The Best Nutrition Apps for a Healthier Lifestyle
August 2015
A healthier lifestyle starts with action. Before you pay exorbitant fees for the latest home gym equipment, state-of-the-art running gear, and highest power blender on the market, start small. Download a few apps to your smartphone, tablet or MP3 player and see where it takes you. You’re likely going to fall in love with the results you receive.
Here are some Nutrition mobile applications that benefit health-minded people:
1. INRFOOD. Stop guessing about what’s in the food you eat. Get to know the ingredients intimately by searching through a massive database of items. Learn their nutritional content as well as healthier alternatives. The app is free, available for iOS, and will make its debut in the Google Play store soon.
2. Charity Miles App. Get in shape and help out others at the same time. Corporate sponsors pay a generous 10 cents for miles biked and 25 cents for miles walked or ran. Feel good inside and outside because of your donations.
3. Striiv. Get in shape, set goals, and provide clean drinking water to people in need. Striiv counts miles walked and ran, stairs climbed, calories burned, and gives you fun goals to achieve throughout the day. Play games and make donations every time you reach a new milestone. How cool is that?
4. Sleep Cycle. Find out how well you sleep each night with this app. It uses the phone’s accelerometer to measure movement and identify REM cycles so you’ll get a restful slumber. A good night’s sleep helps you attack the day with gusto. You make better decisions about the food you eat when you rest soundly.
A healthy lifestyle requires dedication. Your mobile devices are full of apps so why choose ones that potentially change your life for the better? Healthy eating, sleeping, and exercising is right at your fingertips. You couldn’t ask for it to be more convenient.
