Six feel-good health and wellness boosters you can get delivered in Melbourne

Backed by a team of experts who are committed to developing nutritionally formulated products based on carefully selected ingredients, traditional use and scientific evidence, it’s safe to say Aussie brand JS Health isn’t your average vitamin company. On a mission to educate people to lead a happy and balanced life, the products on offer cover off almost every facet of health and wellness. We’re talking collagen supplements for glowing skin, protein bars for energy and a range of capsules for digestion, libido, sleep, anxiety, metabolism and immunity. All formulations are free of nasties like fillers, binders and preservatives, and (where possible) JS Health uses vegan ingredients. You can buy all items individually, or bundle them up into customised packs to ensure you’re nourishing the parts of your body that really need it.

A word of warning before we begin: once you start on your essential oils journey, you never go back. We’re joking, of course – but we do mean it when we say there’s just something so lovely about firing up your diffuser with a calming blend of aromatherapy oils. Eco Modern Essentials is your online go-to for all the sweet-smelling things, and it’s where you’ll find an oil for everything, including: better sleep, stress relief, muscle recovery and enhanced energy levels. There are also collections based on your zodiac sign, and you can even opt for a regular subscription box so that your supplies never run low. All products are made from ingredients that are ethically sourced, and the entire range is vegan and PETA approved. 

Unless you’re a qualified nutritionist or naturopath, the world of vitamins, minerals and probiotics can be pretty overwhelming. If this sounds familiar, and you don’t know your B12 from your B Complex, or what magnesium actually does, let us introduce Vitable. This Aussie company is taking the guesswork out of what you should be taking and how often by creating personalised vitamin packs that are delivered straight to your door every month. All you need to do is take the simple (and super fun) quiz, and you’ll be recommended a selection of supplements that best suit your health, diet and lifestyle goals. Plus, your wellness goodies come wrapped in compostable packs – so you’re not just helping yourself, you’re helping the environment too!

Get that smug, healthy person glow when you invest in a cold press juicer from Naturopress. Sure, at $399 it’s a bit of a splurge (shipping is free though), but just think of all the money you’ll be saving by whipping up yummy, nutrient-rich juices at home, instead of forking out for them at a café. This sleek, matte black juicer can handle hard fruit and veggies like beetroot and ginger, plus soft varieties like leafy greens – and it even comes with a sorbet attachment, which is obviously a very important accessory. Also included are two e-books filled with recipes; and for every juicer sold, Naturopress plants a tree in Western Australia’s Yarra Yarra Biodiversity Corridor. 

If you’ve always thought protein bars and powders were reserved for body builders and gym junkies, prepare to be pleasantly surprised. At 180 Nutrition, all protein products are made using natural ingredients like plant-based fibres, natural fats, vitamins and minerals that everyone – including people with allergies and chronic illness, kids and the elderly – can enjoy. Of course, if you’ve just smashed a killer weight sesh and need a little pick-me-up, then a shake is a fab option, but the blends can also be used to make tasty, nutritious snacks like chia puddings, slices, muffins and pancakes (recipes are on the website). Score free shipping when your order is over $99.

Welcome to the online health store of your dreams. If there’s a snack, supplement, spread or superfood that’s both delicious and nutritious, chances are Aussie Health Products has it in stock.

And it’s not just edible goodies on offer either, there’s also an impressive range of skincare, cleaning and pet care items to browse through as well. In case that wasn’t incentive enough to kick-start your healthy shopping spree, many of the brands are also heavily discounted, and there’s the added bonus of three buy now pay later services: Humm, Afterpay and ZipPay.
