1. A method of providing blood glucose management information, the method comprising:
- determining, by using at least one processor, a similarity of a blood glucose change pattern of a user by comparing blood glucose information obtained from the user and blood glucose information stored in a database;
extracting at least one piece of blood glucose information from the blood glucose information stored in the database according to the determined similarity; and
providing the blood glucose management information, which corresponds to the extracted blood glucose information, to the user so that the health of the user may be substantially improved,wherein the determining of the similarity comprises;
classifying the blood glucose information obtained from the user into groups according to a time when the blood glucose level of the user is measured which is relevant to a time when a factor influencing blood glucose is generated; and
comparing a first reference estimated from the blood glucose information obtained from the user with a second reference estimated from the blood glucose information stored in the database with respect to each of the classified groups,wherein the first reference comprises a representative value indicating one of the blood glucose change patterns of the user, andthe first reference is estimated from a relationship between the time when the blood glucose level of the user is measured and the blood glucose level.
