AI-Powered Smart Nutrition & Health Intelligence Platform
NUTRIGEN is an AI-driven nutrition analysis platform designed to help users understand what they eat, how it impacts their body, and whether it aligns with their health goals.
Using computer vision and machine learning, the system analyzes food images, estimates nutritional values, tracks intake patterns, and generates personalized health insights.
The platform focuses on preventive healthcare, intelligent nutrition tracking, and scalable cloud deployment using AWS infrastructure.
Millions of people consume food daily without accurate knowledge of:
- Calorie intake
- Macronutrient balance
- Portion size accuracy
- Long-term health risks
- Alignment with fitness or medical goals
Manual food logging applications are time-consuming and often inaccurate, particularly for region-specific meals.
NUTRIGEN aims to automate this process using AI.
