Abstract:

The study generally promotes health awareness for the obese person through the diet management system simulated in an android phone. It opened the possibility of combining available open-source applications of android phones in maximizing its purpose. The application of the genetic algorithm to this study had contributed significantly to achieve a favorable result. The researchers find that the algorithm applicable for this study since it returned a satisfactory result particularly in giving the expected amount of food for each BMI and health condition.
