Healthy Habits: Superfoods and Diet Apps

You may or may not have heard of "Superfoods" recently. Superfoods are foods that are particularly healthy, due to high levels of things like Omega-3s or antioxidants. Salmon, blueberries, spinach, yogurt, and nuts are just some of the foods on this list, and if you're trying to lose weight - or just be healthier - it's a good idea to incorporate them into your diet.

There are also many diet apps for smartphones out there. There are a lot of benefits to using apps - it's more convenient and less expensive than signing up for a diet plan, but you still get ideas, tips, and tools, such as menus and workout ideas.

Now there's an app that combines both. Super Diet Genius is available for $3.99, and generates daily and weekly diet plans with exact portion sizes of Superfoods based on your build, weight loss goals, and even what foods you have in your kitchen. Using the top 100 Superfoods, the app customizes your diet based on your weight, height, gender, age, activity level, rate of weight loss, and even food preferences. You can see what it looks like or check out a video to see it in action.
