  For example, the CPU 27 of the information processing apparatus 2 can execute the V.P based on the data stored in the RAM 23 described above. The necessary intake of A is 1,800 mg, The necessary intake of B1 is 1,500 mg; The necessary intake of B2 is 2,100 mg. The required intake of B12 is set to 960 mg and stored in the intake status table TA3. In addition, the CPU 27 is a V. B1 has a weight of 60, V.I. The weight of B2 is stored as 120 in the intake situation table TA3.

  In addition, the CPU 27 weights the necessary intake amount to obtain V.V. A correction required intake of A is 1,800 mg, The corrected necessary intake of B1 is 1,560 mg; The corrected necessary intake of B2 is 2,220 mg. The corrected necessary intake amount of B12 is set to 960 mg and stored in the intake state table TA3.

  In addition, the CPU 27 may, for example, detect the V.D. 1,700 mg of A, V.I. 1,450 mg of B1, V.I. B2 2500 mg, V.I. When 600 mg of B12 is ingested, V.sub. A deficiency of 100 mg (A); The deficiency of B1 is 110 (mg); The deficiency of B12 is set to 360 (mg). Only B2 is stored in the ingestion status table TA3 as being in excess of 280 (mg).

  Further, the CPU 27 divides the excess / deficiency by the necessary intake amount to obtain V.V. The degree of deficiency of A is -5.6%. B1 deficiency is -7.1%; The deficiency degree of B2 is + 12.6%. The deficiency degree of B12 is set to -37.5% and stored in the intake situation table TA3.

  The CPU 27 collects these data as an intake status table TA3 and stores it in the auxiliary storage unit 24.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram showing a storage example of the body part master MA5. The body part master MA5 is preset by the administrator and stored in the auxiliary storage unit 24. The body part master MA5 stores the nutrients, the body parts affected by the lack of nutrients, and preset threshold values in association with each other. The threshold value is set separately for the first to third threshold values.

  When functioning as the state determination unit 277, the CPU 27 of the information processing device 2 compares the deficiency degree and the threshold value for each nutrient, and extracts the nutrients and body parts that satisfy the deficiency degree ≧ the threshold value from the body part master MA5. Further, the CPU 27 determines whether the degree of deficiency ≧ first threshold, whether the degree of deficiency ≧ second threshold, or the degree of deficiency ≧ third threshold.

  In the case of the above-described example, the CPU 27 performs V.C. The degree of A deficiency is -5.6%. B1 deficiency is -7.1%; B2 deficiency is + 12.6% and V. Since the degree of deficiency of B12 is -37.5%, it is applied to the body part master MA5 in FIG. A degree of deficiency of A ≧ V. A first threshold of A deficiency, V. B deficiency ≧ V. B1 deficiency first threshold, V. B12 deficiency ≧ V. It is determined that the third threshold is insufficient for B12.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram showing a display example of the intake status screen. The intake status screen is transmitted from the information processing device 2 to the communication terminal device 1 and output to the screen W of the communication terminal device 1. The intake status screen includes a simulation period, an intake status list, and a body image that schematically shows the body.

  The CPU 27 of the information processing device 2 reads the simulation period in the body information DA1 stored in the auxiliary storage unit 24 to the intake status screen, and uses the intake status table TA3 data stored in the auxiliary storage unit 24 as the intake status list. Read out on the intake status screen.

  Further, the CPU 27 color-codes the excess / deficiency in the intake status list according to the threshold level for each nutrient determined by the state determination unit 277. For example, the first threshold level is yellow, the second threshold level is orange, the third threshold level is red, and when it is excessive, the color classification follows a rule defined as green. The rules are set in advance and stored in the auxiliary storage unit 24. In the case of the above-described example, the CPU 27 performs V.C. A and V. Since the degree of deficiency of B ≧ the first threshold value, the excess / deficiency amount is set to yellow. Since the degree of deficiency of B12 ≧ the third threshold value, the excess / deficiency amount is red, Since B2 is excessive, the excess / deficiency is color-coded in green.

