BEAUTY AND FITNESS FOR THE SOUTH ASIAN WOMAN
January 14, 2010
Gadgets For a Healthy Life

If staying or becoming more healthy has taken over your life, its time to get help. Start the New Year by using the advanced technology available to help you stay fit and control your diet. CitySaheli has found some great gadgets that will help you take control of your health in 2010.

Track the Burn.

Imagine a small gadget you can wear that will track every single calorie you burn. The FitBit is this product.  It contains a 3D motion sensor like the one found in the Nintendo Wii. The FitBit tracks your motion in three dimensions and calculates useful information about your daily activities. With the exception of a few activities, such as biking and weight lifting, the FitBit is something you can wear all day to gain an accurate reflection of the calories you burned, the calories you consumed, the distance you traveled, and more. It even monitors how long you sleep and how many calories were burned during this time. The FitBit will wirelessly transmit your personal data onto an online program so you can conveniently track your results. Paired with the excellent online calorie tracker that comes with the $99 purchase, you have an incredible weight loss machine. The FitBit is currently on back order and will be available mid February.

Fit French Fries?

Want to eat healthier in 2010? If you loved fried foods (we all love our french fries), t-fal has introduced a new way to indulge in fried foods, but without all the fat. The Actifry is a new machine that lets you use a tiny fraction of the oil normally used to get the same crisp result. This type of machine is common in Europe, however this is the first model introduced in the US. The Actrifry is also ideal for the many tasty South Asian fried foods we’ve grown up loving.

CitySaheli sampled the French fries and was pleasantly surprised by the taste and crispiness. Just keep in mind, cooking in this machine takes time – french fries approximately 40 minutes.

Weigh your foods.

Measuring your food and eating the right portion is one of the most important aspects of eating right. Often you may not know the right serving size for your body. Proteins like chicken, tofu and even paneer should be portioned for your needs. Oxo’s Good Grips food scale is sleek, thin and makes measuring your food an easy task!

Measure your serving sizes.

At times do you find yourself eating a little too much namkeen? Or do you overload on your cereal? To make sure you know the amount of dry foods you will consume, use these containers from Zevro. With these, you can keep your food fresh and easily measure one serving size, ensuring you don’t overeat.
