I was talking with my kid who uses Sweatcoin as an incentive for him to do exercise every day. It really works. Because my kid is now running more and collecting coins and feeling happy. The program is simple, the more you exercise, the more reward you will receive from this app on your cell phone. Walking running swimming, whatever...you got rewards.
Why not?
I asked him, why the government (Canada) spends billions on health insurance purchasing drugs at every high price, but not running a program to encourage people to keep fit, something like sweatcoin?
He said, the health insurance money goes to the pharmaceutical, and that is how this country run. If people become healthier by exercising more, the industry will not allow!
True, and sad. The public health system is so broken.
