Abstract: A system for providing a report on vascular health of a user is disclosed. The system includes a toilet with a bowl adapted to receive excreta from the user and a processor. The toilet includes a seat with weight and PPG sensors. BCG data is derived from the weight sensor data. PPG data is derived from the PPG sensor. The processor performs a comparison of the data from the weight sensor and the data from the PPG sensor and preexisting data in a database. The processor then generates a report on the user's vascular health based on the comparison.

Abstract: A toilet is disclosed. The toilet has a bowl adapted to receive excreta, a shelf for receiving feces in the bowl, and one or more sensor for detecting a property of the feces. The property may be related to a user's heath and wellness and may be presented to a person for their review and assessment.
