Why Apps are Good For Your Health
Mobile Apps are becoming a major delivery vehicle for health services of all kinds

There's a new jargon term in town: mHealth. The health sector is a huge growth area for mobile apps.

When you think about it, this makes sense, in so many areas. A mobile phone is the perfect place to deliver an app that helps you monitor what you eat, how you exercise, when you take medication or even keep tabs on your heart-rate. The benefit of instant availability from your pocket or handbag is clear. You can look up the calories in that delicious chocolate cake the restaurant is trying to tempt you with. (Chocolate of course is good for you, its practically a vitamin so you should eat the cake anyway). You can feel a glow of virtue when you complete the training regimen for the day set by your cyber trainer. There is a huge and growing range of lifestyle apps on the market, designed to make us look, feel, and live better.