  In addition, the CPU 27 receives the body image of the subject from the outside and reads it on the ingestion status screen, and superimposes the body part satisfying the degree of deficiency ≧ threshold value determined by the state determination means 277 on the body screen. Further, the CPU 27 color-codes the overlapping portion according to the threshold level for the portion determined by the state determination unit 277. In the example described above, the CPU 27 colors the liver in red and the eyes in yellow.

  The CPU 27 transmits the ingestion status screen generated in this way to the communication terminal device 1. The communication terminal device 1 outputs the ingestion status screen received from the information processing device 2 via the screen W. As a result, the subject can visually confirm the intake of nutrients based on the currently ingested food and the dietary supplement. A series of processing corresponds to the dietary supplement output means of the present invention.

  FIG. 16 is a diagram showing a display example of the supplement information screen. The supplement information screen is transmitted from the information processing device 2 to the communication terminal device 1 and output to the screen W of the communication terminal device 1. The supplement information screen includes a list of deficient nutrients for each part, a list of supplements currently used by the subject, and a list of recommended supplements.

  For each body part, the CPU 27 reads out the nutrients satisfying the degree of deficiency ≧ threshold value determined by the state determination unit 277 to the supplement information screen. In addition, the CPU 27 reads out the supplement information screen as a list in association with the deficiency and deficiency stored in the intake situation table TA3 for each nutrient. Further, the CPU 27 color-codes the shortage amount in the list according to the threshold level for each nutrient determined by the state determination unit 277.

  In addition, the CPU 27 reads the manufacturer name and product name in the supplement intake history table TA2 stored in the auxiliary storage unit 24 and the input field for continuation or cancellation as a list and reads them on the supplement information screen. This list corresponds to a list of supplements currently used by the subject.

  The CPU 27 transmits the supplement information screen generated in this way to the communication terminal device 1. The communication terminal device 1 outputs the supplement information screen received from the information processing device 2 to the screen W. The subject can visually confirm the deficiency of nutrients that cannot be ingested by the currently used supplement via the supplement information screen.

  Thereafter, when a check is input to the supplement that is desired to be continued from the list of currently used supplements via the supplement information screen, the communication terminal device 1 generates a continuation instruction for the checked supplement, and the information processing device 2 to send.

  The CPU 27 of the information processing device 2 receives the continuation instruction from the communication terminal device 1 and recalculates the intake amount of each nutrient that can be consumed only with the supplement that is continued. The CPU 27 adds the recalculated intake amount to the intake amount of each nutrient that can be taken from the meal. The CPU 27 overwrites the intake amount table TA3 with the added intake amount, and recalculates the excess and deficiency amount and the deficiency degree for each nutrient.

  CPU27 accesses the supplement containing nutrient master MA3 memorize | stored in the auxiliary memory part 24, and selects the supplement which contains the nutrient which a subject lacks most. That is, the CPU 27 extracts a supplement having a minimum difference between each nutrient deficiency and the nutrient content from the daily standard intake × 3 of the supplement-containing nutrient master MA3 as a recommended supplement.

  In addition, after extracting one recommended supplement, the CPU 27 recalculates the intake of each nutrient that can be consumed by adding the recommended supplement when it is determined that the shortage of each nutrient is not zero. The CPU 27 adds the recalculated intake amount to the intake amount of each nutrient that can be taken from the meal. The CPU 27 overwrites the intake amount table TA3 with the added intake amount, and recalculates the excess and deficiency amount and the deficiency degree for each nutrient. The CPU 27 further extracts, from the supplement-containing nutrient master MA3, a supplement having the smallest difference between the nutrient deficiency and the nutrient content as a recommended supplement. The CPU 27 repeats this extraction process until the amount of each nutrient deficiency becomes zero.

  The CPU 27 reads out one or more recommended supplements to the supplement information screen. The CPU 27 transmits the supplement information screen updated in this way to the communication terminal device 1.

  The communication terminal device 1 outputs the supplement information screen received from the information processing device 2 to the screen W. As a result, the subject can confirm whether to continue the dietary supplement currently ingested or to switch to a more suitable dietary supplement.

