Yes, this! For years I have been complaining about how silly it is that I know far more about the day to day condition of my vehicle than I do about my own bod

  Yes, the fact that I have to physically go to a doctor is absurd. I want real-time feedback of how bad (or good) the meal is that I'm eating right now, as I'm eating it. I want to get warnings and reminders of the vitamins and minerals that I'm low on. Even hydration. Everyone says that if you're thirsty, you're already dehydrated. Getting in the habit of staying hydrated is hard work. Little help here? I suspect that most of this stuff will have to wait for nanobots. Any way we can do this sooner?

    I don't think we need to wait for nanobots, the technology is already here now to accomplish real-time monitoring. Here is one example for blood glucose monitoring implant: http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2010-07/wireless-implantable-glucose-sensor-could-revolutionize-diabetes-treatment http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2010-07/wireless-im...

      Implant is 1.5 inches wide and half an inch thick? No thanks. I'll wait for the nanobots.
