`
`1.
`
`(Currently Amended) A method of providing information in a health management
`
`system that
`
`includes a first server which securely manages storages that store biological
`
`information of a user in association with identification information identifying the user and that
`
`communicates with a second server that stores menu information indicating one or more dishes
`
`corresponding to a restaurant, the method comprising:
`
`outputting a request of acquisition of the menu information to the second server based on
`
`a request for a personalized menu for the user acquired received from an information terminal of
`
`the user via a network;
`
`receiving aequitins the identification information stored in the information terminal from
`
`the information terminal via a network with permission information by the user to request for the
`
`biological information of the user;
`
`acquiring the menu information from the second server;
`
`in advance of receiving the identification information, securely managing the storages
`
`that sequentially store the biological
`
`information in time series in association with the
`
`corresponding measured timing data and the identification information,
`
`in a distributed and
