Hello Shraddha,

The best way to retrieve tokens for accessing Google services on Android is
to use the Android AccountManager.  We have an example application that uses
the AccountManager to retrieve a token that can be used to access Google
Health at the following address.

http://code.google.com/p/googlehealthsamples/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk%2Fjava%2Fandroid

In this example, the AccountManager returns a token that can be used to
access the Health "ClientLogin" feeds.

Implementing OAuth authorization directly between a mobile device and Health
currently isn't possible since non-anonymous OAuth 1.0 isn't secure without
an intermediary web app to hold domain credentials.  Also, OAuth 2 is not
yet supported by Health.  The AccountManager will get you a valid token,
however.
