Eating healthy is rooted in nutritional science, but our diets may be influenced by our genetic composition, lifestyle, and health goals. A healthy diet provides the necessary macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) to support bodily functions, energy, and overall health. This involves balancing food choices to meet individual needs while minimizing harmful substances like excessive saturated fats, sugar, and salt.

Personalized nutrition is changing how we eat today. Formidably, it's all thanks to the burgeoning technology wave that's easing the job through development of artificial intelligence (AI) and data-driven solutions. AI is making nutrition more accurate, accessible, and efficient than ever before by utilizing machine learning, big data, and biometric tracking. Conclusively, it would not be wrong to say that nutrition is hyper-personalized today. But is the hype around Hyper-Personalized Nutrition reliable enough, when it’s powered by technology i.e., a collective result of data, analytics, AI, and automation.
