Health monitoring and coaching system

Abstract

A system is disclosed that monitors participants in health-related programs, such as weight loss or exercise programs, and that provides automated, personalized health coaching to the program participants. The system includes breath analysis devices that are used by the program participants to generate ketone measurements, and includes a mobile application that runs on mobile devices of the participants and communicates with corresponding breath analysis devices. The system operates generally by monitoring ketone levels (such as acetone levels) and other attributes of the participants and by making personalized, machine-generated changes or updates to such programs to maintain program effectiveness and engagement. In some embodiments the system uses primary and secondary process flows to collect from the participants information that is used to select or recommend health program modifications.
