Trend: Health is becoming more holistic, as most of us globally feel that we need to do more for our physical as well as our mental wellness. Despite this, healthy living is a struggle for many and most people feel they need to lose weight. The interconnectedness of health with other systems  such as nutrition and technology is also being examined. This is leading to an overall focus not on just living longer but ageing better.

Tension: The tension between physical and mental health is dissolving, but there is a persistent question of who has access, especially as new “wonder” drugs enter the market. Tech makes it easier to track and manage our health but is also blamed in part for the mental health crisis.

Takeaway: Now people are aware of the need for a holistic approach to managing their health, there are opportunities to help people navigate this ever more complicated landscape.
