. It includes a band, ball, and mat designed to provide a low-impact, full-body workout and build strength, stability, and flexibility. The bundle comes with a one-on-one trainer consultation and a month of free access to their streaming platform. “I like that I can do this from home on my own time, whether I have 20 minutes or an hour,” says editor Ashley Zeigler. “I genuinely feel like I get a solid workout from the classes, and I don't typically feel that way when I'm doing classes from home with other styles of workouts (yoga, barre). It's also under $30 per month, and you can't beat that.”

Ready to hit the trail in 2026? This long-sleeve shirt will give you the perfect start. It’s made from moisture-wicking dri-release fabric and has body-mapped mesh to enhance breathability. A droptail hem offers coverage in the back, and unzippered pockets make it easy to reach for energy gels mid-cycle. “The light color is nice if you're in the woods for warding off mosquitoes,” says writer Jessica Migala. “The Fog color, a light oatmeal color, is the epitome of the ‘wear something lightweight in a light color’ rule. I also like the mesh fabric cuffs and side body and underside of the arms, which keep you nice and cool.”

If you are ready to officially call yourself “a trail person” in the new year, this hydration pack should be on your buy list. The Teton TrailRunner 2L is ultralight, bounce-resistant, and designed to sit close to the body so it won’t swish around on rocky terrain. The 2-liter (L) bladder keeps you hydrated for miles, while the zip pockets stash snacks and other essentials. It’s great “for outdoorsy folks at a great price point in a variety of color options,” says editor Olivia Campbell.

The sun salutations will come out tomorrow, and there’s no day like today to start purchasing what you need. A great yoga mat that's easy on the joints and supports you during complex floor movements will go a long way toward helping you stick to a yoga-based resolution. The nonslip, 5-millimeter thick Gaiam Dry-Grip Yoga Mat stands out as one of the best options we've tested. “It was thick, and the cushion was enough that my knees didn’t hurt when doing certain poses,” Swanson says. “The extra thickness gave me more padding for when I fell trying to do some poses. This mat is thicker and a bit firmer than the other mats that I tested.”

The Icebreaker Merino 260 Tech High-Rise Thermal Leggings will keep you toasty as you hit the slopes. The midweight wool is thick enough to lock in warmth, but thanks to the fabric’s natural breathability, it won’t cause overheating. Wool is also naturally moisture-wicking and odor-absorbing. We love that these leggings have the added benefit of flat seams that reduce chafing, and the high-rise waistband gives extra coverage.“I see this as an ideal base-layer for skiing, snowshoeing, and other cold-weather activities,” says Scanniello.

So you’re not a newbie when it comes to training, and you’d like to up the ante even further? The Garmin Venu 4 is the perfect pick. It’s favored by professional athletes and works just as well for weekend fitness warriors committing to their 2026 goals. It has over 80 sport-specific apps, downloadable workouts, and an AI-powered coach. And it can create custom workout plans that feature up to 25 different workout types. Plus, it tracks health metrics, including heart rate, ECG, oxygenation, sleep, and even “Lifestyle Logging,” into which you can input data like alcohol consumption, so you can see how your habits affect your health.

If committing to using more natural products is a goal for the new year, switching to a nontoxic deodorant is a small but meaningful step. Unlike some deodorants, which may have parabens and chemical fragrances, Primally Pure’s formulas are scented with organic essential oils and use grass-fed tallow, arrowroot powder, and naturally-mined baking soda to neutralize odor. Scanniello says her favorite thing about the product is that it actually works, unlike many natural deodorants that aren’t exactly effective. “I love that it comes in many different scents as well,” she adds. Choose from Vanilla + Citrus, Blue Tansy, Lemongrass, and many more.

This hand-poured soy candle brings a peaceful, forest-like scent into any space — think cypress, evergreen, and fir. The aroma is grounding, making it perfect for someone trying to build a calming evening self-care routine. “It's got a nice scent,” says editorial director Simone Scully. “It’s a subtle, pine scent that isn't overwhelming or overly artificial. I also like the packaging: It comes in a nice jar, with a pretty, simple label and a wood cover to keep the dust out.” At 50 to 60 hours of burn time, you can use it throughout the week as a signal to wind down. And because it’s phthalate-free and made with clean ingredients, you can feel even better about your new healthy habit.

Get all of those hard-to-reach places effortlessly with this U-shaped electric toothbrush that’s designed to clean all of your teeth at the same time in just 30 seconds. The device uses sonic vibrations and red light therapy to reduce gum inflammation and has potential antimicrobial effects.

“It felt like I’d just come from the dentist after having a cleaning,” ways writer Kimberly Dawn Neumann. The deep-clean feeling she gets from using it helps ensure that it’s a staple in her routine. After two months of using the device, Neumann’s dentist said her gums looked healthy, and she experienced less pain and bleeding during her cleaning.

The mask is great for someone who is “serious about skin care,” says writer Grace Gallagher. “I like how it feels on my skin, and I noticed a more even skin tone shortly after using it.” It’s also hands-free, which makes it easier to wear while multitasking.

