New health trends pop up every year, from plunging into ice baths to mixing “sleepy girl mocktails.” With access to a constant stream of health information online, especially through social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram, younger generations, such as Gen Z, are adopting more holistic and proactive approaches to wellness. Practices like yoga, herbal supplements, and plant-based eating continue to gain popularity. In this blog, we’ll explore four health trends that are shaping 2025.

1.    Calorie Deficit Diet

A calorie deficit means that you are eating fewer calories than you are burning. It has recently gained more attention as a way to lose weight and maintain weight loss. During a calorie deficit, the body starts using stored fat for energy, which can contribute to weight loss over time.

To create a calorie deficit, one must either eat fewer calories, increase physical activity, or a combination of both (most recommended). For example, if your body needs 2,000 calories daily and you eat only 1,600, you’re in a 400-calorie deficit. Apps and trackers can be helpful tools for monitoring progress.

Important tip: Going too low on calories can backfire, slowing metabolism, causing fatigue, mood swings, and risking nutrient deficiencies. If you’re on a calorie-restricted plan, consider supplementing with a multivitamin. Try Multi-Mix Complex™ (Extra-Strength), a powerhouse blend of essential vitamins, minerals, probiotics, mushrooms, seaweeds, and digestive enzymes for complete support.

2.    Intermittent Fasting

Intermittent fasting is an eating pattern that cycles between periods of eating and fasting. It has often been linked to weight loss, cognitive function, metabolic wellness, hormonal balance, digestive wellness, and heart health. This method of eating is more about when you eat, not what you eat.

The most popular methods of fasting include:

16:8 Method: This is when you fast for 16 hours and eat during an 8-hour window (typically eating from 12 pm – 8 pm), skipping breakfast.

5:2 Method: This method involves eating normally for 5 days and consuming 500-600 calories the other 2 days of the week.

Alternate-Day Fasting: During this method, you fast every other day, eating very few calories on fasting days (500-600)

Fasting isn’t for everyone. Be mindful of how your body feels and avoid extremes. Nutritional support is essential. Be sure to stay hydrated, prioritize whole foods, and consider electrolyte or supplement support if needed.

3.    Digital Detox

During a digital detox, the amount of time spent online on electronic devices is significantly reduced. This can help reconnect with yourself and become more present in the moment. Research has shown that about 61% of people admit to being addicted to the internet and their phones. Over time, so much screen time can not only affect mental health but also physical well-being.

• Excessive electronic usage can cause:
• Sleep problems
• Mental fatigue and burnout
• Decreased productivity
• Mood swings
• Lack of focus
• Lack of exercise
• Weight gain
• Unhealthy eating
• Self-image problems

Benefits of unplugging can include improved mental clarity, reduced stress, improved sleep, stronger in-person relationships, more time to do other activities, and the ability to feel present. Even as little as a one-day digital detox can help reset the nervous system and create healthier digital habits, and it probably isn’t as hard as you think.

4.    Gut-Focused Health

Gut health is one of the fastest-growing wellness trends in 2025. More people are realizing that the gut doesn’t just impact digestion. It’s connected to immunity, mood, energy, skin health, and even brain function. A balanced gut microbiome can influence inflammation levels, hormone balance, and nutrient absorption.

Holistic gut health practices gaining popularity include:

• Probiotic and prebiotic supplements
• Fermented foods (like kimchi, kefir, miso, and sauerkraut)
• High-fiber plant-based diets
• Herbal gut tonics and teas
• Digestive enzymes

Digestive supplements such as Probiotics+™, Enzyme Complex™, and Aloe Vera Gel Complex™ can help support overall gut health.

Final Thoughts

The health and wellness space in 2025 is all about personalization, balance, and prevention. Whether it’s tracking your calories, taking time away from your phone, or improving your gut health, the trends point toward creating long-term habits that support whole-body well-being.

The key takeaway? Listen to your body. What works for one person may not work for another, and that’s okay. The most important trend of all is tuning in to your unique needs and building a lifestyle that feels sustainable for you.
