It's easier than ever to use your phone to help your health -- and a lot of the time, the best resources are even free. Here are 10 must-have Android apps that will help keep your eating and exercise on track, soothe you when you're stressed, help your child brush his teeth better, even guide you through an emergency. So what are you waiting for? Start downloading!

Calorie Counter and Diet Tracker by MyFitnessPal:

With a nutritional database of almost 600,000 foods, 350 different exercises, multiple trackers and daily reports, this app gives you essential tools for sticking to a healthy eating and exercise plan. It's also linked to a great website and community where you can get support from fellow dieters.

Cost: Free

Digital 3D Yoga:

Bored with your current yoga routine? Traveling and can't hit up your usual yoga studio? Take your practice to the next level -- and on the go -- with more than 1,500 images and descriptions of different positions, along with each move's health benefits. Best for those who are already familiar with yoga basics.

Cost: Free

Five minutes is all it takes to get firmer abs, featuring a routine led by a certified personal trainer that targets all the major muscles. If you like the results, the same company makes daily arm and butt workouts as well -- all gratis.

Toothbrush Helper:

Want your kids to brush for the two minutes recommended for optimal dental health? Just hand them your phone. Silly smiley-face characters make brushing seem like a game. They'll be done before they even think of complaining.