Tilden Complex’s Non-Alcoholic Cocktails are the perfect companion for someone committing to going alcohol-free. “The flavors on this mocktail duo are great,” says editor Katie Tuttle. “It would be a good gift for a friend who doesn't drink, but doesn't want to miss out on interesting flavors (and wants something a little more festive than a water or a soda in a plastic cup).” The sophisticated set includes Tandem, with notes of tart cherry and bitter orange, and Lacewing, an herbaceous blend of cucumber and basil. With this set at your side, you can enjoy healthier, more conscious relaxation and socialization rituals without feeling like you’re missing out.

This item gives new meaning to the phrase, tend to your inner garden. There’s something so satisfying about tending to the plants that you’ll eat later for nourishment. Click and Grow’s Smart Garden 9 is an aesthetically pleasing option to help you do just that. It couldn’t be easier, either, because the garden automatically provides the plants with light, water (this needs to be refilled every few weeks), and nutrients, so all you have to do is watch them grow and enjoy. Click and Grow has a wide variety of plant pods for purchase. The Smart Garden includes nine basil, lettuce, and mini tomato plant pods to get you started.

If you’re ready to reap the benefits of a plant-based diet, preprepared, delivered meals from Mosaic Foods can help you get there. They specialize in vegetarian and vegan dishes, free of artificial ingredients and chemical preservatives. With delicious options like Butternut Squash and Sage Pasta, and Ginger, Quinoa, and Veggie Soup, this service offers an easy way to transition to a more plant-based diet. If the whole family is on board with this resolution, Mosaic also offers four-serving family-size meals, such as Veggie Pot Pie and Penne Alla Vodka. Not to mention, our tester found the meals to be quite tasty, which can only help you stick to your goal.

If you’re on a mission to get more protein in 2026, Javvy’s Protein Iced Coffee is a delicious and effective choice. With 10 gram of whey protein and no added sugars, it’s a smart way to incorporate protein into your daily caffeine ritual. With flavors like Tiramisu, French Vanilla, and Salted Caramel, the drink delivers on taste. “I truly love this product,” Swanson says. Whether you’re looking to build muscle or recover more effectively, this coffee is a delicious and practical tool.

Craft delicious and nutritious dishes like smoothie bowls and nut butters with the Ninja Foodi Personal Blender and Smoothie Bowl Maker. The 1,400-watt motor helps the machine power through frozen produce and thick smoothie-bowl mixes without stalling. “The torque is insane, I've never had a blender blow through thick, chunky, frozen fruits like this does,” says writer and dietitian Tori Martinet. “It has suction cups on the bottom to keep it stable, which is great if you want to leave something to blend and walk away from it.” The device is versatile and can make bread dough and homemade ice cream for days when you just want to treat yourself.

Staying hydrated is likely a worthy goal on any New Year's Resolution list, and the Soma 10-Cup Water Filter Pitcher can help you achieve it. It uses a coconut-shell-based carbon filter to remove chlorine and other common impurities, delivering better-tasting, cleaner water. With a 10-cup capacity, it's big enough for regular use in a kitchen fridge, but compact enough not to feel cumbersome. “This product changes our preconceived thoughts on water filter pitchers,” shares Swanson. “This is easy to fill, the water filters through the filter quickly, so no waiting for the filtering, and the wooden handle makes this easy to grab.” She also appreciates its aesthetic design.

Eating more greens is always solid advice, and you can achieve it with a ready-made powder. Possible SuperGrens powder is nutrient-dense, plant-based, and convenient for someone who doesn’t get enough veggies. It’s made from real-food ingredients to support digestion, immunity, energy, and recovery. Unlike many competitors, the drink tastes great: “First thoughts: delicious,” Swanson says. “I can do this every day for the rest of my life.” She loves that the drink mixes well and is smooth rather than being gritty. And because it's designed for daily use, it’s a great companion to a “get healthier” resolution without requiring major changes to your diet.

Get in the habit of always having healthy water with you with the Hydro Flask. The bottle is made from stainless steel and BPA-free plastic, with a double-wall, vacuum-insulated design that keeps liquids nice and cold. It outperformed all competitors during our testing, staying an icy 45 degrees F when left outside for eight hours.

This eco-conscious starter kit is a great way to reduce the level of toxins and plastic in your home, specifically by helping you launder your clothes and sheets in a healthier way. This Proofed! Starter Kit contains a USDA Certified BioBased Product detergent and stain remover. The sheets dissolve completely in hot or cold water, leaving no residue. “I love that this is plastic-free and bio-based,” reports editor Nicole Bonaccorso. “I'm always looking for plastic-free items. It helps me feel like I'm doing the best for my family.” For a New Year’s resolution around reducing waste and creating a healthier living space, it’s an accessible, budget-friendly gift.

If you’re on a mission to make cleaning easier and more efficient, the Roborock F25 ACE Combo 5-in-1 Wet-Dry Vacuum is a game-changer. This device can vacuum, mop, scrub, wash, and dry — all cordless and without switching machines. It includes plenty of attachments for getting every last inch of the house spic and span clean. It also features self-cleaning with hot water and an automatic detergent dispenser. And it’s powerful: “One day, I spilled a container of consomme all over my kitchen floor,” says Tuttle. “With the F25, I was able to clean up a huge puddle of greasy broth, and this is a self-cleaning and self-drying unit, which I appreciated very much.”
