Publication number: 20140324454Abstract: Methods and systems enable healthcare providers to treat a medical condition of a patient using a processor that may receive assessment data of the patient, which may include a health history and results from at least one diagnostic test. Treatment of the medical condition may also include using the processor to evaluate the received assessment data for identifying a medical condition of the patient and a metabolite that affects the medical condition, to identify a probiotic that regulates the metabolite, to develop a formula for a personalized medication that includes the identified probiotic based on the identified probiotic and the patient's medical records, and to send the formula for the personalized medication to a manufacturing site server for use in manufacturing the personalized medication.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2014Publication date: October 30, 2014Inventors: Michael F.

Patent number: 8538094Abstract: An objective measure of human QOL is determined by a QOL quantification system. The QOL quantification system comprises a QOL rules engine, a QOL measure datastore, a score data archive, a user computing device, and a network. The QOL measure datastore comprises quantifiable measures of QOL of a QOL factor. The QOL rules engine comprises instructions for receiving user data indicative of a plurality of attributes of a selected QOL factor of the user, obtaining measures of QOL from the QOL measures datastore associated with the selected QOL factor, evaluating the user data against the QOL measures of the selected QOL factor, determining a user score indicative of the QOL of the selected QOL factor of the user, storing the user score in the score data archive, and comparing the user score to a score stored in the score data archive. The QOL rules engine may also suggest change options to one or more QOL factors to improve the user score.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2011Date of Patent: September 17, 2013Assignee: Youdocs Beauty, Inc.Inventors: Michael F. Roizen, Mehmet C. Oz, Jennifer L. Roizen, Jeffrey D. Roizen
