System and method for quantifying a health capacity of a biological system

Abstract

Systems are described for measuring, recording, transmitting, accessing, and using an array of physical and physiological measurements that quantify states of complex adaptive systems, such as biological systems, more particularly the state is reflected in a metric designated health capacity. These measurements may be used, for example, for the pre-symptomatic detection and interception of disease states in a biological system. In one aspect, the system comprises a wearable device configured to measure, substantially simultaneously, an array of water-associated metrics, preferably at multiple loci on the biological system and as a function of time. The systems may further comprise using a scalable technology platform to identify, from the array of data across multiple systems, preferably compared to a training data set, utilizing machine readable instructions, to determine and / or predict health states, including the health capacity, of the biological system and to generate recommendations, including modification or nutrition, sleep, physical or mental inputs for the improvement of health for the biological system.
