Abstract

This proposal outlines the development of an AI-based Diet Recommendation and Planner leveraging machine learning techniques. The project aims to provide personalized diet plans based on individual health profiles, preferences, and goals. By utilizing machine learning algorithms, the system will offer accurate dietary recommendations and meal plans tailored to users’ nutritional needs. The integration with APIs using Flask will ensure seamless interaction between the planner and various nutritional databases and user interfaces.

Introduction

Maintaining a healthy diet is essential for overall well-being and disease prevention. However, many individuals struggle with identifying the right dietary choices that align with their health goals and preferences. An AI-based Diet Recommendation and Planner can address this challenge by providing personalized dietary advice and meal plans. This project proposes the development of such a system using machine learning techniques to analyze user data and generate customized diet recommendations.

Problem Statement

Many people face difficulties in creating and adhering to a healthy diet plan that suits their unique health conditions, lifestyle, and preferences. The lack of personalized dietary advice often leads to poor nutrition and associated health issues. There is a need for an intelligent system that can provide customized diet recommendations and meal plans based on individual health profiles.

Aim

The aim of this project is to develop an AI-based Diet Recommendation and Planner using machine learning algorithms to provide personalized dietary advice and meal plans tailored to individual health profiles, preferences, and goals.
