WebDietAID is a web-based system that assists individuals with high cholesterol by simulating nutritional counseling. It offers personalized advice on weight monitoring, nutrition, and behavior change to improve health outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Nutritional Science
  • Behavioral Science

Background:

  • High serum cholesterol poses significant health risks.
  • Nutritional counseling is effective but often inaccessible.
