Abstract
Embodiments include methods and systems for regulating a user's glucose levels. Systems comprise a processing unit in communication with a glucose monitor, an accelerometer, and a user interface. The glucose monitor generates glucose readings corresponding to the user's glucose levels and the accelerometer generates acceleration readings corresponding to the user's activity. The processing unit determines if the glucose readings indicate a glucose state and whether the acceleration readings indicate an activity state. If the glucose state and the activity state coincide, the processing unit sends a message to the user interface recommending a behavior that would influence the user's glucose level. Methods comprise determining, at a processing unit, if glucose readings indicate a glucose state, if acceleration readings indicate an activity state, whether the glucose state and activity state coincide and, if so, sending a message to a user interface recommending a behavior that would influence the user's glucose level.
