Staying fit and healthy is an important factor in dealing with Neuromyelitis Optica (NMO). While it may be difficult at times considering the symptoms of NMO, maintaining a fitness regimen and a healthy diet is an important factor in battling the disease. These applications may be useful for patients and/or caregivers to ease the stress of staying fit and eating healthy by tracking your workout progress, showing you new workout ideas or providing you with information on your condition. Suggestions for apps that help NMO patients were received via Facebook and can also be submitted on the NMO Apps and Software page.
