Abstract

A system and method of monitoring a person'"'"'s health information is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of providing a computer program algorithm accessible by a computer processing device and providing at least one monitor in electronic communication with the computer processing device wherein the monitor is configured to transmit the person'"'"'s physical data to the computer processing device, and the algorithm is configured to store the physical data, average the physical data over one or more predetermined periods of time, and report the physical data in one or more predetermined formats. The computer processing device may be a cellular telephone, tablet computer, laptop computer, desktop computer, server, or networked computing device. The monitor may be any one of a pedometer, a heart rate monitor, a body temperature monitor, a blood glucose monitor, a blood pressure monitor, or a monitor configured to collect physical data from one or more of a person'"'"'s body fluids. In some embodiments, the method is used to monitor a person'"'"'s caloric balance, which may be computed or estimated.

Claims

1. A method of monitoring a person'"'"'s health information comprising the steps of:

(a) providing a computer program algorithm accessible by a computer processing device;

(b) providing at least one monitor in electronic communication with the computer processing device wherein the monitor is configured to transmit the person'"'"'s physical data to the computer processing device;

(c) wherein the algorithm is configured to store the physical data; and

(d) wherein the algorithm is further configured to average the physical data over one or more predetermined periods of time and report the physical data in one or more predetermined formats.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

wherein the computer processing device is a cellular telephone.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is a pedometer.

4. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is a heart rate monitor.

5. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is a body temperature monitor.

6. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is a blood glucose monitor.

7. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is a blood pressure monitor.

8. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is configured to collect physical data from one or more of the person'"'"'s body fluids.

9. A method of monitoring a person'"'"'s caloric balance comprising the steps of:

(a) providing a computer program algorithm accessible by a computer processing device;

(b) providing a monitor in electronic communication with the computer processing device wherein the monitor is configured to transmit the person'"'"'s physical exertion data to the computer processing device;

(c) providing a user interface on the computer processing device wherein the user interface is configured to collect the person'"'"'s food consumption data;

(d) wherein the algorithm is configured to convert the physical exertion data into a caloric output equivalent;

(e) wherein the algorithm is configured to convert the food consumption data into a caloric input equivalent; and

(f) wherein the algorithm is configured to compute a caloric balance for the person from the caloric output equivalent and the caloric input equivalent and display the caloric balance through the user interface.

10. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

providing at least one library of caloric input or output equivalent data accessible by the algorithm.

11. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

wherein the computer processing device is a cellular telephone.

12. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is a pedometer.

13. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is a heart rate monitor.

14. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is a body temperature monitor.

15. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is a blood glucose monitor.

16. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is a blood pressure monitor.

17. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

wherein the monitor is configured to collect physical data from one or more of the person'"'"'s body fluids.

18. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

wherein the food consumption data includes one or more of serving size, calories, sodium, and fiber.

19. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

providing a database in a storage medium configured to store one or more of the physical exertion data, the caloric output equivalent, the food consumption data, the caloric input equivalent, and the caloric balance; and

wherein the user interface is configured to access the database.

20. The method of claim 19, further comprising:

providing a second user interface configured to access the database through a computer network.

21. The method of claim 20, further comprising:

wherein the second user interface is a website.
