Inspiration

The inspiration behind Health Pulse came from observing the lack of easy-to-access health tools and accurate dietary information for the general public. Many people struggle to understand their fitness levels or manage their diet for common conditions. We wanted to bridge this gap by creating a user-friendly, digital assistant that empowers individuals to take control of their health through data and education.

What it does

Health Pulse is a comprehensive health education and diagnostic platform. It allows users to calculate their BMI (Body Mass Index) and BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) accurately based on their height, weight, and age. Additionally, the app features an extensive Dietary Guide that provides specific food recommendations for common health issues like Diabetes, Gastric problems, and Hypertension.

How we built it

The project was developed using the MeDo AI platform. The technical stack includes: ​Frontend: HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript (utilizing a React-based structure). ​Logic: Custom JavaScript functions were implemented to handle precise mathematical calculations for health metrics. ​AI Integration: Leveraged MeDo’s LLM capabilities to structure the medical database and dietary advice. ​UI/UX: Designed with a clean, medical-themed interface that is fully responsive across Mobile and PC devices.

Challenges we ran into

One of the primary challenges was ensuring the mathematical formulas for BMR and BMI aligned perfectly with both modern medical standards and educational curriculum. We also spent significant time optimizing the UI to ensure that medical information remains readable and accessible on smaller mobile screens while maintaining a professional look.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of building a fully functional health tool in a very short timeframe. Successfully integrating a real-time calculator with a structured content database is a major milestone. We are also proud of implementing a professional disclaimer and footer in both Bengali and English to ensure user safety and credibility.

What we learned

​Throughout this journey, we mastered rapid prototyping using MeDo AI. We learned how to translate complex health data into simple, actionable user interfaces. This project also deepened our understanding of how AI can be used to solve real-world educational and healthcare problems efficiently.

What's next for Untitled

The future of Health Pulse includes integrating an AI Health Assistant Chatbot for real-time consultations. We also plan to add a Calorie Tracker for local food items and a feature that allows users to export their health reports to share with medical professionals.
