Abstract: Embodiments of this invention include systems and methods for developing individualized dietary and health improvement plans based on an individual's intestinal microbiome and digestive activity. More particularly, the invention is related to a system providing a hydrogen and/or methane sensor device and a wireless platform in communication with the sensor device to periodically analyze the individual's metabolic activity in correlation with their gut microbiome and a personal database to provide personalized feedback to the individual of treatment plans and general techniques that can be used to improve the individual's general health and well being. The systems and methods further include a system for analyzing the hydrogen and/or methane levels in the individual's exhalations or flatulence in light of the individual's intestinal microbiome.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include systems and methods for capturing crowd wisdom to be tested for individualized treatment plans. These systems and methods include data mining crowd sourced health related information and unstructured medical narratives and storytelling to identify treatment plans and general techniques that individuals with chronic diseases/symptoms, including but not limited to IBD and other immune invisible neglected and stigmatized diseases, use to improve their general health and wellbeing. A system for testing the treatments effectiveness in a population and then in an individual is also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention is related to a system for treating irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis (collectively, inflammatory bowel disease, or “IBD”) by determining a number of indicators, including genetic markers, gene expression levels, levels of certain compounds in the gut or feces, hydrogen and/or methane levels, and concentrations of particular bacteria in the gut or feces, and correlating one or more such indicators with symptoms in test subjects with IBD; and correlating diet, drugs, supplements or other therapy, with alleviation of IBD symptoms. The correlations established in the test subjects are confirmed or refuted for individuals suffering IBD, and the treatments established as reducing symptoms are supported through messaging and compliance is verified by monitoring the indicators.
