Abstract
Since 2012, the author has been collecting his body weight and finger-piercing glucose values each day. In addition, he accumulates medical conditions data including a combination of data for blood pressure, heart rate, and blood lipids along with lifestyle details of diet, exercise, sleep, stress, water intake and daily routine details. Based on the collected big data, he further organized them into two main groups. The first group is medical conditions (MC) with 4 categories: weight, glucose, BP, and blood lipids. The second group is lifestyle details (LD) with 6 categories: food & diet, exercise, water intake, sleep, stress, and daily routines. He collects his daily data and then calculates a unique combined score for each MC and LD with their 10 categories. The combined scores of the 2 groups, 10 categories, and 500+ elements constitute an overall “metabolism index (MI) model”. This MI model includes the root causes for 6 lifestyle inputs and 4 symptoms of diseases including the rudimentary chronic diseases: obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. It serves as the foundation and building block for his additional research work expanded into various diseases associated with different organs. As we know, lifestyle details cause rudimentary chronic diseases which further influence more complicated diseases, such as heart problems (CVD & CHD), chronic kidney disease (CKD), stroke, diabetic retinopathy (DR), neuropathy, hypothyroidism, and others. Some genetic conditions and lifetime unhealthy habits, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, illicit drug use would account for approximately 15% to 25% of the root cause for rudimentary chronic diseases & their complications, and cancers. In addition to the genetic conditions, lifetime bad habits, and lifestyle details, some environmental factors, such as radiation, air and water pollution, food poison and pollution, toxic chemicals, and hormonal therapy, can also contribute to the causes for a variety of cancers. All of the above-described chronic diseases fall into the category of “symptoms” which are resulted from the “root-causes” of poor and unhealthy lifestyles.
