As we step into 2022, the focus on wellness has brought a variety of trends to the forefront of our health-conscious society. From nurturing gut health to adopting sustainable menstrual products, here's a rundown of the top health trends of the year that are making a positive impact on our overall wellbeing.
With a staggering 83% increase in 'gut health' Google searches, it's clear that digestive wellness is a priority. A robust gut flora is essential for a robust immune system, heart and brain health, quality sleep, mood regulation, and can even help prevent certain cancers and autoimmune diseases. Opt for wholefoods, fresh fruits, and vegetables, and avoid processed foods for a healthier gut.
The simplicity and accessibility of walking have made it a globally popular form of exercise. The viral 'hot girl walk' trend on TikTok has highlighted the benefits of walking, such as enhanced cognitive function, better sleep, and increased energy. Aiming for 150 minutes of walking per week can significantly improve your wellbeing.
Menstruation is becoming less of a taboo, thanks in part to female-led companies promoting sustainable menstrual care. The US generates an estimated 200,000 tons of waste from tampons and pads annually. Alternatives like menstrual cups, period underwear, and reusable pads are gaining traction, offering environmentally friendly and stigma-free options for menstrual hygiene.
The pandemic led to an increase in alcohol consumption, contributing to weight gain and unhealthy habits. As a result, the sober-curious movement has grown, with non-alcoholic beverages and mocktails providing a social drinking experience without the health drawbacks. Sales of non-alcoholic drinks surged by 33% last year and are expected to continue rising.
Telehealth has become invaluable, particularly with the rise of remote work. It allows primary care physicians to see more patients and expedite prescriptions. Mental health services are also more accessible thanks to platforms like Better Help and Cerebral, offering treatment to those in remote areas or with physical limitations, making mental health care more approachable and convenient.
While new trends offer various paths to wellness, the key is to find what resonates with you. Nourish your mind and body, experiment with different lifestyles and practices, and invest in your health for long-term benefits.
