This invention relates generally to a method and an apparatus for remote health monitoring of activity of daily living of patients with Type-2 Diabetes. In particular, it relates to a method of capturing vital signs data (Blood-Glucose values, weight) from medical devices, a variety of ambient sensors (on/off sensors, motion sensors, pressure-pad sensors), a body-wearable sensor (arm-band with accelerometer, stress and sleep measurements), and food/diet information uploaded via a web-based interface, then storing all the data in real-time on a secured server, and then processing it to generate short text-messages delivered via cell-phones, iPads or other ambient displays. These messages are designed to be persuasive in nature to alter human behavior. The system can also generate from the data health newsletter that is customized for the patient to educate, inform and empower the patient.
