Short days, dry air, and a lot of time indoors: Minnesota winters ask a little more of our routines. The good news is that winter wellness doesn’t have to be complicated. A few steady habits go a long way, and sometimes a little extra support from the shop helps.

At Tree of Life Wellness Center in Albertville, MN, we carry a curated selection of vitamins, supplements, and wellness products from trusted partner brands. Here are a few simple habits worth keeping this season, and a look at what’s on our shelves right now.

Simple Winter Wellness Habits That Fit Real Life

You don’t need a complete overhaul. These small habits are easy to keep going when the weather turns:

  • Keep a steady sleep schedule. Going to bed and waking up around the same time helps even when the sun sets before 5.
  • Drink water on purpose. Dry indoor air makes it easy to forget, so keep a bottle where you can see it.
  • Get outside, even briefly. A short walk in the daylight can be a nice reset.
  • Lean on warm, whole foods. Soups, roasted vegetables, and plenty of colorful produce make winter eating easier.
  • Make room for calm. Stress piles up in busy seasons, and small moments of rest matter. Read more about easy ways to relax and reset.

Elderberry Syrup and Gummies

Elderberry is a seasonal favorite in a lot of households, and we carry it in a few forms: Elderberry Queen organic elderberry syrup in three sizes (12, 24, and 30 fl oz), plus elderberry gummies made with elderberry, zinc, and vitamin C. The gummies are gluten free and gelatin free, which makes them a good option for people avoiding those ingredients.

Multivitamins and Immune Support Formulas

A lineup of multivitamins and immune support supplements available in our shop

Winter is a popular time to round out a daily routine, so we keep a selection of multivitamins and immune support formulas on hand:

  • Ancient Nutrition Ancient Multi Immune: a whole food multi with 21 vitamins and minerals, plus herbs and superfoods.
  • OrthoMune (Ortho Molecular Products): an immune health capsule formula from Ortho Molecular Products.
  • Quicksilver Scientific Immune Charge+ and Daily Immune Gummies: vitamins C, D, A, E, and K with Haschberg elderberry, available as a liquid or as gummies.

Every body is different, so if you’re not sure what fits your routine, stop in and ask our team.

Staying Hydrated Through Dry Winters

Boxes of LMNT electrolyte drink mix in raspberry, citrus, and watermelon salt.

Heated indoor air dries everything out, and many of us drink less water when it’s cold. LMNT electrolyte drink mix is an easy way to make hydration more appealing. Each stick pack has 1,000 mg of sodium, 200 mg of potassium, and 60 mg of magnesium with no sugar, and we carry raspberry salt, citrus salt, and watermelon salt flavors.

Something for the Little Ones

For families, we also carry Beekeeper’s Naturals Kid’s Propolis daily throat spray. As with any supplement for children, check with your child’s healthcare provider first.

A Note on Supplements

Supplements are meant to add to a balanced diet, not replace one, and they aren’t medicines. The National Institutes of Health recommends talking with your healthcare provider before starting a new supplement, especially if you’re pregnant or nursing, taking prescription medications, or giving a supplement to a child. The NIH’s guide, Dietary Supplements: What You Need to Know, is a helpful place to learn how to read a supplement label.
