At the same time and unrelated, we are also witnessing a growing increase in the decreasing health and wellness of people in minority communities especially with regard to increase in chronic conditions such as diabetes and obesity. Thus, there exists an opportunity to leverage these IoT technologies to try to support better minority health and wellness. This chapter explores this opportunity.
