Last month I saw the academy Award-nominated documentary Food Inc. It's only free-range beef and chicken for me from now on. With the movie fresh in my mind, I asked several Digital Health Summit panelists what more can be done to make eating behaviors healthier.
It's challenging. Gadgets are good at tracking physical activity but recording food intake is a manual process subject to error and cheating.
Dr. L. Miguel Encarnacão of Humana said there are food intake sensors under development, but not available yet. Until then digital health care won't offer true management of both exercise and diet.
