Noom is a mobile health and wellness application designed to help users build sustainable habits for long-term weight management and overall lifestyle improvement. Unlike traditional calorie-counting tools, Noom combines nutritional tracking with psychological principles, offering a science-based approach that focuses on behavioral change.
