GoBe: Is this actually the best fitness band ever?
, We all do it don’t we gents. We set out to slim down and lose at least a part of our beer bellies that have accumulated over the years, and we end up taking short cuts and cheating. Worst still, is when you think you are eating the right things, yet the weight doesn’t seem to shift. Well, with the GoBe you will never be left in the dark or allowed to cheat ever again.
This clever fitness band is the first and only “way to automatically measure calorie intake—through your skin, by reading the glucose in your cells.” Without you having to lift a muscle, GoBe measures exactly what calories are consumed and burned as well as hydration, sleep, stress levels and more which can all be viewed through your smart phone.
The fitness and health bands have been on the market for a while and are steadily gaining popularity and exposure, but never before has all the information been so effortless and accurate. So how is it done? Well, when the user wears the band, the three types of sensors -pulse, impedance and accelerometers – measure pulse speed, fluid levels in the tissues and movements respectively.
HealBe, the makers behind GoBe are currently raising money for the production of the $189 band and so far have raised $665,662 more than six times their target goal of $100,000.
