What I'm Loving Right Now - Fitness and Nutrition Staples from a Registered Dietitian

As a registered dietitian, I spend a lot of time talking about the fundamentals. Consistency, awareness, simple habits done well. And while none of those require fancy gadgets or trendy products, I’ll be honest: there are a handful of things in my kitchen and gym right now that are making life a whole lot easier (and more fun).

This season, I’ve really been leaning into tools that support real-life. Quick meals between calls, high-protein options that don’t feel boring, and fitness staples that help me stay consistent even on busy days. These aren’t magic solutions, and they’re definitely not required,  but they are things I’m genuinely using on repeat.

So if you’re looking for a few dietitian-approved favorites that make nutrition and training feel a little more seamless, here’s what I’m loving right now.

Kitchen and Nutrition

Ninja Digital Air Fry Pro Countertop Oven 

The ultimate kitchen multitasker for healthier & faster cooking! This air fryer-style oven is perfect for cooking proteins, veggies, and meal components quickly. With eight different settings you can roast, bake, air-fry, toast, and more, helping you stay on track with balanced eating even on busy days.  

Stars and Honey Protein bars 

These were all over my fyp, and eventually I gave in, and I’m so glad I did! If you’re still exploring protein bars that actually taste good and support your nutrition goals, you may want to give Stars and Honey a try. They have a range of clean-ingredient options to find your favorites without settling for chalky or overly sweet bars. 

 Trendplain Original 16 oz Glass Olive Oil Dispenser Bottle

 It’s so easy to let portions get out of control when adding fats to your meal. I frequently cook with olive oil, and this dispenser bottle is a lifesaver. The glass sprayer lets you mist healthy fats like olive oil evenly while seeing your serving size on the side of the bottle. This is a must-have if you’re tracking macros or trying to avoid over-oiling.

CREST 10 Pack Glass Meal Prep Containers

After struggling for way too long to find the right lid for the right container, I decided to make them all uniform and purchased this set. They’re dishwasher and microwave-safe, come in two sizes, and are perfect for your weekly meal prep. 

Fitness & Recovery Essentials

RESTCLOUD Neck and Shoulder Relaxer 

I spend a lot of time in front of a screen and often struggle with neck and shoulder pain. Training and desk time both take a toll on posture and tension in your neck and shoulders. This ergodynamic relaxer helps gently stretch and decompress muscles. For me, it’s a quick way to relieve stiffness after workouts or long desk sessions.

Automatic Rebound Ab Wheel 

My teenage daughter introduced me to this amazing rebound Ab wheel! The rebound feature assists with form and makes controlled reps easier, helping you build strength safely, whether you’re new to core work or adding variety to your routine. 

FanVince Thermal Running Gloves 

My hands are typically one of the first things that get cold. Last year, I discovered these thermal gloves and have used them almost daily during the cold weather months. They're thin, water-resistant, and touchscreen-compatible, helping keep your hands warm without the inconveniences of thick traditional gloves. 

While none of these products are magic, they do make the basics easier. When habits become easier, consistency typically follows. These products help me keep life easy and aligned with my current goals!
