Wearable fitness trackers

Wearable

Experts say that in the near future you'll receive a full diagnosis and cure from your fitness or maybe we can call it a 'wellness' tracker before you even realize that you're sick. While this may seem like science fiction, it's on the brink of becoming a reality. Digita, a company focued on health innovation, is set to embark on a path of radical transformation in the health and wellness sector and in doing so it will help us to overcome some of the most significant challenges we face in health care.
