Earlier this month, we wrote about some of the most innovative digital health gadgets to come out of this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas (breathing device that assistss with weight loss, anyone?). And that’s just a small portion of the list from the 500 vendors that showcased some of the world’s biggest and most impressive tech devices that will be hitting the shelves in 2019. From kettlebells that count your reps as you go to at-home laser skincare treatments, here’s what else you should be keeping an eye out in the world of health, fitness and beauty:
