The winter weather is fully upon us, and it is time to make room for warm meals, fuzzy clothes, and the festivities it brings in.
Indeed, a winter shopping store list is not all about warm clothing, and a fresh supply of winter-special groceries, but also, a little stocking up on medication lest you get a runny nose…
Well, to make your winter shopping easier this year, here’s a curated things to remember store list of items to make your snow season happier and healthier.
Humidifiers are an excellent remedy to more than one winter problem. The dry winter air sucks out the natural moisture from our skin. A humidifier in the room adds comfort, ensures optimum humidity level in the environment, hence bringing back moisture and a healthy glow to the skin.
Humidifiers are also known to ease out asthma, relieve allergies and prevent snoring.
Ditch the hot water bags or the hot and cold gel packs this year and get a heating pad instead. These offer better and quicker warmth and are a hassle-free alternative.
People suffering from arthritis experience pain at a peak during winters. A heating pad comes in handy and offers relief against sore muscles, and painful joints. Some heating pads come with an automatic turn-off mechanism as well.
While coffee makers are on the expensive side, it’s worth it. A fail-proof and perfect cup of hot coffee every winter morning, doesn’t that sound amazing?
Coffee should be your go-to winter beverage, as it gives a shot of energy much needed for a start. Also, the caffeine in coffee rejuvenates the skin and repairs UV damage. You can always experiment with various coffee flavors, or maybe spruce it up yourself with some cinnamon spice.
We promised a list to make your winter happier, here you go.
While soups are always good for your health, it becomes a special meal during winter. It’s warm, keeps you full, nutrient-rich, and helps your body retain water. And soups have always been a traditional remedy for sick and cold days.
And then comes hot chocolate. Did you know? U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) now considers cocoa to be an excellent source of iron and fiber. Just another great reason to add chocolate to our lives. Also, cocoa is rich in antioxidants, keeps your heart healthy, and boosts memory.
Winters are not a good friend to our skin, especially for too dry skin. Hence, you should rethink your skincare regime for these harsh days.
Switch to hydrating cleansers, and moisturizers. You can add chemical exfoliants like hyaluronic acid to seal in moisture for a longer time.
Suncare is essential for all seasons, only more in winters as we tend to enjoy the sun. Soak in all that natural Vitamin D, but do not leave behind the broad-spectrum sunscreen at home. Added tip: Go for SPF 30 and up.
Don’t let the temperature drop weaken your immune system. Keep some essential multivitamins ready at hand. For instance, vitamin B enhances cell metabolism and the immune system. And vitamin C combats free radical damage. Runny nose, and viral infections? Vitamin C has your back.
However, always consult your healthcare provider before incorporating vitamins and supplements.
Indeed, a warm bowl of your favorite soup can ward off cold and flu, but it is safe to keep some basic medications at home. Like a nasal spray for your blocked nose, a few throat lozenges and cough syrups for cold therapy, and other flu medications.
Well, that was our curated winter shopping list for you. Our things to remember store list will help you stay healthy and happy while enjoying the chilly winter days. We hope you have a great year ahead!
