Social campaign gives consumers a platform to divulge wellness fads they have been falling for

One A Day®, the multivitamin and supplement brand rooted in 80+ years of nutritional science, has launched a new campaign to address the prevalence of wellness fads and misinformation and remind consumers to trust science when it comes to their wellness journey. The social campaign #WellnessConfessionals also gives people a platform to divulge the wellness fads they have been falling for.

To support the launch of #WellnessConfessionals, One A Day® teamed up with former professional football player and MVP Julian Edelman who shares wellness trends he tried that did not live up to the hype. "People have suggested a lot of strange wellness diets to me. I’ve tried it all. But I've learned to ignore all the weird nutrition advice and build habits based in science, like eating healthy and adding One A Day®," says Edelman.

By sharing their wellness confessionals across TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook, consumers can enter a sweepstakes for a chance to win a 5-night stay at an American wellness resort to help them escape the noise.

Consumers can enter the sweepstakes by posting a video or image and sharing an experience with a wellness trend they have participated in that didn’t live up to the hype or otherwise did not meet their expectations on Facebook, Instagram or TikTok, tagging One A Day® and using the hashtag #WellnessConfessionals and #OneADaySweepstakes in the post caption. The sweepstakes run from May 9, 2024 through June 30, 2024. No purchase necessary. Void where prohibited. Open to continental U.S. residents who are least 18 years old or age of majority.

In the battleground of wellness and nutrition, new trends often promise quick fixes, whether it's detox teas, extreme diets, or trendy workouts. Many of these fads lack scientific backing and may even be harmful in the long run. "One A Day® is a multivitamin and supplement brand rooted in nutritional science, supporting consumers’ wellness for over 80 years. In a world inundated with wellness noise, One A Day® is committed to help consumers navigate the wellness noise and provide them with scientifically designed products to support their health and wellness," said Lisa Perez, General Manager and VP Marketing, Nutritionals at Bayer.
