A while back I saw that the Normatec boots were HSA eligible and I was wondering what other neat devices fall into that category? Anyone have any neat options as the year winds up? ---

> [@Mikeferguson1980](#): > > saw that the Normatec boots were HSA eligible Are there conditions attached to that? We recently bought a high-end massage and it’s The. Best. Ever. Should have bought one years ago. ---

I don’t think so but I bought them before I knew this so I’m not sure ---

I thought stuff like Normatec and massage chairs were not eligible unless you had a doctors orders to use for treatment to a condition. And something about HSA vs FSA. But I’m not an accountant or versed in the intricacies of IRS rules and regulations. ---

Best thing to buy with HSA are index funds… now if only the rules allowed bikes! ---

I mixed up the two acronyms, I was thinking more FSA than HSA, the normative website says they are good to go but I also don’t know the rules ---

My understanding is that for HSA items, you absolutely need a Rx from a doc to use your savings for it. For a FSA item, they need to be del a red “FSA eligible” but don’t necessarily require a Rx to use your FSA dollars. (side pitch - everyone who has FSA $ to burn should go buy a blood pressure monitor, specifically a CVS or Rite Aid branded model, or the unit available at Costco. My pension fund thanks you in advance​:crazy\_face:🤪🤪) ---

I was disappointed by the result… but the more I think about it what did I really expect? You just get a list of foods to eat and not to eat. You also take a huge survey, and I believe that the survey has a larger impact on the foods than the actual test does. I had a couple red flags in my analysis like high TMA and should avoid choline I guess. But idk it didn’t really feel insightful in any way. Just eat veggies is basically the recommendation.
