a method for measuring a health proactivity status of a human is disclosed . the method includes obtaining multiple physical characteristics associated with the human , generating a health - related metric based upon the characteristics , periodically obtaining the multiple characteristics associated with the human , periodically generating the health - related metric based upon the periodically obtained characteristics , comparing the periodically generated health - related evaluations to determine change over the course of a defined time , and dynamically determining an overall proactivity score for health of the human based upon the comparisons .
