THREE IN FOUR AMERICANS WISH THEY HAD A “CHECK ENGINE” LIGHT FOR THEIR HEALTH, ACCORDING TO A NEW SURVEY.

A POLL OF 2,000 PEOPLE BY ONEPOLL AND VITAFUSION FOUND THREE IN FIVE (63%) STRUGGLE TO RECOGNIZE WHEN THEIR BODY IS TRYING TO TELL THEM SOMETHING ABOUT THEIR HEALTH.

IF THAT “CHECK ENGINE” LIGHT WERE TO EXIST, PEOPLE WOULD MOSTLY USE IT TO KNOW WHEN TO DRINK A GLASS OF WATER (57%), TAKE VITAMINS (50%) OR TAKE A NAP (45%).
