A poll of 2,000 respondents revealed how well they feel on a daily basis.
It found a quarter of adults feel anxiety at least once a week and 40 per cent experience some kind of muscle ache most days.
Almost six in 10 (57 per cent) say it’s a rarity they ever feel physically at the top of their game, while 61 per cent claim aches and pains are just part of their daily life.
An unbalanced diet, not doing enough exercise and not having enough hours in a day were among the main reasons people don’t feel good all the time.
A spokesperson for natural vitamin and supplement maker MyVybe, which conducted the study said: “It is hard to be 100 per cent at all times and there will be things that bring us down.
“Especially as we get older, aches and strains and sniffles seem to seek us out more easily than when we were younger.
“However, that may also be a case of looking at the past through rose-tinted glasses as many youngsters also report similar issues.
“There are so many different ways we need to look after ourselves – both mentally and physically – that it can be a full-time job just staying on top of it.”
Brits also reckon they feel 100 per cent for just 10 hours and 12 minutes of an average 24-hour period – even when they’re asleep.
Adults usually feel best in the morning, with the evening the time they’re most likely to struggle, after the long day is over.
In general, only 63 per cent of adults consider themselves healthy – while 23 per cent are currently dieting specifically to lose weight.
To try and boost their wellbeing, 41 per cent have tried going to bed earlier and the same amount have made an effort to drink more water.
