Until recently, fitness trackers like FitBit™ and iHealth devices along with numerous other gismo’s have been the “must have” sports device to aid elite athletes to optimize their training to achieve their specific target goals. This is no longer the case. As a general population, we have all become more “health aware”. As we are living longer and with obesity levels extremely high in our country, we know that we need to take steps to look after our own health and our fitness levels. That’s where fitness trackers come into their own as seen in TV3’s “Doctor in the House”.
iHealth devices and fitness trackers use the latest technology to effortlessly monitor fitness related metrics such as distance walked/run, calorie consumption and in some cases heartbeat and quality of sleep. These are types of wearable computers that can send the data to your smartphone or tablet. You may have seen the participants of TV3’s “Doctor in the house” recently? They have been using a range of products from iHealth labs. iHealth labs have a wide range of gadgets and “wearables” tailored to the mainstream population to monitor not only your physical movement but also core body vitals like blood glucose or blood pressure. For people with diabetes this could be life changing. At Pharmhealth, we are proud to be one of only a few retail stockists of iHealth devices in Ireland. They are available in store or on our website www.pharmhealth.com.
