POSTPRANDIAL BLOOD GLUCOSE ESTIMATING APPARATUS, POSTPRANDIAL BLOOD GLUCOSE ESTIMATING METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT
First Claim
1. A postprandial blood glucose estimating apparatus for estimating a value related to postprandial blood glucose of a subject, comprising:
- an input receiving part for receiving an input of information relating to an amount of energy in a food belonging to carbohydrate-containing food group which contains carbohydrates, and information relating to an amount of energy in a food belonging to a first food group that is different from the carbohydrate-containing food group;
an estimating part for estimating a value related to a postprandial glucose level when the subject consumes the food belonging to the carbohydrate-containing food group and the food belonging to the first food group, based on the information relating to the amount of energy in the food belonging to the carbohydrate-containing food group and the information relating to the amount of energy in the food belonging to the first food group received by the input receiving part; and
an outputting part for outputting the value related to the postprandial glucose level estimated by the estimating part.
