Method and arrangement for arranging an information service to determine nutrition and/or medication

Abstract

A healthcare system for personalized healthcare includes a user interface for gathering user related data of nutrition or medicaments consumed by the user, and genetic information of the user. The system also includes a research interface for gathering genetic backgrounds of different illnesses in relation to nutrition or environmental factors, and a health care practitioner interface for gathering user related data of user's health state, personalized treatment or history data. The system provides recommendations of optimal personalized nutrition or medication for the user to reach the optimal nutritive, metabolic and / or health state based on: data of nutrition or medicaments consumed by the user, genetic information of the user, genetic backgrounds of different illnesses in relation to nutrition or environmental factors, user's health state, and personalized treatment or history data of the user. The recommendations are then delivered to the user or health care practitioners via corresponding interfaces.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a method and arrangement for arranging an information service to determine nutrition and / or medication. More specifically, the invention relates to the formation of information related to the suitability of nutrients and / or medical substances for different parties and to the transmission of information between different parties and systems.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]In the past decades, the average life expectancy of human beings has grown considerably because of the advanced medical methods of treatment. At the same time, new diseases and illnesses have come out, such as different kinds of allergies, especially to foodstuffs. In addition, obesity has become common especially in developed countries, in which the daily motion of humans has continuously decreased, for example, due to work performed by humans becoming lighter and due to automation. At the same time, humans' eating habits have changed, for example, as so...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention is a healthcare system that provides personalized healthcare and nutrition and medication information services. The system analyzes information about the user's genetic properties, possible illnesses, environmental conditions, and nutrition and medication intake to determine the optimal nutrition and medication for the user. The system is mobile and can be used at any location. It also allows medical professionals to monitor the user's eating habits and make real-time adjustments to the nutrition information. The system can also help restaurants prepare food portions that are optimal for the user's metabolic state, energy consumption, and allergies. Overall, the invention provides a more efficient and effective approach to healthcare and nutrition management.

Problems solved by technology

In addition, obesity has become common especially in developed countries, in which the daily motion of humans has continuously decreased, for example, due to work performed by humans becoming lighter and due to automation.

Although specific special foodstuffs and health foods are now in good supply, nevertheless, the major part of humans eats in an unhealthy or unsuitable way, for example, in relation to the energy consumption, illness or latent illness, and they do not think about the nutrients contained in the nutrition they consume or their effects on their health.

However, monitoring the nutrients contained in the consumed nutrition is often considered difficult or laborious, and it is only thought to be relevant mostly for persons following a special diet for one reason or another.

In some cases, it may also be difficult for people to monitor the nutrient contents in the consumed food and / or drink or other substances contained in foods, which may, for example, cause illnesses or make allergies worse.

For example, people may have difficulties in remembering or generally in knowing all nutrients harmful for them in the foodstuffs, in which case, for example when shopping, it may be difficult to know the suitability of a certain product.

Especially, if one thinks of the overall effect of nutrients acquired in one day or even one week, it is almost impossible to find out the suitability, goodness and / or effect of a certain foodstuff in relation to the overall effect of nutrients obtained in one day or one week.

However, arrangements according to the known solutions contain some drawbacks.

However, the arrangements according to the solutions do not take into account, for example, the user's genetic genotype and the special requirements caused by this to the nutrient contents, additives, nutrients and / or their proportions in the user's diet.

Further, the systems according to known solutions are clumsy, due to the inflexibility of their user interfaces.

However, the user interfaces of the known solutions restrict the user's moving, in which case situations may often occur in which it is not possible to unambiguously check the nutrients in a certain foodstuff and / or the suitability of these nutrients for the so-called user.

In addition, in the arrangements of the known solutions, it is difficult to control or keep up-to-date the amounts and proportions of all nutrients consumed by the user, due to the place-bound arrangements according to the known solutions.

In the state-of-the-art solutions, it is further difficult for the medical personnel treating the user to monitor the supply of nutrients and / or medicaments consumed by the user.

In addition, the state-of-the-art solutions have not presented an effectively working solution, in which doctors, nurses or the user would be offered a possibility to easily change, for example, the list of substances harmful for the user in the nutrition information system.

The problem of the state-of-the-art solutions is that the arrangements are rigid and inflexible, for example, in a situation, in which the user suddenly gets allergy, and the database of foods suitable or unsuitable for the user should be updated fast.
