Is 2019 now the big year for medical and fitness commercials?

[Hawkee]

I have noticed that there seems to be a whole lot of commercials advertising health and illnesses and medical and fitness related items and it tells me that 2019 has become a year of health and people want to be health nuts this year. Take for instance every day it seems that there are lots of commercials promoting sleeping troubles and it seems to me that sleeping troubles and tiredness are this year's new illnesses. Other medical commercials that get played over and over again are commercials advertising medicines that claim "stop taking if you have a cold or showing signs of a cold" to "side effects may include rashes hives or fainting from hunger" and what I can see of this is that these medicines are huge sellers in pharmacies and people buy a lot of it. Another bunch of commercials that also get overplayed are commercials advertising health and fitness items and diets such as The South Beach Diet to weight loss centers like Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers and items such as Tommie Copper knee bandages and ace bandages to Bowflex exercise machines and it tells me that 2019 is indeed the year for health and fitness

I see those all the time when watching TV also.

There are so many new diets and exercise regimes that I'm not surprised there seems to be more of everything. Plus media is constantly following us wherever we go.

The latest advice is to eat more fibre: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-46827426
