We present an intelligent web-based system, called h-Life, which addresses the monitoring and improvement of health and lifestyle through the provision of customized dietary plans. Additional plan-related services including monitoring, alerting, reminding and evaluation, complement the functionality of the h-Life system. Several innovative components are integrated in order to efficiently manage the storage, access and retrieval of medical and personal data. Based on the latest technologies in intelligent and communication systems, the system provides the user with personalized dietary plans and lifestyle information, tailored to the individual needs. The h-Life system is based on a scalable and interoperable architecture that can be easily extended to accommodate future needs. Apart from a personal health assistant for the end-users, h-Life is a valuable tool for the health professionals that can remotely monitor their customers and manage the medical knowledge utilized by the system.
