Wearable Technology For Health and Wellness


Constantly evolving technology is changing how we live our lives. From managing our schedules and social lives to tracking health and wellness, the average person in the 21st century relies on smart devices to help run their life. As technology improves, the features that are available to us today become more and more useful.
Technological improvements are not only making strides for better functioning devices, but also for better health. This article from Positive Health Wellness discusses eight ways that modern technology can help make you healthier, from the doctor’s office to your own personal health.
But what can you do to ensure that you are tracking your health and fitness effectively on a personal level? Of course there is the Apple Health app but there are other downloadable apps that specialize in tracking your health like Myfitnesspal for logging food and exercise, Couch to 5K to get new runners up and moving and Sleep Cycle to log sleep patterns.
Even though it’s simple to keep track of your health and fitness patterns with your phone and corresponding apps, perhaps the easiest and now one of the most popular ways to track your habits is through wearable technology in the form of a fitness band or smartwatch. These 6 wearables can change the way you live, workout and more!
Fitbit
Synonymous with fitness tracking, the Fitbit comes in many styles, each with distinct features and designs for whatever activity you are trying to track. Some have screens, others are just a simple band. But all of them are powerful, and track your fitness progress.
