RE: Contest!!!! - Create a Wallpaper for @thehealthylife and win 15 Steem!
Thank you for sharing all this wonderful info, and we love the help you are giving to all those people with morbid obesity, well done!
We cannot give any real medical advise, if that is what you're asking us for. We are simply incentivizing people to be active and move more often, as that is the general recommendation for normal individuals who do not suffer anything that prevents them from doing so.
In terms of wearables, we also have no info on whether any studies have been done on them in terms of health effects, yet if you find them beneficial, and you could be interested in owning one (a Fitbit for example, which we currently support), you might simply get tracked activity and earn rewards for doing that.
Feel free to join our discord and chat with us further well, and please keep doing the amazing things you already are doing! It simply makes us happy and proud!
Finland and a few other countries in Europe currently recognize cell phone brain cancer as a disease and cover it with insurance. But that is about the extent of what I know.
A big part of my coaching it to get people off the idea of tracking in the sense of how you do it. By the time people get to me, they have chronic diseases and can't lift their arms over their head etc.
I completely agree that "normal" healthy people are a different category and that tracking can and does work for them.
I don't see myself ever getting a fitbit or anything like it. What do you use your discord group for?
