Abstract

An exercise suggestion device, an exercise suggestion method and an exercise suggestion program that can suggest an effective exercise are to be provided.

An exercise suggestion device includes: an exercise correction unit which corrects exercise information set on the basis of user information about a user and including exercise duration and exercise intensity of an exercise to be carried out by the user, on the basis of dietary information indicating composition of a meal of the user; and a suggestion unit which suggests at least one of the exercise intensity included in the exercise information that is corrected and an exercise type corresponding to the exercise intensity, and the exercise duration included in the exercise information that is corrected.

Claims

1. An exercise suggestion device comprising:

an exercise correction unit which corrects exercise information set on the basis of user information about a user and including exercise duration and exercise intensity of an exercise to be carried out by the user, on the basis of dietary information indicating composition of a meal of the user; and

a suggestion unit which suggests at least one of the exercise intensity included in the exercise information that is corrected and an exercise type corresponding to the exercise intensity, and the exercise duration included in the exercise information that is corrected.

2. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 1, wherein

the exercise correction unit corrects the exercise information on the basis of an amount of glucide in the meal included in the dietary information.

3. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 1, wherein

the exercise correction unit corrects the exercise information on the basis of a ratio of protein, fat and carbohydrate in the meal included in the dietary information.

4. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 1, comprising

a timing setting unit which sets a start timing of the exercise on the basis of blood sugar level change information indicating the way the blood sugar level of the user included in the user information rises,

wherein the suggestion unit suggests the start timing.

5. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 1, comprising

a post-exercise blood sugar level prediction unit which predicts a post-exercise blood sugar level change that is a change in the blood sugar level of the user in the case where the exercise indicated by the exercise information is carried out,

wherein the suggestion unit suggests the post-exercise blood sugar level change.

6. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 5, comprising

a post-meal blood sugar level prediction unit which predicts a post-meal blood sugar level change that is a change in the blood sugar level of the user in the case where the meal is taken, on the basis of the dietary information,

wherein the suggestion unit suggests the post-meal blood sugar level change and the post-exercise blood sugar level change.

19. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 2, wherein

the exercise correction unit corrects the exercise information on the basis of a ratio of protein, fat and carbohydrate in the meal included in the dietary information.

20. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 19, comprising

a timing setting unit which sets a start timing of the exercise on the basis of blood sugar level change information indicating the way the blood sugar level of the user included in the user information rises,

wherein the suggestion unit suggests the start timing.

21. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 20, comprising

a post-exercise blood sugar level prediction unit which predicts a post-exercise blood sugar level change that is a change in the blood sugar level of the user in the case where the exercise indicated by the exercise information is carried out,

wherein the suggestion unit suggests the post-exercise blood sugar level change.

22. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 2, comprising

a timing setting unit which sets a start timing of the exercise on the basis of blood sugar level change information indicating the way the blood sugar level of the user included in the user information rises,

wherein the suggestion unit suggests the start timing.

23. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 3, comprising

a timing setting unit which sets a start timing of the exercise on the basis of blood sugar level change information indicating the way the blood sugar level of the user included in the user information rises,

wherein the suggestion unit suggests the start timing.

24. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 2, comprising

a post-exercise blood sugar level prediction unit which predicts a post-exercise blood sugar level change that is a change in the blood sugar level of the user in the case where the exercise indicated by the exercise information is carried out,

wherein the suggestion unit suggests the post-exercise blood sugar level change.

25. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 3, comprising

a post-exercise blood sugar level prediction unit which predicts a post-exercise blood sugar level change that is a change in the blood sugar level of the user in the case where the exercise indicated by the exercise information is carried out,

wherein the suggestion unit suggests the post-exercise blood sugar level change.

26. The exercise suggestion device according to claim 4, comprising

a post-exercise blood sugar level prediction unit which predicts a post-exercise blood sugar level change that is a change in the blood sugar level of the user in the case where the exercise indicated by the exercise information is carried out,

the exercise correction unit corrects the exercise information on the basis of an amount of glucide in the meal included in the dietary information.

9. The exercise suggestion system according to claim 7, wherein

the exercise correction unit corrects the exercise information on the basis of a ratio of protein, fat and carbohydrate in the meal included in the dietary information.

10. The exercise suggestion system according to claim 7, comprising

a timing setting unit which sets a start timing at which an exercise corresponding to the exercise information corrected by the exercise correction unit is started, on the basis of the user information,

wherein the suggestion unit suggests the start timing.

11. The exercise suggestion system according to claim 10, wherein

the user information includes blood sugar level change information indicating the way the blood sugar level of the user rises.

12. The exercise suggestion system according to claim 10, wherein

the start timing is information indicating at least one of a time at which the exercise is started and a time period until the exercise is started.

13. An exercise suggestion server comprising:
