Try as we might to eat a healthy, balanced diet, it can be difficult to ensure that we’re getting our recommended quantities of nutrients. To this end, Julie Baron wants someone to create a weekly nutrition requirements calculator to help us mantain the health and welfare of ourselves and our families. The successful developer will win a total of $85.
Users should be able to enter recipes and other available foodstuffs to be consumed over the course of the week. The calculator should then determine any nutrients that are lacking and suggest supplemental items that will fulfill nutritional requirements. The program must be able to process various kinds of input, including web links, manual input, and manufacturer details.
The winning solution will improve upon existing calculators by addressing specific nutrients (such as copper, folate, and DHA) that are increasingly recognized for their importance in our daily diets.
