New Year is a holiday that is most often celebrated in the circle of the closest people.

We have collected 6 gifts that will make life easier and help you feel better in the new year.

Humidifier
In dry air, it is easier for viruses and bacteria to exist, and it is harder for the mucous membrane to perform its protective functions. This is one of the reasons why colds and flu are so common in winter when the air outside and indoors is dry. Especially during this period, people with asthma and atopic dermatitis suffer.

The recommended indoor humidity level is 30-50%, the optimal level is 45%. It is better to give preference to humidifiers with a hygrometer so that loved ones can monitor the level of humidity in the room. However, it is worth remembering that you need to take care of the device: pour distilled or mineral-free water, change it daily, let the humidifier dry before adding a new portion of water, and clean it every three days.

Electric Toothbrush
Research shows that electric toothbrushes are more effective at reducing plaque and gum disease than regular toothbrushes. It is better to give preference to a brush with rotating nozzles. According to a Cochrane review, they do better than the rest.

With irrigators, not everything is so simple. Studies have shown that brushing this way can only reduce gum disease in the short term. Scientists did not find a difference in the formation of plaque.

smart garden
Fresh vegetables, berries, and herbs contain vitamins, minerals, and polyphenols—substances that protect against oxidative stress and help cells function properly. Everyone knows that fresh vegetables and berries should be eaten more. With the help of a smart garden, you can grow your own tomatoes, strawberries, basil, spinach, lettuce and other plants.

Fitness bracelet
A fitness bracelet or watch should be given if you know about the motivation of a loved one to change their lifestyle. For example, he would like to walk more and play sports more actively, but it does not work out. In other cases, the bracelet or watch will most likely remain on the shelf.

It is also worth paying attention to the sport that a person likes. If it's swimming, opt for fully waterproof bracelets. If it is running and fitness, then lightweight and comfortable to wear devices are more suitable.

quality earplugs
The normal noise level for a person is not more than 60 decibels. This roughly corresponds to a calm conversation between people. The noise level of busy roads is 80-85 decibels. At this level, a person feels irritated and fatigued, which can interfere with quality sleep.

Earplugs have certain risks. With prolonged use, bacteria can accumulate in them, which increases the risk of infection. However, lack of sleep due to noise has a much more serious effect on health. Regular drugstore earplugs may not be very comfortable, but Happy ears has several sizes and can be washed in warm water or wiped with alcohol. There is delivery to Russia.

Light alarm clock
Such a gift is especially relevant if there is little sunlight in your area. The alarm clock emits a soft light, which is more pleasant to wake up on a dark winter morning. Studies have shown that exposure to light 30 minutes before waking up increases feelings of alertness and improves cognitive function. There is also evidence that such stimulation may help in the treatment of seasonal affective disorder. However, more data is needed to make sure the device is effective.
