Achieve your nutrition goals with the help of AI

You might be familiar with the basics of eating right, but sometimes we could all use a reminder of what works best for our bodies. While consulting a doctor or healthcare professional is the most accurate way to keep track of your health, you can also implement modern-day solutions in developing a nutritional plan and adhering to it. Learn how AI for nutrition can play a role in helping you achieve the physical goals you’ve set for yourself.

Plan your lifestyle and nutrition goals with AI

It might seem like there’s an overwhelming amount of information available that offers advice on how you should eat. This might include highly specific diets designed to burn fat for energy instead of carbohydrates (such as the keto diet), protein-heavy plans to help you build muscle, or heart-healthy plans that emphasize fresh fish, poultry, and healthy fats (such as the Mediterranean diet).

It’s important to identify what your own goals are, such as cutting out sugar or carbs, or replacing necessary protein and iron that might be missing from a vegetarian diet. Familiarize yourself with these plans by asking an AI assistant what they entail, what’s allowed, and what foods you should minimize or try to avoid.

For example, you can ask some of the following nutrition-related questions:

What should I eat to adhere to a paleo diet?
Which processed foods contain the most sodium?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of a vegan diet?
How much protein do I need to eat every day for strength training?
What healthy options do I have when traveling to the Pacific Northwest?

If you have specific goals related to fitness, then your diet is vital to helping you meet them—which is how AI can help by answering your questions and guiding you while you’re grocery shopping.

Track your food intake with AI

AI-powered programs can track your dietary intake and make recommendations to ensure that you’re getting a balanced set of nutrients per day. The algorithms that generative AI use can analyze vast amounts of data related to the nutrition facts of popular foods, and it’s able to distinguish what is beneficial and what might be holding you back from meeting your goals (such as foods high in saturated fats).

For example, when you enter your meals to AI as well as their estimated serving sizes, AI can check to see what nutrients might be missing. This is verified against daily recommended intakes for your age, weight, and other vital statistics, such as personal data recorded by your fitness tracker.

AI can generate personalized diet recommendations

Based on the inputs you enter into an AI chat window, you’ll get recommended foods that are high in any nutrients you’re missing. If you need more vitamin C, you might get an answer that suggests adding more oranges, broccoli, kale, and cauliflower into your diet. This can lead to a handy dinner plan that can serve your whole family.

Since all of our bodies are different, getting personalized recommendations is key to a healthier lifestyle. Leverage AI tools to ask as many specific questions and fine-tune a dietary plan through following nutrition-related prompts such as these:

Design a meal prep plan that uses the following ingredients: carrots, orzo, firm tofu, tortillas, and garbanzo beans.
What should I eat for three meals a day if I want to eat no more than 2,200 calories?
Create a dietary plan that is high in omega-3s but doesn’t only consist of fish.
What is a vegetarian meal plan for me to gradually lose five pounds in the next three weeks?
What is the daily recommended serving of protein for a 180lb male who is weightlifting three times per day?

Setting nutrition goals is just one of the ways that everyday AI can help transform certain aspects of your life to match your goals. See how AI can also help you with everyday tasks, such as jumpstarting your writing process or creating a monthly budget.
