In the health promotion sector, solutions under the Internet+ can include wearable health tracking devices, mobile health apps, social networks, intelligent data analysis tools, etc. Through the application of these tools and means, the physical parameters, environmental data and behavioral representations of exercise, sleep, diet and nutrition, social activity, mobile phone use habits and other physical parameters, environmental data and behavioral representations of healthy and sub-healthy people are tracked, collected, processed and analyzed, and various dynamic models are established.
These models can be used to assess the physical and mental health of users, trends and compare with demographic health indicators, provide necessary reminders, information feedback, and behavioral incentives to help people develop a good lifestyle (exercise, sleep, diet, etc.), obtain targeted health knowledge and coaching guidance, improve self-health promotion awareness and communication between groups, reduce the risk of chronic diseases, and maintain a healthy state at all times.
For example, for overweight and obese people, one of their core needs is to reduce body weight, thereby reducing the risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and cancer, and improving the quality of life. In the past, most people who were overweight and obese increased calorie consumption and reduced calorie intake by doing daily physical exercise, reasonably adjusting dietary composition and eating habits, etc., in order to lose weight. In this process, due to the lack of convenient tracking and quantification of parameters such as exercise, diet and calories, it is difficult for people to plan a scientific exercise diet plan that is in line with their actual situation through the comparative analysis of calories and weight loss. At the same time, in addition to seeking help from professional fitness trainers and nutritionists, it is difficult to obtain personalized weight loss guidance and intervention at a low cost. In addition, due to the long and tedious process of weight loss, how to stick to exercise and eat reasonably for a long time and receive constant encouragement and help has become one of the main obstacles faced by overweight and obese people.
However, in the Internet+ era, these problems can be solved by the application of wearables and mobile health apps running on smartphones, as well as the ubiquitous wireless and cellular broadband access networks.
It can be seen that the application of solutions under the Internet+ in the health promotion link can realize the redefinition of healthy lifestyle development from many aspects such as self-quantification, personalized guidance, social motivation, and promotion of behavior change.
