Figure Facts launches new app for men’s health

A new app in support of Men’s Health Month, is encouraging men to take control of their health.  Figure Facts His Nutrition app, now available on iTunes, is making it easy for men to track their daily diet and monitor the positive impact it has on their body and overall health.

With more than 25 years of nutrition and weight management counseling, she has an incredible wealth of knowledge of what it takes for an individual to successfully manage his or her health.  She developed Figure Facts to teach the right food formula and take the guesswork out of how much food you should eat each day.
