Healthkeeper Infrastructure Needed for Gen Z
Gen Z will soon make up most of India's workers, but many are already feeling tired and unhealthy.
They need a system called a healthkeeper to help them stay healthy.
This system uses small devices to check their health, collects data to make smart decisions, and uses computers to give them advice before they get sick.
The government and private companies are starting to build this system, but it needs to be expanded so everyone can use it.
If India does this, Gen Z will be healthy and productive when they are older.
Gen Z will dominate India's workforce by 2047 but faces mental and metabolic health risks.
A healthkeeper system is needed to monitor, nudge, and intervene before health breaks down.
Key levers include accessible technologies, policy frameworks, and AI systems.
IoT devices like smart patches and wearables can transform healthcare by enabling continuous monitoring.
Data lakes and AI can detect early signs of health issues and provide timely interventions.
