Current healthcare services increase health awareness by providing information, but don´t utilize the information. Moreover, medical service has problem of lacking the concept of prevention. For those problems, this research proposes a lifestyle improvement support system which shows user how to use advice. At the time of shopping and cooking, the system provides advice that match user´s context. By using the context, the system provides proper advice. The previous research found that user´s lifestyle is deeply related to the content of advice. In order to solve those problems, this research includes budget, work load, time in advice as context.
