Philips heart health program
Philips heart health is a new app-based program aimed at reducing lifestyle-induced risk factors for cardiovascular disease. It provides users with a personalized plan based on medical guidelines and their health profile. Its comprehensive approach addresses not only individual factors (activity, nutrition, sleep, stress) but also their interconnectivity to better support lifestyle change. Clinically validated measurements from an ecosystem of medical grade connected health devices, such as the Philips health watch, help users in their everyday decision making. Psychology-based guidance keeps them motivated and committed to their heart health journey.

Philips uGrow* parenting platform

To help parents give their children the best start in life, the Philips uGrow parenting platform captures data from connected devices, such as Philips’ smart baby monitor and smart thermometer, combines it with information such as feeding and sleeping patterns, and provides personalized feedback, advice on what to expect, and assurance that development is on track. Recognizing that every baby is unique, uGrow creates a highly personalized supportive environment around babies and their parents. It also connects via the Philips HealthSuite to family doctors and pediatricians to help with informed decision making.

Philips OneBlade
OneBlade is a new hybrid styler that can trim, shave and create clean lines and edges. It is specially designed for the increasing number of millennials who regard personally styled facial hair as an essential part of their persona. For the first time, they can shave any length of hair with one stroke.

In addition to those highlighted above, other products being showcased by Philips at this year’s IFA include new domestic appliances, coffee makers, personal care and home monitoring solutions.
