With more and more people becoming health-conscious, iPhone apps seem to have chosen the right time to cash in on the current fever. B Healthy U’s Body & Mind Connection, is a new app released on the iPhone.
This app can enable people to live healthier lifestyles by displaying how several lifestyle factors communicate with each other. The program also provides daily diet and exercise tips from top-notch professionals, counting Dr. David Katz, director of the Yale University Prevention Research Center, and Joe Decker, known as ‘The World’s Fittest Man’ after breaking the Guinness World Records 24-Hour Physical Fitness Challenge in 2000. Exercise tips are given by Joe Decker, an ultra-endurance power athlete, fitness trainer and syndicated columnist who has aided several people to lose weight and remain fit.
Mitzi Perdue, Founder of B Healthy U, commented, “I created this app because I wanted to share the benefits that come with a healthier lifestyle. What you eat, how you exercise and how well you sleep can have powerful and unexpected consequences on other aspects of your life. It takes no more than 60 seconds each day to rate these lifestyle factors and, as a result, it can truly change your life.”
Every day, the app can solicit the user to rate, on a scale of one to five, how they have performed on a set of certain lifestyle aspects namely diet, exercise, sleep, hunger, energy, mood, stress and weight. In several people, not having enough sleep may affect their appetites. With others, consuming highly processed foods could develop unmanageable hunger, which may result in weight gain. Once an individual knows about these relationships via the color-coded graphs provided in the app, they can regulate their lifestyle to suit their health and fitness goals in a better way. After using the app every day for around two weeks, the user is given a printable diploma, and following one month, they also receive a graduate degree.
Body & Mind Connection app is presently carrying a price tag of $4.99 and can be downloaded via the Apple App Store.
