Entrepreneurial Idea:

HR&BP is an app that allows its users to track their heart rates and blood pressures. You will create an account where you provide height, weight, and dietary habits. Once you have provided sufficient information, you may hold your mobile device to your chest to receive a digital display of your heart rate and blood pressure. The app will then give you a schedule of your weekly workouts and what heart rate you should keep your heart at while working out. If you are not exercising proficiently, your mobile device will give you a warning.

Our health and obesity problems can be directly related to social media. Programs such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram have transformed social interactions from a luxury to a convenience.

A few years ago in order to see somebody, you had to walk to go see them. Now you don’t even have to move from your bed. When you had to move to go see someone, you would have to participate in physical activities. These activities would release endorphins throughout the body, allowing you to feel well and burn calories. Today, people are relying on social media to do all the physical work for them. This in turn, causes the metabolism to almost reach a stagnant stage where no calories are being burned. This results in a growing number of obese people.

The hearts and Blood Pressure app (HR&BP) allows the user to take daily readings of their body health and chart their results against previous days. This app will give its users an idea of where they are, based on age, sex, etc., and where they should be. This will be a great tool in the success of fighting global obesity.

As you can see, this app can be a useful tool in the prevention of health issues. It could create better, healthier lives among our populations. HR&BP is not just an app, it is a solution.
