Health has become a major concern for many people these days. With the increasing awareness on the bad effects of living an unhealthy lifestyle, many people turn to organic goods that are sometimes hard to prepare. 

If you know someone who keeps trying, and maybe failing, to lead the healthy life of their dreams, here are the perfect must-haves or gift items you can recommend or buy.

Original SpiraLife Spiralizer Vegetable Slicer

Price: $10.97

Make your pasta even more nutritious by using zucchini noodles. And for that, using this product is highly recommended. 

While it is pretty affordable with a price less than $15.00, SpiraLife Spiralizer Vegetable Slicer does not come cheap. It has an amazing design and great durability. And it is quite easy to use too.

Food blogger Kristi D demonstrated how to use it. It works like a pencil sharpener: you insert the veggie of your choice in the hole and turn it until the slices come out. The package also comes with a handle that you can use in case it becomes more difficult to turn, just like what normally happens when a pencil has gone short.

2. Food dehydrator

Aroma Housewares Professional 6 Tray Food Dehydrator

Price: $98.44

Drying your food is great. Aside from it extends the shelf life, multiple studies have found out that it is healthier. For instance, a review report published by the journal Nutrients in 2017 said that dried plums are good for bone formation, are a natural laxative, and are rich in Vitamin K and potassium. Today's Dietitian, on the other hand, said that most dried fruits naturally have good amount of anti-oxidant.

Unfortunately, processed dried fruits are normally high in carbohydrates due to the sugar added. And this is why making your own dried fruits might be a better idea.

Aroma Housewares is an excellent choice. First, it has six trays which allow large-capacity drying. It also has precise temperature control and a circulating airflow features, making drying less hassle. 

And here's a bonus: it can work on meat too.

For a busy person who wants to consume something healthy regularly, this is perfect for you. Due to its size comparable to standard sports drinking bottle, you can always carry this wherever you are.

Once you own this, you have no more excuse to skip healthy fruit drinks.

Instead of holding the leash while running, use a waist belt instead. This one can adjust up to 43".

In case you have a big dog and you worry that it may go out of control while running, the dual bungees designed will protect your back from strain but absorbing the shock. The leash also has an extra handle that you can use to pull the dog if it will not obey you.

Great Gear Infuser Water Bottle Sport Flip-top BPA-Free Tritan

We all know that drinking water is one healthy act that everyone forgets. Numerous alternatives can be blamed for this, but a simple reminder to drink water should go a long way. A water bottle should be reminder enough. However, there are some people who hate water so much due to its taste (or the lack thereof). For that, adding a bit of natural fruity flavor might be a good idea.

The procedure is simple: just put the fruit of your choice (lemon, raspberry, melon, even mint) to the inside the strainer, and add water. Poof, you already have a healthy flavored drink that is undoubtfully cheaper than the store-bought ones. You can refill the bottle up to three times before the taste of the fruit fades away completely.

The bottle is also leak-proof and is approved by the FDA for guaranteed safety.
