The Big Problem
To create an application that helps users with specific medical conditions and dietary preferences learn what foods have a positive or negative effect on their health. After the user has entered their conditions and dietary preferences, the app should recommend a range of foods and supplements that are beneficial, along with things to be avoided. In addition, the app should surface a collection of recipes that can be prepared from the user’s food recommendations. A core requirement is to create a stunning UI/UX.

The Solution
We built a comprehensive database of medical conditions, foods, supplements, and recipes, using data sourced from a spectrum of respected healthcare professionals including Medical Doctors, Dentists, and Practitioners of Chinese medicine, Dietitians, Naturopaths, Nutritionists, Herbalists, Dieticians and Practitioners of Ayurveda. These advisors assigned a score to foods and supplements for each medical condition in the database, which is fed into a matrix that powers a recommendation algorithm. This algorithm determines which foods are recommended and avoided, and the recipes that are surfaced to specific users.
