We know you want to show love on Valentine’s Day. But you don’t want to spoil anyone’s healthy habits with a bunch of sugar-packed treats, right? Show your love with these alternative gift ideas from our San Jose personal fitness trainers – they're perfect for yourself or your "Someone Special"! Dark chocolate... Darker, more pure chocolates have less sugar. Heart-shaped “samplers” also come full of various healthy nuts. Seriously! Find a bakery nearby that includes low-sugar offerings made with healthier ingredients. Cherries, apples, plums and strawberries are among fruits with the best glycemic scores, so they’re less likely to cause sugar spikes. Of course, there are ways to be “sweet” without being literally sweet. Our San Jose personal fitness trainers think any one of these would make a fabulous gift this Valentine's Day: A nice meal at a favorite restaurant… A special glass of wine or cocktail… Fresh flowers… A hike together on your favorite trail... Massage or spa gift card... With a little thought, you can celebrate and spend time with your loved ones however you choose, or let it be known what you’d prefer to a traditional sugary gift.
