Top 5 Most useful Health Apps for Android
There are so many applications available at the Android Market about health and Fitness. You would even find some of them are reviewed even on Mashable. So what is the point of writing this Topic anyway? Because there is a difference between the “Apps” and “Useful Apps”. So here I am with this Topic. I am going to cover top 5 most useful health applications so far. It is always good to have the resources that can eventually motivate yourself to work out or even provide a handy reference to diet when you need one.

The app covers searching for foods including areas for general food, popular and supermarket brands, restaurant chains and even the ability to scan the barcode on food packages. Addition to all that, you can keep a calorie log in the form of a “food habits journal,” you also can keep track of how and when you exercise, and of course, you can monitor your progress.
