Diet problem and the method linear programming

Abstract

Nutrition is very important to people, and they need enough nutrition to support their body and life. The diet problem's purpose is to find a set of foods that will meet a set of daily nutritional requirements for the least amount of money. The issue is presented as a linear program, with the goal of minimizing costs and the restrictions of meeting the required nutritional needs. Dietary restrictions usually limit the number of calories consumed as well as the number of vitamins, minerals, fats, salt, and cholesterol consumed. While the mathematical formula is straightforward, the answer may not be. The nutritional requirements may be reached regardless of flavor or diversity, so think about the outcome before diving into a meal from a "ideal" menu! In this paper, a detailed summary on linear programming and associated diet problem are presented.
