Overview

The Health Calculator API is a versatile tool designed to facilitate various health-related calculations and metrics. Developed with precision and user-centricity in mind, this API aims to provide accurate insights into body composition, nutritional needs, fitness goals, and more. Whether you are a healthcare professional, fitness enthusiast, or individual seeking personalized health insights, the Health Calculator API offers a comprehensive solution tailored to your needs.


Key Features

  • A Body Shape Index (ABSI): Assess body shape and health risks.
  • Adjusted Body Weight (AjBW): Calculate ideal body weight for individual health goals.
  • Body Adiposity Index (BAI): Estimate body fat percentage for improved health tracking.
  • Body Frame Size Index (BFSI): Determine body frame size and tailor fitness plans.
  • Body Mass Index (BMI): Measure body fat based on height and weight.
  • Body Fat Percentage: Calculate precise body fat composition.
  • Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): Understand daily energy expenditure at rest.
  • Daily Caloric Needs (DCN): Customize daily calorie intake for weight management.
  • Daily Water Intake (DWI): Ensure optimal hydration levels for health and fitness.
  • Fat-Free Mass Index (FFMI): Assess muscle development and fitness progress.
  • Target Heart Rate (THR): Set target heart rates for effective workouts.
  • Macronutrients Distribution: Balance nutrition with insights into carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
  • Ideal Body Weight (IBW): Calculate ideal weight ranges for health optimization.
  • US Army Body Fat Calculator: Calculate body fat percentage based on the US Army standards.
  • US Navy Body Fat Calculator: Determine body fat percentage using the US Navy method.
  • Estimated Average Glucose (eAG): Estimate average blood glucose levels over a specified period.
  • Estimated Energy Requirement (EER): Calculate the daily energy intake required for maintaining energy balance.
  • Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE): Determine total energy expenditure including basal metabolic rate and physical activity level.
  • Basal Energy Expenditure (BEE): Calculate the energy expended at rest without any additional activity.
  • Total Energy Expenditure (TEE): Assess the total energy expended throughout the day, including basal metabolic rate and physical activity.
  • Micronutrient Requirements: Calculate daily requirements for essential vitamins and minerals based on individual characteristics.
  • MediMate Stroke Prediction: Introduce the MediMate AI Model endpoint for Stroke Prediction, offering accurate predictions on the likelihood of an individual having a stroke based on health-related features.
  • MediMate Calorie Burn Prediction: Introduce the MediMate Calorie Burn Prediction endpoint, leveraging state-of-the-art machine learning to estimate calorie burn during exercise routines.

What is it?

Introducing our MediMate AI Model endpoint for Stroke Prediction! This powerful tool allows users to predict the likelihood of an individual having a stroke based on several health-related features. Our machine learning model, meticulously trained on a stroke prediction dataset, delivers accurate predictions with ease.

What’s New?

Introducing the MediMate Calorie Burn Prediction endpoint! This cutting-edge feature enables users to estimate the number of calories burned during exercise routines. Our state-of-the-art machine learning model takes individual characteristics such as gender, age, height, and weight, as well as exercise parameters like duration, heart rate, and body temperature to provide precise calorie burn estimates during a 1 to 30 minutes exercise in kilocalories (kcal).
