When you're young like teens or 20s, people usually don't monitor their health. but when you're 30+ you started to watch what you're eating. I think this will do well in 30+ age demographic.
Add 40+ age category as well ^^

Sorry, it's you who do not, or are taken in by the massive moneymaking slimming industry.
It not rocket science.
You look at your daily lifestyle, and let's say given all you do, you burn up 2000 calories.
You eat 1500 calories of food over a period of time. Don't cheat. Stick to that number and you will lose weight.
It's scientifically impossible not to.
Naturally it's best if those 1500 calories come from natural healthy balanced food and not candy and sugar drinks, but thats all there is too it.
Sorry, no magic.
Sounds like you are trying to earn money by over complicating things to baffle people.
What I see about people trying to diet is that they are obsessed over food.
Too many are too fussy and worrying about food too much.
I wanted to lose weight a few years ago. Guess, what I did?
I limited myself to 1000 calories a day (should be eating 2000 easy)
I didn't eat junk (common sense) I ate the most stuff I could do bulk. No reason to eat a chocolate bar when I could have a whole tuna salad for the same calories.
1000 calories a day, strict with myself, and lost weight easy, for me, it was an engine. food it, vs food burned.
Simple, easy and worked.
Biggest problem is walking past all the things in the supermarket and not buying them
No candy, no cookies, only lean white meat, fish, salads, rice, veg curry, rise snacks, no alcohol.
No you aren't a medical doctor. If you were you would realise that hypertension is nearly always symptomless, and only gets symptomatic at malignant hypertension levels.
The fact you stated that "symptoms are what matters" when it comes to BP shows you most definitely aren't a medical doctor. Arn, who is a medical doctor, can back me up here.
You should be ashamed of yourself for spreading disinformation about health and pretending to be a doctor. In fact, one would wonder if that's illegal. Either that or you're a terrible, terrible doctor that doesn't even know basic facts about hypertension.
Source: I'm about to qualify as a doctor in June. (And if that isn't good enough here's what Wikidpedia has to say about it: "Hypertension is rarely accompanied by any symptoms, and its identification is usually through screening, or when seeking healthcare for an unrelated problem.")
Oh boy, another app I can't delete. Newsstand, meet healthbook.
But as a normal, healthy adult, I see this more as a novelty than anything. Measurements are all fine and dandy but what do I need them for? Just simple health tracking?? There's already a ton of things that do this.
It has to do with sustainability. You will not sustain a caloric deficit over long periods and the minute you resume your prior consumption habits you will put all the weight back on, but the kicker is, since in caloric deficits you tend to lose significant amounts of lean body mass, when you end up reverting back to your initial weight, and you will, you will be worse off since you will have less lean body mass and more fat (since putting on muscle is extremely difficult).
As someone that has had a lot of health issues over the last 7 years, I think this is going to be great.
I have sleep apnea (where you stop breathing in your sleep), and some experts think that up to 20% of people have it.
I just finished reading a book on sleep apnea written by a doctor that tried for 3 years to find out what was wrong with her. If you don't fit the male and overweight demographic, most doctors will assume it is something else and not send you for a sleep study.
For me, I had heart surgery 2 years ago and it was around that time I found out I have sleep apnea. Now I know it explains why I have been tired my whole life but didn't know why. To look at me you would have no idea as I skate/Surf/Snowboard etc.
My last words from my heart surgeon was, fix your sleep apnea or I will see you again.
So for some of the young guys on here that have said meh or similar, just be thankful that companies like Apple may help you find out you have a problem way before it becomes more serious.
As someone who is doing a lot of training (triathlon) the iWatch probably will not be very interesting as a sports watch unless it has GPS, ANT+ (for connecting to speed, cadence and power sensors amongst other things) and is waterproof enough for swimming. It would also have to be able to log data without having the phone nearby (a no-go for swim sessions and races).
I'm currently using a Suunto Ambit 2S which, while not having as fancy looks or UI does all of the above and connects to an excellent Web app (Movescount) for tracking and analyzing the exercise sessions. It's not perfect and could look better but does what it needs to do with decent battery life.

Don't you understand what 30+ means? It means 30 plus which includes the 40s, 50s, 60s et al...Add 40+ age category as well ^^
