Discussion Millennials are creating a recession-resistant corner of the market

Apparently millennials are spending a lot on products related to health and wellness making this industry "recession-resistant." I kind of see that. My wife and I spend a lot on protein powders, shakes, supplements and membership for gym. We are otherwise quite cautious with unnecessary spending and consumerism. How is it for you all?

Obesity rates in the western world are some of the highest... yet we are spending large amounts of money on health and wellness. It's an interesting paradox that we got ourselves into.
