ABC, Lowcountry Live: Nutrition By Mia 2018 Healthy Holiday Gift Guide

December 21, 2018

Jura E8 automatic coffee machine, KitchenAid 5 quart stand mixer, Magimix food processor, Away Luggage, Cyclone V10 cord-free vacuum Dyson,  Berkey Water Filter

I am so excited to share my 2018 healthy holiday gift guide today on Good Food Friday. These gifts promote wellness and it’s not too late to snatch them up as last minute gifts.

A gift for the coffee enthusiast

How many times do you buy coffee a week? Spending $3 on coffee each day adds up to over $1000 dollars a year, so this is an incredible investment…the Jura E8 automatic coffee machine from Sur La Table. It automatically makes 12 specialty drinks including cappuccinos and latte macchiato – all with the touch of a button. You can also adjust brewing temperature and coffee strength so it’s like having your own barista at home.

A gift for the healthy baker

For healthy baking, I shared the KitchenAid 5 quart stand mixer from Bed Bath and Beyond. This has the capacity to make 9 dozen cookies in a single batch with 10 speeds to mix, knead and whip ingredients. It has a convenient tilt-back head, locking lever help prevent messes and this glass bowl is microwave safe and has markers to help with measurements.

A gift for the healthy cook


For healthy cooking, I shared the Magimix food processor. This is great for serving a crowd, you can use it make everything from veggie noodles to soups. It’s the only food processor that is “Quiet Mark Certified” which means that it has been tested and approved by the Good Housekeeping Institute as quietest in its category. It retails for just under $400 at Magimix MagimixHome.com & on Amazon.

A gift for a healthy home

For the healthy home, I shared the Cyclone V10 cord-free vacuum by Dyson – rated one of the most powerful ones on the market. With the click of a button, it also turns into a handheld vacuum so you can use it to clean every inch of the house. It also has a filtration system that expels clean air and minimizes the effects of allergens or indoor pollutants.

A gift for healthy travel

For the healthy traveler, I shared the AWAY luggage. This luggage was designed to meet the wants and needs of modern travel. They come in 5 different sizes, 9 core colors, each with thoughtful interior organization and unbreakable outer shell. The carry-on has an ejectable battery you can use to charge your phone. And the best part is they have a lifetime warranty!

The gift of healthy hydration

For healthy hydration, I recommend the Berkey Water Filter. All Berkey Water Filter systems are classified as water purifiers which means it is able to remove specified contaminants to a predetermined level, known as a “standard” and is the HIGHEST level of water contamination removal that a water filter can obtain. It does it without the use of harsh chemicals like iodine, chlorine or other chemicals. Instead, it uses a micro-filtration and unique ionic absorption technology to purify the water.
