1. A data management unit for supporting health control, the data management unit comprising:
a processor;
a data input unit adapted to input data and/or requests and connected to the processor;
a data storage connected to the processor, the data storage configured to store a group of tags comprising a fasting tag and at least one other event tag;
wherein the processor is adapted to receive new data from the data input unit or a measurement unit, wherein the new data comprises a recent measurement value of a body parameter,
wherein the data management unit further comprises a clock unit connected to the processor, wherein the clock unit assigns a time stamp to the new data,
wherein the processor is further adapted to select a tag from the group of tags and assign the tag to the new data, the tag referring to an event, wherein the processor is further adapted to assign the tag automatically or to automatically select the tag from the group of tags for assignment, wherein the processor is further adapted to assign the fasting tag to the new data only when the time stamp of the new data received is between a first time and a second time of a predefined fasting window, wherein the predefined fasting window is stored in the data storage,
wherein the data management unit is adapted to:
determine that the time stamp of the new data falls between the first time and the second time of the predefined fasting window;
determine that another measurement value is stored in the data storage along with a tag and a time stamp assigned to the other measurement value, wherein the time stamp assigned to the other measurement value and the time stamp assigned to the new data indicate the same day, wherein the tag assigned to the other measurement value stored in the data storage is the fasting tag;
in response to determining that the time stamp of the new data falls between the first time and the second time of the predefined fasting window and determining that the other measurement value is stored in the data storage, provide a request for a user to select which of the new data and the other measurement value shall be associated with the fasting tag; and
in response to receiving, from the user, a selection between the new data and the other measurement value, cause only one of the new data or the other measurement value corresponding to the selection to be assigned to the fasting tag.
