I completed this project largely due to the fact that many individuals eat unhealthy foods without a second thought , or even worse, often do not realize that they are consuming unhealthy foods. I also wanted to see if artificial intelligence could identify foods as quickly as a photograph to determine whether they are healthy or unhealthy. With that in mind, my goal was to create a relatively simple tool that would prompt users to eat foods that are healthier, which could in turn help with obesity, heart disease, and other negative side effects of unhealthy eating habits.

After evaluating my project, I found that the ai models have correctly identified healthy and unhealthy food most of the time. The more images I trained with, the better the model performed in classifying a diverse variety of food. It was exciting to see that the model was able to learn better with more training data. My designs in the app uses visual patterns to predict whether a food was healthy or not, this makes it easy for the user to quickly compare food healthiness.
