, , |

In a world where picking up our smartphones is just as important as putting on clothes, there seems to be an app for almost everything. Once upon a time, our health and wellness journeys were an arduous path that we had to tread alone. However, with the sophisticated rise of tech, there are now plenty of cutting-edge IOS and Android apps that can help you get the very best out of improving your body and overall health.

My Fitness Pal

One of the best food tracking apps on the block, MyFitnessPal, is home to a custom food diary that you can curate. It uses an easy-to-use database that offers dietary information for millions of foods. From restaurant meals to branded products, MyFitnessPal provides a comprehensive and detailed view of what you're eating, helping you on your journey to either lose weight or build muscle.

Headspace

Mental health is just as important as physical health. Millions of studies have shown that optimum mental health can provide a boost in energy levels and immunity. Headspace is an app that offers a range of mini guided meditation sessions, helping you sleep, manage stress, relieve anxiety, and improve overall happiness.

Fitplan

Why bother planning for fitness without Fitplan? If you want to have a celebrity personal trainer without the celebrity price tag, then look no further.

Oura

Sleep is one of the magic ingredients to helping you stay in good health throughout your life.

One of the most accurate sleep and activity trackers on the market, the Oura Ring and App measures the physiological signs of your body, understands your lifestyle, and tracks the quality of your sleep.

Not strictly a fitness app, however, Spotify's workout playlists can turn your sluggish exercise session into a sensationally sweaty extravaganza. Whether you want to shake it like Shakira or bust a move like Beyoncé, there are several amazing playlists from various genres and decades that will transform your daily workout. Whether you choose Spotify's workout mixes, blast a fellow user's, or create your own, there is a workout mixtape waiting for you.

HealthTap

In the age we are living through today, everyone is thinking twice about running to the doctor.

Using HealthTap, pose your health-related question to an extensive database of recognized physicians to receive genuine medical advice. HealthTap connects patients with doctors and allows patients to receive real and actionable advice without visiting the doctor's office.
