  • Publication number: 20050240444
    Abstract: An individualized system and method of mass diagnosis and treatment of obesity that is optionally configurable for a plurality of patients and health providers. Computer and relational data storage systems are used for operating a computer program and a secure web site on an internet. User profiles are assigned for accessing the secure web site using a plurality of computer terminals. Patient data and information are gathered for use in a health risk analysis to determine values for variables in a caloric energy equation. An individualized health provider web page is used to administer a meal plan, an exercise plan and an education plan to influence variables in the caloric energy equation to derive an individualized caloric energy deficit and a starvation response threshold in the patient. Patient compliance information is gathered for use in the health risk analysis and for correlation with the stored data to re-derive the variables.

  • Publication number: 20050240434
    Abstract: A system and method of driving weight management product sales in a multi-level marketing environment using a body impedance data acquisition device, a weight management software program, nutritional supplements and a standardized sales pathway software program, resulting in direct sales, lead generation and new distributor sign up. A prospect's personal information and lean body mass data are input to the weight management computer software program for determining an individualized weight management plan, where the lean body mass data are obtained using the body impedance data acquisition device. The prospect is presented weight management product packages for purchase, individualized according to the derived weight management plan and becomes a client upon purchasing a product package.

  • Patent number: 4895163
    Abstract: The unique system of the present invention provides an accurate valid measaurement of human body composition consisting of fat tissue, lean tissue and body water. The inventive methodology provides a procedure for quantitative measurement of the conductive potential of the body, which is based on the lean tissue content of the body, in a convenient and reliable manner. In more detail, the quantitative measurement in accordance with the present invention is referred to as a "bio-impedance signal." This electrical signal, in ohms, is derived from a means for measuring body impedance component of the system. The resultant signal (three digit number, between 1 and 1000 ohms) is then entered into a modifying means component to accurately predict the body composition of the tested individual. The unique modifying means, in one embodied form, comprises prediction formulas derived from biological data inputs including: a patient's height, weight, age and sex, to determine a "population prediction variable.
