The Wahoo RFLKT is an iPhone-controlled bike computer that wirelessly receives images and data from the iPhone located in the jersey pocket of a cyclist. Mounted to your handlebars, it’s the size of a cycling computer and has side buttons to control the app, screens, start/stop timer, and even music, among other things. The RFLKT weighs just 2 ounces and measures 2.4 inches long by 1.6 inches wide and 0.5 inches thick. The device uses a Bluetooth 4.0 connection and has more than a year of battery life. It’s compatible with the iPhone 4S and iPhone 5.

The INRFOOD app scans food item barcodes through your smartphone’s camera, analyzes the ingredients, and then tells you which are healthy, which you should avoid and which you should eat in moderation by highlighting them in green, red and yellow, respectively. Adjust your settings for specific health concerns: If you have a peanut allergy, for example, the app can warn you not to eat foods that may contain peanuts. Tap the ingredient and you’ll be taken to a new screen with tabs for information, articles and videos, and a discussion forum. It also records the food product and stores it on your “plate” to analyze how often you eat certain ingredients. This brand new app was developed in Durham and is constantly being updated with new foods. As the database of food items expands, the INRFOOD app is going to become a valuable tool for conscientious label-readers.

KIND Nuts & Spices is a line of bars finely crafted from the highest quality whole nuts and some of nature’s most delicious spices. Each seemingly indulgent recipe provides all-natural protein, fiber and only 5 grams of sugar (or less). And nothing artificial. Bars come in Dark Chocolate Nuts & Sea Salt, Dark Chocolate Cinnamon Pecan, KIND Cashew & Ginger Spice and Madagascar Vanilla Almond flavors. My favorite is the Madagascar Vanilla Almond, which has a fresh and tasty combination of mixed nuts (almonds, peanuts, cashews and walnuts) with delicious Madagascar vanilla.
