Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Fitness Products: I won't comment on a specific brand - but fitness products such as these can be helpful in motivating many people to address health issues such as sleep and activity level. It can provide valuable feedback to keep them in tune with their actual versus their ideal lifestyle.
