Fooducate

Learn to choose healthy food options with this simple app. Search more than 200,000 food items or scan a barcode to see that item’s letter grade. Foods are graded from A to D.

You can even track your caloric intake and exercise, add your own foods, and participate in the community.

Noom Coach: Weight Loss
Price: Free basic version

One of several Noom apps, this one goes beyond simple fitness tracking and calorie counting. Noom claims that active users lose an average of 10 pounds in two months. The app offers a pedometer, calorie counter, health and fitness articles, and user forums for questions and support wrapped up in a clean, intuitive package. The pro version is a monthly subscription with several additional features, such as Noom Groups, Noom Recipes, and more content.

MyFitnessPal
Price: Free
Availability: Google Play, Amazon Appstore, Apple App Store
This exercise, weight, and activity tracking app has won awards from PC Magazine and Wired. It is one of the most popular weight loss apps available. You can set goals, view reports, and engage with your friends. It even connects with other top fitness apps, such as Misfit, FitBit, and MapMyRun, so you don’t have to log activity information more than once. Entering foods can be done manually or with a scanner. Nearly any food you can think of is probably already among the more than 3 million foods in the app. It lets you save favorite meals for easier logging and add recipes by ingredient for correct calorie count on homemade dishes.

BMI Calculator
Price: Free
Availability: Google Play, Amazon Appstore, Apple App Store
Similar calculators are available from all three app sources and several developers. They all basically do the same thing. Our favorite is the BMI Calculator by Appovo in Google Play. It has a simple, intuitive interface. Input your age, weight, and height to calculate your BMI. Also calculate your waist to height ratio. Save your last entered age, height, weight, and waist to help you track your progress over time (in one of your other fitness apps).

Sworkit
Price: Lite version Free
Availability: Google Play, Amazon Appstore, Apple App Store
Get the workout you want, wherever you are, and in the amount of time you have. Sworkit lets you pick a type and time, then gives you a workout. You can even choose a target area to focus on. Workout types include: strength, cardio, yoga, stretching, and pilates. With the pro version, you can create and save your own circuits, customize workouts for specific needs, adjust intervals, sync with MyFitnessPal, and more.

One of the best things about using apps to help you lose weight is they are always with you. You can have a food diary, calorie calculator, and a snapshot of your progress right in your purse or pocket. The motivation, support, and information you need to keep going and successfully lose weight is within reach even at your worst moments. Use these invaluable (and often free) apps to reach news levels of health and fitness in 2015.

Hair, Skin, and Nails: The All-natural Supplement with Crazy Results

It Works Hair Skin and Nails

Did you know that ItWorks doesn?t just create amazing body wraps, but nutritional supplements, as well?

If you have brittle nails, hair breakage, or have noticed your skin losing some of its elasticity, you must check out this product.

What Does It Do?
The ingredient blend in Hair Skin Nails is created to help enhance your body?s ability to nourish your hair, skin, and nails. It boosts production of collagen, a protein that gives your skin elasticity. It also helps your body produce more keratin to increase strength in your hair, skin, and nails. The plant-based, natural ingredients provide you with antioxidants, amino acids, enzymes, and minerals your body needs to flourish.

As indicated in the instructions, you must take two tablets with food, every day.

What?s In It?
ItWorks Hair Skin Nails is comprised of several vitamins and minerals crucial for improving the moisture, strength and elasticity of your skin, hair, and nails.

  • Vitamin C – An antioxidant that helps your body deal with free radical damage and better use the other ingredients in the supplement.
  • Vitamin E – Also an antioxidant.
  • Vitamin B6 – Helps metabolize proteins and carbohydrates.
  • Biotin – Helps improve keratin structure.
  • Pantothenic Acid – Also known as Vitamin B5, helps metabolize carbohydrates.
  • Zinc – Aids in cell renewal.
  • Selenium – Protects from oxidative damage.
  • Manganese – Has antioxidant properties.
  • Alpha-Lipoic Acid – An antioxidant also used to reduce some diabetic symptoms.
  • Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) – A plant-derived chemical with loads of uses, such as stretch marks and wrinkles.
  • Gotu Kola Extract – Boost collagen production for firmer, toned skin.

It also includes a proprietary blend of supportive ingredients, such as grape seed extract, Fo ti root, amli fruit extract, goji fruit extract, horsetail extract, Japanese seaweed blend (kombu, nori, and wakame), Haematococcus pluvialis whole algae extract, olive fruit extract, and melon pulp concentrate. These are antioxidants, amino acids, enzymes, and other minerals that help you nourish beautiful hair, nails, and skin.
