Abstract

A system for maintaining, tracking, and correlating personal health information with one or more parameters that include gastronomic information, real time ingestion of food, ingestion of medications, ingestion of supplements, adverse allergic reactions, symptoms, health indicators related to the user, recommended procedures, recommended treatment, recommended medications, and notification information for use in an emergency based on user profile. The system includes maintaining the personal health information on the mobile device and a central server. The system further includes maintaining, tracking, monitoring, accessing and correlating personal health information with general medical and gastronomic information from at least one Internet server utilizing the mobile device.

Claims

1. A system comprising:

a mobile device;

a central server; and

a customer profile coupled to the mobile device and the central server and comprising data of a user selected from a group consisting of ingestion of food, ingestion of medication, ingestion of supplements, ailments, adverse allergic reactions, symptoms, gastronomic indicators, health indicators related to the user, recommended procedures, recommended treatment, recommended medications, and notification information for use in an emergency,

wherein one or more of the mobile device and the central server is configured for acquiring and correlating data related to one or more of ingestion of food, medication, and-supplements with data of the customer profile,

wherein the mobile device is configured to output, in response to the correlating, monitoring and control information relating to the ingestion of food, medications, and supplements.

2. A system comprising:

a mobile device including a processor coupled to a gastronomic component, the gastronomic component configured to generate a request for a first set of gastronomic data; and

a server coupled to the mobile device and coupled to a plurality of sources of gastronomic data, the server configured to retrieve a second set of gastronomic data from at least one of the plurality of sources in response to the request, wherein the second set of gastronomic data includes data relating to a profile of the user, the server configured to generate the first set of gastronomic data from at least a portion of data of the second set using the profile, the server configured to transfer the first set of gastronomic data to the mobile device for display.

3. The system of claim 2, wherein the profile includes data of one or more of preferred foods, food costs, food allergies, medications, supplements, medical personnel, and medical procedures, wherein a data type of the data includes one or more of audio, video, photographic, and text.

4. The system of claim 2, wherein the second set of gastronomic data includes data of one or more of food, recipes, food services, food preparation, beverages, dining facilities, food costs, and menus.

5. The system of claim 2, wherein the server is configured to generate the first set of gastronomic data by parsing the second set of gastronomic data using the profile of the user.

6. The system of claim 2, wherein one or more of the mobile device and the server are configured to generate gastronomic instructions using the profile and the first set of gastronomic data, wherein the gastronomic instructions include one or more of health maintenance instructions, health management instructions, and personal safety instructions, wherein the mobile device is configured to display the gastronomic instructions.