  In addition, when a check is input from the recommended supplement to the supplement desired to be purchased via the supplement information screen, the communication terminal apparatus 1 generates a sales instruction for the checked supplement and transmits it to the information processing apparatus 2. The CPU 27 of the information processing apparatus 2 receives the sales instruction and temporarily stores it in the RAM 23.

  Furthermore, the communication terminal apparatus 1 generates a movement instruction and transmits it to the information processing apparatus 2 when the movement button to the purchase screen is pressed via the supplement information screen.

  The CPU 27 of the information processing device 2 relays the purchase support system and the communication terminal device 1 that are externally in accordance with the movement instruction. As a result, the target person can purchase a desired supplement via the purchase support system.

  As described above, the information processing apparatus 2 executes the health management support process based on the above-described data, table, and database. Therefore, the procedure of the health management support process executed by the information processing apparatus 2 will be described below. 17 and 18 are flowcharts showing the procedure of the health management support process executed by the information processing apparatus 2.

  When receiving the physical feature from the communication terminal device 1, the CPU 27 of the information processing device 2 extracts the necessary intake of each nutrient corresponding to the physical feature from the necessary intake master MA1 (S101), and extracts each extracted nutrient. Is stored in the RAM 23 temporarily.

  CPU27 determines whether the meal history was received from the communication terminal device 1 (S102), and when it is determined that the meal history was received from the communication terminal device 1 (YES in S102), the meal content of the received meal history Extract the nutrients and nutrient content contained in the meal-containing nutrient master MA2.

  The CPU 27 determines the intake of each nutrient ingested by the meal by adding the actual intake of the meal to the extracted nutrient and the content of the nutrient (S103). The CPU 27 temporarily stores the determined intake of each nutrient in the RAM 23, and proceeds to step S104.

  On the other hand, when it determines with CPU27 not having received the meal log | history from the communication terminal device 1 (it is NO at S102), step S103 is skipped and it progresses to step S104.

  CPU27 determines the intake of each nutrient (refer to S103), or determines that the meal history is not received from the communication terminal device 1 (refer to NO in S102), the supplement intake history from the communication terminal device 1 Is determined (S104).

  When it is determined that the supplement intake history has been received from the communication terminal device 1 (YES in S104), the CPU 27 extracts the nutrients and nutrient contents contained in the supplement of the received supplement intake history from the supplement-containing nutrient master MA3.

  The CPU 27 determines the intake of each nutrient ingested by the supplement by adding the actual intake of the supplement to the extracted nutrient and the content of the nutrient (S105), and the intake of each determined nutrient is ingested by the meal The added amount of each nutrient is temporarily stored in the RAM 23, and the process proceeds to step S106.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the supplement intake history has not been received from the communication terminal device 1 (NO in S104), the CPU 27 skips step S105 and proceeds to step S106.

  When CPU27 determines the intake of each nutrient (refer to S105) or determines that the supplement intake history is not received from communication terminal device 1 (refer to NO in S104), subjective symptoms from communication terminal device 1 It is determined whether or not the region and its strength have been received (S106).

  When it is determined that the site of the subjective symptom and the intensity thereof have been received from the communication terminal device 1 (YES in S106), the CPU 27 extracts the received site of the subjective symptom and the weight corresponding to the intensity from the subjective symptom master MA4. (S107).

  The CPU 27 calculates a correction required intake by weighting the necessary intake of each nutrient stored in the RAM 23 (S108), and temporarily stores the calculated correction required intake in the RAM 23. The CPU 27 proceeds to step S109.

  On the other hand, if the CPU 27 determines that the subjective symptom site and its intensity have not been received from the communication terminal device 1 (NO in S106), it skips step S107 and step S108, and proceeds to step S109.

  If the CPU 27 calculates the corrected necessary intake (see S108) or determines that the subjective symptom site and the site have not been received from the communication terminal device 1 (see NO in S106), for each nutrient, The intake amount stored in the RAM 23 is subtracted by the necessary intake amount (intake amount-necessary intake amount) to calculate the excess / deficiency amount (S109), and temporarily stored in the RAM 23.

  The CPU 27 calculates the degree of deficiency by dividing the calculated excess / deficiency amount by the necessary intake amount stored in the RAM 23 (excess / deficiency amount / necessary intake amount) (S110), and temporarily stores it in the RAM 23.

