Introduction

We’ve all been there – diligently counting calories, and meticulously following fad diets, only to see the results plateau or, even worse, backfire. For decades, we have been bombarded with generic dietary advice: “Eat five servings of fruits and vegetables daily!” While these guidelines have good intentions, they often fall flat.

The truth is, that our bodies are as individual as our fingerprints. What works wonders for your best friend might leave you feeling sluggish.

Tired of feeling like a science experiment every time you try a new diet? That is where artificial intelligence (AI) comes in, ready to change our eating habits and reveal the mysteries of tailored nutrition.

Thanks to AI, your phone can now track more than just your steps. It can also analyse every bite you take and create a personalised meal plan as unique as your taste buds. No more getting lost in a maze of contradicting food trends or drowning in a sea of generic advice.

AI can create a personalised meal plan that satisfies your palate and fuels your body by analysing your metabolism, lifestyle, and even the photos you take of your food.

As per a study by Emergen Research, the market of AI and Big Data in the Food industry is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 44% between 2019 to 2032 (Emergen Research, 2023).

Enter the exciting realm of AI-powered nutrition, where algorithms become your personal sous chefs, whipping up customised menus that tantalise your taste buds and fuel your body’s unique needs.

Imagine this: you whip up a delicious stir-fry, snap a picture with your phone, and bam! An app powered by computer vision analyses the image, recognising the ingredients and estimating the calorie count. It even breaks down the macronutrients (carbs, protein, fat) to help you understand your meal’s nutritional profile.

This magic trick is powered by AI’s computer vision capabilities.

These apps work by analysing photos of your meals. Just snap a picture of your lunch salad, and the app can identify and quantify the ingredients using its deep learning magic. This translates to automatic calorie counting, a breakdown of macronutrients like protein, carbs, and fat, and even micronutrient estimates. No more wrestling with portion sizes or googling mysterious menu items!

But AI doesn’t stop at recognising pixels. Natural Language Processing (NLP) steps in to understand the context you provide. Your picture captured a delicious burger, but you mentioned holding the mayo in your description. The NLP engine would pick this up and adjust the calorie and fat content accordingly. This way, the app personalised your dietary assessment based on not just the image but also the details you provide.

A study published in the Journal of the National Library of Medicine found that a computer vision app achieved up to 93% accuracy in estimating calorie intake (Amugongo LM, 2022).

This powerful combination of computer vision and NLP makes tracking your diet effortless and insightful, helping you make informed choices about your nutrition.

II. Nutritional Needs Prediction with Generative AI and Biomechanics

Your body deserves a personalised nutrition plan, not generic advice. The latest Generative AI models can decode your nutritional blueprint to predict your body’s needs.

These AI models analyse a wealth of user data: your age, weight, activity levels, and even your genetic makeup. By sifting through this information, they can predict your body’s unique nutritional requirements.

Think of it like having a personal dietician on call, 24/7. The AI model understands that a marathon runner needs a different fuel source than someone with a desk job. Similarly, it can factor in your genes, influencing how efficiently your body absorbs certain nutrients.

But the story doesn’t end there. Biomechanics enters the game and takes it to an advanced level. Wearable devices that track your activity data provide further insights into how you utilise nutrients. By understanding your energy expenditure, the AI model can tailor your dietary recommendations to optimise your performance, whether crushing a workout or conquering a busy workday.

This synergy between AI, your inherent digestive capability, and biomechanics brings a new era of personalised nutrition, ensuring your body gets what it needs to thrive.

III. Personalized Meal Planning with AR/VR and NLP

Step into a world where you can “eat” your dinner before you even cook it. This futuristic take on meal planning utilises the power of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR). AR apps project 3D holographic models of your planned meals right on your kitchen counter. These virtual creations, built upon your personalised nutritional needs, come to life with vibrant colours and textures. Craving a protein-packed salad but want to see it assembled before chopping veggies? AR makes it possible!

Personalisation goes beyond just visuals. NLP plays a key role in crafting your perfect meal plan. By analysing your preferences and dietary restrictions, the AI suggests recipes that cater to your taste buds and health goals. Despise mushrooms? No problem! The NLP engine ensures your virtual meals are free of your culinary dislikes. Vegan or gluten-free? The AI tailors suggestions to your specific dietary needs.

This isn’t just about convenience; it’s about empowering you to make informed choices. By virtually “experiencing” your meals beforehand, you can ensure portion sizes align with your goals and adjust ingredients based on your preferences. So, let go of the meal-planning guesswork and embrace the future of personalised dining, where AR and NLP create a virtual feast for your eyes before it becomes a delicious reality on your plate.

AI for Smart Supplement Recommendations

We’ve explored how AI can analyse your dietary habits and predict your nutritional needs. But what if we could go a step further? This section takes us deeper into the exciting world of AI-powered risk assessment and supplement optimisation.

The market for supplements and personalised nutrition was estimated to be worth US $14.6 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 11.48% to reach US $37.3 billion by 2032 (Fact View, 2024).

We’ll see how machine learning algorithms analyse your unique biological data, from bloodwork to metabolism, to identify potential health risks before they become problematic.
