8 Health and nutrition subscription boxes to gift yourself this year

Subscription boxes and services can help jumpstart your nutrition and health goals

Nutrition subscription boxes and services can be a fun way to support your health goals. From meal kits and pantry staples to glucose biosensors and personalized supplements, today’s wellness subscriptions offer tools that can make healthier choices easier and more consistent. While none of these services are required for weight loss or better nutrition, they can help streamline meal planning, increase your intake of nutritious foods, or provide helpful insights about eating habits. Here’s a closer look at several popular options and how you can use them to support your health and weight goals.

Nutrition subscription boxes

Thrive Market

Thrive Market is an online marketplace offering a membership-based platform for discounted natural and organic pantry items, snacks, and meal staples. Thrive Market provides access to a curated catalog of whole-food-focused options, from beans and grains to nut butters, sauces, and better-for-you snacks.

An environment stocked with healthy, nutritious options makes it easier to stick to your weight-loss goals, and a Thrive Market membership can help. The service offers an affordable way to keep nutritious foods on hand to support healthy eating patterns.

Ollipop

Kicking your soda can be challenging. That’s where the better-for-you, fiber-enriched sodas come into play. Ollipop makes classic soda flavors, reformulated with plant fibers, botanicals, and significantly less sugar. The Ollipop subscription service provides a recurring delivery option for its fiber-packed, low-sugar beverages.

Magic Spoon Cereal

Cereal can be a nutritious and healthy snack or breakfast option. Still, not all cereals are created equal in their nutritional content. Magic Spoon fills this gap, providing higher-protein, gluten-free, zero-sugar cereals in fun flavors reminiscent of childhood. With their “subscribe + save” feature, you can get all the cereal you want at a slightly discounted price.

Hungryroot

Hungryroot is a meal-kit and grocery subscription service that delivers fresh produce, pre-cut veggies, pantry staples, and some full-prepared meals. Hungryroot caters to your taste preferences, dietary needs, and health and nutrition goals.

Use Hungryroot with MyNetDiary to make meal planning and food logging simple. Choose meal kits or ready-to-eat dishes to ease the burden of those “what’s for dinner?” weeknights. Import Hungryroot nutrition information into MyNetDiary using the Barcode Scanner or AI Meal Scan for added convenience.

Health subscription services

Stelo

Stelo is the first over-the-counter continuous glucose monitor or glucose biosensor. Whether you’re an athlete, curious about your blood sugar, or have prediabetes, Stelo can be a valuable tool for understanding how your everyday choices impact your health.

The monitor continuously tracks blood sugar (glucose), allowing you to see how food, exercise, stress, and sleep impact glucose responses. Persistently high blood sugar leads to elevated insulin, which can activate pathways that promote greater fat storage and can increase hunger and appetite! And no one wants to follow a path leading to increased hunger and appetite!

Stelo is not for everyone: Individuals following a medically-prescribed diet or with a history of disordered eating or eating disorders should not try Stelo, as sometimes more data can be harmful.

MyNetDiary

Give yourself the gift of MyNetDiary to help you stay on top of your health and weight goals. You can also save up to 50% off the yearly rate on MyNetDiary gift subscriptions. The recipient will receive an email with a code to access MyNetDiary’s Premium features immediately, including hundreds of dietitian-curated Premium recipes, a supportive Community, and customizable tracking tools to support their health and nutrition goals.

Supplement subscription boxes

Supplements are not necessary for your health or weight-loss journey. However, they can be valuable tools for providing on-the-go nutrition or for filling nutrient gaps.

Gainful

Gainful offers personalized protein powders, hydration packets, fiber supplements, and pre-workout options. After a short quiz about your diet, fitness goals, and lifestyle, Gainful creates an individually tailored protein-powder blend for you.

With Gainful’s subscription model, protein powder is regularly delivered to you without interruption.

HUM Nutrition

HUM Nutrition offers a monthly subscription to a specially curated selection of supplements, each formulated for specific needs such as gut health, skin, mood, and women’s health. A quiz at sign-up curates your supplement stack.

Supplements are not a replacement for food, but they can be used in conjunction with a healthy diet to support overall health. Additionally, supplements can help resolve nutrient deficiencies identified through routine bloodwork.

Give the gift of health and wellness

You might consider gifting nutrition or health subscription boxes or services to those you care about. Maybe you’ve heard a relative talk about how confused they are by health and fitness tracker apps, so offer to give them a Premium membership to MyNetDiary. Or perhaps a friend has longed for a “personal chef” or easier meal prep in the kitchen (and who hasn’t?), then give them a subscription for a healthy nutrition box of their choice to try out for a few months. They will think of your fabulous gift each time it arrives at the door!
