Which British health obsession is genuinely worth the hype β and which is utter nonsense?
From cold plunges in Brighton to mushroom coffee in Shoreditch, we've adopted some questionable habits in the name of wellbeing. Rank these national fixations from life-changing to laughable.
Put the items in your preferred order.
A
The Sunday Roast Recovery
Defenders swear nothing resets the nervous system like roast beef and three veg with the family. Critics call it a salt-laden coma dressed up as self-care.
B
Cold Water Swimming
Every middle-aged Brit suddenly owns a dryrobe and a Hampstead Heath ponds membership. Genuine mental health miracle or just hypothermia with hashtags?
C
The Daily Parkrun
Saturday mornings in hi-vis with a barcode tucked in your sock β the closest thing Britain has to a national religion. Wholesome community or organised smugness?
D
Mushroom Coffee & Adaptogens
Marketed by Instagram nutritionists as the cure for cortisol, burnout and your terrible boss. Or just expensive dirt water with a wellness sticker?
E
A Proper Cup of Tea
No app, no subscription, no influencer required β just a kettle and a packet of Yorkshire Gold. Underrated mental health intervention or comforting placebo?
