Abstract
The present invention is a method and system for using a mobile or desktop computing device, such as a cellular telephone or personal computer, to store an individual'"'"'s health parameters. These health parameters may include blood work, urine tests, etc. and also standard personal factors such as weight, diet habits, medications, allergies, etc. The health parameters can be plotted on color coded graphs. The color-coded parameters will manifest themselves in the form of “trend lines”, which will identify the ‘direction’ the particular health parameters are moving. The invention will allow the health data to be plotted individually or correlated with other parameters to predict an individual'"'"'s “state of health” (SOH). This correlated trending data provides an individual with a means to determine if some type of proactive health measure could be taken to stop a negative trend and prevent more drastic actions, such as medication or surgery.
