A wearable health care monitoring system is proposed. Constant monitoring can improve the patientýs quality of life for various health conditions such as diabetes and obesity. This can be achieved by empowering and educating individual patients with proactive mobile computing tools and technologies such as mobile phones, Bluetooth and WAP. Integrating these tools provides a transparent way of monitoring, analysing and modelling their metabolic performance and allows patients to become more responsible for the management of their health conditions. This, in time, could help reduce the workload on health service providers such as the NHS, who are at present struggling to meet the rise in health care demands.
