The primary goal of health and wellness blogging is to inform and educate readers about the necessity of maintaining a healthy weight and a fit body via regular physical activity and a well-balanced diet.
In Kenya, most health and wellness bloggers use short videos known as vlogs to pass their message and educate the public. Examples of such vlogs include how to work out at home, do pushups, eat healthy, and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
These blogs aim not to be on a diet or go to the gym daily to get their audience educated about something. The goal is to incorporate a healthy lifestyle into our daily routes to achieve the best health.
The influx and advances of technology have transformed the world for the best. Sharing information is easy. Technology has provided platforms like websites (blogs) and YouTube/Tiktok (vlogs) where the audience can consume data from anywhere and anytime for free.
