1. A method for adjudging the effect of consumptions over a period of time on one or more physiological parameters comprising:
- marking consumables with consumable identifiers to identify the consumable;
correlating said consumable identifiers with data pertaining to the contents of said consumables by data processing means;
storing said consumable identifiers coupled with the data pertaining to the contents of said consumables in a first data storage unit;
inputting said consumable identifiers into a second data storage unit upon consumption of said consumables and along with the amount of consumable consumed and the time of consumption;
transmitting the information stored in said second data storage unit to a central processing unit electronically coupled to said first data storage unit;
computationally co-processing the information stored in said first data storage unit with said information stored in said second data storage unit;
computationally resolving physiological algorithms relating one or more physiological parameters to said computationally co-processed information utilizing said computationally co-processed information;
providing a read-out of the effect of consumptions over a period on time on physiological parameters based on said computational resolution of said physiological algorithms.

Abstract
A computer-assisted system and method for adjudging the effect of consumable intakes on physiological parameters wherein a consumer records in a database a plurality of consumable identifiers identifiying consumables consumed, the amounts of each consumable consumed, times of consumption of each consumable, a plurality of physiological measurements and time of physiological measurements, and such information is computationally related to consumption information, such as nutritional information, linked to the consumable identifier in another database.
