Here at Select, we launched our Best of Wellness Awards, in which we spent months trying hundreds of wellness products and chose our favorites in a variety of categories, including fitness apparel, fitness equipment and tech, sleep and self care.

When it came down to our final award winners, our readers were most interested in toothpastes, body washes, pillows, dumbbells and more. Below are some of the most purchased products from our Wellness Awards coverage.

How we chose our winners

Our editors and staff tried hundreds of wellness items over a span of five weeks. We also spoke with medical professionals and wellness experts, who provided us with information and advice when trying products.

When our team and experts tried wellness items, we ensured that they met a multitude of needs, performed well and allowed you, our readers, to upgrade your lives. Specifically, we look at affordability, size-inclusivity, overall quality and effectiveness to ensure we chose the best products for you.

About our experts

To ensure our product picks are more than just editor-approved, we used a panel of experts, including dermatologists, sleep doctors and personal trainers to share buying advice. Experts did not recommend individual products. When conferring with our unaffiliated panel of experts, we asked them for advice they would give to their patients or clients. You can learn more about our expert panel on our Best of Wellness Awards page.
