  • Patent number: 7917373
    Abstract: The present invention is an interactive process and system for formulating a unique digestible physical enhancer for an individual by way of a computer system by displaying one or more statements to an individual using a client's computer, wherein the statements comprise potential formula ingredients. A server device then receives one or more responses from the client computer indicating proposed formula ingredients chosen by the individual and amounts of formula ingredients chosen by the individual. An absorption ability is determined for the proposed formula based upon proposed formula ingredients chosen by individual and amounts of formula ingredients chosen by individual. The individual has the ability to tailor the enhancer by performing the following as many times as needed. Upon receiving approval of proposed unique formula by the individual, the approved unique formula is processed by server device and the approved unique formula is produced for the individual.
