THE CONSUMER SELF-CARE EXPLOSION:

Over the last six years, we have seen an evolution and broadening of actions that consumers have adopted, in varying degrees, to take better care of themselves. In particular, the 2020 pandemic intensified the resolve of most all consumers to do something to care for themselves. In fact, 93% of those surveyed by IRI and Kline’s most recent consumer survey in late 2020 view health and wellness as a priority to a degree.