  The CPU 27 generates an intake status table TA3 including the required intake, weight, corrected required intake, intake, excess / deficiency and deficiency stored in the RAM 23 and stores it in the auxiliary storage unit 24.

  The CPU 27 extracts, for each nutrient, nutrients and parts that satisfy the relationship of calculated deficiency degree ≧ threshold value from the body part master MA5 (S111). For each nutrient and part, the CPU 27 determines whether the degree of deficiency is greater than or equal to the first threshold value, greater than or equal to the second threshold value, or greater than or equal to the third threshold value. The display color is determined so that orange is output when the degree of deficiency ≧ second threshold level, red is output when the degree of deficiency ≧ third threshold level, and green is output when the degree of deficiency <first threshold (S112).

  The CPU 27 generates an intake situation screen. Specifically, the CPU 27 reads the data of the intake status table TA3 stored in the auxiliary storage unit 24 as an intake status list on the intake status screen, and displays the excess / deficiency amount in the intake status list determined in step S112. Color code by color. Moreover, CPU27 reads the body image received from the outside on an intake condition screen, and superimposes each site | part extracted by step S111 on a body image. In addition, the CPU 27 color-codes the overlapping portion with the display color determined in step S112. CPU27 transmits the produced | generated intake condition screen to the communication terminal device 1 (S113).

  The CPU 27 generates a supplement information screen. Specifically, for each body part, the CPU 27 reads each nutrient extracted in step S112 on the supplement information screen, and stores the degree of deficiency and deficiency in the intake status table T3 stored in the auxiliary storage unit 24 for each nutrient. Corresponding amounts are read on the supplement information screen and arranged in the order of the shortage. In addition, the CPU 27 reads the manufacturer name and product name in the supplement intake history master TA2 stored in the auxiliary storage unit 24 and the input fields for continuation and cancellation in association with each other and reads them on the supplement information screen. CPU27 transmits the produced | generated supplement information screen to the communication terminal device 1 (S114).

  The communication terminal device 1 transmits a supplement continuation instruction received via the supplement information screen to the information processing device 2. When receiving the continuation instruction from the communication terminal device 1, the CPU 27 of the information processing device 2 executes a recommended supplement simulation (S115). CPU27 transmits the recommended supplement used as a result of simulation to the communication terminal device 1 (S116), and complete | finishes a health-care support process. The recommended supplement simulation procedure will be described later.

  The communication terminal device 1 outputs the recommended supplement received from the information processing device 2 to the supplement information screen. The subject can check for supplements suitable for improving their nutrient intake.

  Next, a recommended supplement simulation procedure executed by the information processing apparatus 2 will be described. FIG. 19 is a flowchart showing a procedure of recommended supplement simulation processing executed by the information processing apparatus 2.

  The subject inputs a check for a supplement that he / she wishes to continue from the list of supplements currently used. The communication terminal device 1 generates a continuation instruction for the checked supplement and transmits it to the information processing device 2.

  The CPU 27 of the information processing device 2 determines whether or not a continuation instruction has been received from the communication terminal device 1 (S201). When it is determined that a continuation instruction has been received from the communication terminal device 1 (YES in S201), only the supplement to be continued The amount of each nutrient ingested in (2) is recalculated (S202). The CPU 27 adds the recalculated intake amount to the intake amount of each nutrient taken by the meal (S203).

  The CPU 27 recalculates the excess and deficiency amount and the deficiency degree for each nutrient (S204), and accesses the supplement-containing nutrient master MA3 stored in the auxiliary storage unit 24. The CPU 27 extracts the supplement containing the largest amount of nutrients that the subject lacks from the supplement-containing nutrient master MA3 (S205), and reads the extracted supplement as a recommended supplement on the supplement information screen. The CPU 27 transmits the supplement information screen updated in this way to the communication terminal device 1.

  In the above-described embodiment, an example has been described in which supplements extracted in the order of containing a large amount of nutrients that the subject lacks are read as supplements on the supplement information screen. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and supplements whose manufacturer name is their company may be preferentially extracted and read out on the supplement information screen.
