Health + Healthy Lifestyle Brands On Twitter

This is a big list compiled by Paul Dunay from BearingPoint of brands using Twitter - Brands That Tweet.  These companies are across a wide range of industries, both b2b and b2c. 

Not much representation in the health + healthy lifestyles space:
• GE Healthcare (twitter.com/GE_reports)
• Growing Bolder (twitter.com/growingbolder)
• North Face (twitter.com/thenorthface)
• Planet Green (twitter.com/planetgreen)
• Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (twitter.com/rwjf)
• Travel Channel (twitter.com/travelchannel)
• Triathlete Magazine (twitter.com/TriathleteMag)
• Whole Foods (twitter.com/wholefoods)
But I think there's good reason for these brands to take advantage of the opportunity to:
• establish a personality beyond that of a faceless institution
• display their transparency
• at least listen in to what people are saying about their brands, 
• if not add to the conversation through valuable content,
• in ways that their audiences value and want

  1. Medifast, a leading portion controlled weight-loss program, is also utilizing social media as we target the female demo. We're on twitter (@MedifastPR), Facebook, MySpace and YouTube to name a few.
