    Amazon Verified Purchase(What’s this?)

    Our health insurance company sent us an Omron pedometer to track our steps each day. We lost it before we ever got to use it so I ordered this one from Amazon.com. We received it within a few days and it is one of the best pedometers I’ve ever used. It can track your steps and determine which steps are aroebic. You can just slip it in your pocket and forget about it. It is also very simple to upload your information to a computer and track your progress with graphs. It is very simple to use. We also have to upload to a website for our health insurance and it was very easy figure out and upload at the end of each week. This pedometer is definitely worth purchasing.

    This review is from: Omron HEM-670IT Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor with APS (Advanced Positioning Sensor) and Advanced Omron Health Management Software (Health and Beauty)

    I got this monitor to keep track of my blood pressure so that I could give the printed reports to my doctor. I have one that I got from Sharper Image that is easy to use but you can’t upload readings to a computer. The one from Sharper Image was also not very accurate when compared to using a regular doctor grade cuff with a stethoscope. The Omron monitor is much easier to use than the Sharper Image one, is easier to ensure the proper position and the uploading of the readings is very easy. I took the Omron monitor to my doctor to have her calibrate it against her measurements and the Omron monitor was nearly identical. Based on that and the printed reports, I was taken off my blood pressure medication!

    I like what Omron did with this BP monitor.

    Pros:
    Compact
    Accurate
    Easy to read display
    Has memory to log readings over time
    Computer interface to download memory (print or email to your doc.

    Cons:
    Instruction could be clearer
    Included software could have a clearer user interface

    I really like the way it measures the blood pressure AS it pumps up so it never pumps up higher than it needs to to get a pressure reading. Many other BP Monitors pump up to 160-180 then measure the pressure as it bleeds off the air.

    To the Engineers: I’d like to see the next model have a wireless way to transfer the data. I travel which is why I bought a compact monitor. My laptop case has too many cables already and now I have another one. Consider WiFi, Bluetooth, SD card. Also a backlit display would be nice. I would pay more for these features.

    As a former Biomed tech that tested and repaired 100′s of BP Monitors I can say with some authority that this is a winner.

    This device is very simple to use. Read the instructions; you have to position your arm in a certain location close to the heart. The unit detects its proximity and starts working. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because all my machines run Vista and even though the OS recognizes the device, the Omron software does not “see” it as connected. Maybe they will fix this in the next release of the software. For this reason I cannot say anything about the software that came with it. Also, my Doctor said that the electronic meters are not as accurate as the ones doctors use. I told him I was going to bring mine to his office and compare. I will update this review as soon as I do. Overall, I would recommend the unit to anyone that, like me, is on the run all of the time. You don’t even have to keep track of your measurements because the unit keeps about 100 readings in memory.

Walking is Free!

By: K. Dilworth

Walking has many health benefits and it does not cost a thing to do it. For your health and motivation, be determined to fit walking into your schedule even if you can't find the time to do anything else. However, first make sure you have a full physical and get permission from your doctor to engage in this activity. Also, for safety reasons, especially if you are a female, find a safe neighborhood, or a populated park to walk in where there are plenty of other people around. You can also form a walking club with your neighbors, or friends to make it fun. Make it a goal to be accountable to each other to walk at least three times a week. It's great exercise for your heart, can reduce stress, as well as lower your blood pressure, and help you lose weight if you walk consistently. We have included some of our favorite health gadgets on our website which you may find useful in your fitness endeavors. Most of all, just get out and walk. It's fun and it's free!

Next week, I'll share with you specifically why I started walking!
