Abstract: A method and system for generating a personalized health management recommendation for a user. During operation, the system obtains first physiological data generated by a wearable device worn by the user that indicates a physiological condition of the user. The system then generates a prediction model for the user based on the first physiological data. Next, the system obtains real-time physiological data generated by the wearable device. The system may generate a prediction by analyzing the real-time physiological data to determine whether the user's physiological condition exceeds a threshold parameter according to the prediction model. Upon determining that the threshold parameter has been exceeded, the system may select a recommendation and send the recommendation message to the user's mobile device.
