Roots of Life is a Windows Phone 8 medical application that provides recommendation for ideal body measurements as well as recommended dosages of medicine.

You begin by entering what you know about yourself (or your patience), such as weight, height, and age. The more information you enter, the more and better calculations it can provide. For example, my ideal weight for my height and age is – well, never mind about that (cough, shuffle, look away).

This app is no replacement for advice from a doctor or other health professional, but it does provide the sources on which recommendations are based, which makes it a good starting point for health care or good supplemental information from your health professional.
