Can AI Help Make Your Meals Healthier and Cheaper?
A new AI system can suggest just a few targeted ingredient swaps that make meals healthier and cheaper without dramatically changing what people already eat.
Researchers at the University of California, Davis, have developed an artificial intelligence system that can make meals healthier and more affordable by recommending as few as one to three ingredient substitutions, according to a study published in the open-access journal PLOS Digital Health.
Although nutrition guidelines for reducing the risk of diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease are well established, many people struggle to apply that advice to the meals they eat every day. Existing dietary tools often require major changes, which can be difficult to maintain or confusing to put into practice.
