The Goods
There is no shortage of health and wellness products on the market to ease what ails a person. In fact, there are undoubtedly millions of items that offer everything from essential oils to allergy relief and beyond. The trick for those in need to is figure out what’s available and what works. One way to judge is by sales, effectively what’s moving off shelves—whether they are brick and mortar shelves or digital shelves. Admittedly, sales aren’t a foolproof method for judging something’s worth. They can be boosted by savvy marketing and advertising. However, over time the market usually can tell what’s a legitimate product and what’s not. WellWell is trying to help by periodically identifying what’s hot on Amazon, the world’s largest online retailer. Right now, we’re looking at Amazon’s top ten products in its general Healthcare category. Included is everything from allergy meds to pregnancy tests, ear wax removal kits, heating pads and more. WellWell isn’t endorsing these products, just letting readers know what’s moving fast should they want to take a closer look.
