In an embodiment, a provider 136 may make available a plurality of refreshment possibilities available for purchase, such as by posting a menu online and/or posted in print at the location of the provider 136. In an embodiment, a provider 136 may prepare and create different refreshment possibilities at different times of the day and/or week. For example, a provider 136 may offer fifteen different refreshment possibilities for breakfast, and ten different refreshment possibilities for lunch. A provider 136 may offered different refreshment possibilities on different days of the week. For example, a provider 136 may offer shrimp scampi as refreshment possibility only on Wednesday nights, and chicken parmesan as a refreshment possibility only on Friday nights. Computing device 104 may communicate with one or more computing devices operated by provider 136 to obtain updated refreshment possibilities. One or more refreshment possibilities may be stored in refreshment database 140. Refreshment database 140 may be implemented as any data structure suitable for use as user database 112 as described above in more detail. In an embodiment, refreshment database 140 may be updated in real time to contain updated refreshment possibilities from various provider 136 utilizing any network methodology as described herein.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 is configured to receive a user input containing an element of user geolocation 124 data. Computing device 104 may receive a user input from a remote device 128 operated by a user, utilizing any network methodology as described herein. Computing device 104 may receive a user input containing an element of user geolocation 124 data describing a user's current geolocation 124. In yet another non-limiting example, computing device 104 may receive a user input containing an element of user geolocation 124 data describing a particular location where a user will be located at a time in the future. For example, a user input containing an element of user geolocation 124 data may specify that a user will be traveling to Denver, Colo. for three days later in the week. Computing device 104 is configured to locate provider 136 located within a specified distance of an element of user geolocation 124 data. Computing device 104 may locate provider 136 within a specified distance such as by consulting refreshment database 140. In an embodiment, a user may enter a preference that may be stored in user database 112, specifying a distance a user is willing to travel to from a user geolocation 124 to a provider 136. For example, a user may enter an input into user database 112 specifying that the user prefers to not travel more than five miles from a specified geolocation 124 to locate provider 136. In an embodiment, a user may provide a specified distance with an element of user geolocation 124 data, as distances a user may be willing to travel may vary based on a particular geolocation 124. For example, a user may prefer to travel up to twenty five miles from user's home in Kansas City, Mo., but a user may prefer to only travel a distance of five city blocks when the user is traveling and located in New York City for work.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 is configured to locate a provider 136 located within a geolocation 124 as a function of a refreshment program. A “refreshment program,” as used in this disclosure, is a description of any meals offered and/or served by a provider 136. A refreshment program may specify specific meals that a provider 136 may offer, such as breakfast, and lunch service. A refreshment program may specify certain times of the day that refreshment possibilities are available, such as snacks that are available for purchase between 4 pm-6 pm, and dinner that is available for purchase between 6:30 pm-10:30 pm. Information pertaining to refreshment programs for various provider 136 may be stored in refreshment database 140. Computing device 104 may consult refreshment database 140 to determine refreshment programs that are available for provider 136 located within a certain geographical area. Computing device 104 receives from a provider 136 a current refreshment program. A “current refreshment program,” as used in this disclosure, is any present refreshment program offered by a provider 136. Computing device 104 may receive a current refreshment program at timed intervals. For example, computing device 104 may receive a current refreshment program from a provider 136 every Friday, containing an updated refreshment program for the following week. In yet another non-limiting example, computing device 104 may receive a current refreshment program only when a change is made to a refreshment program, which may be updated and shared with computing device 104. Computing device 104 may receive a current refreshment program utilizing any network methodology as described herein.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 is configured to determine the compatibility of a plurality of refreshment possibilities utilizing a biological extraction 108 and a nutritional model. A “compatibility,” as used in this disclosure, is any data, including any numerical, character, and/or symbolic data specifying how likely a refreshment possibility will be tolerated by a user's body. In an embodiment, a compatibility 148 may be generated on a numerical score, such as on a range from 0 to 100. In such an instance, a score such as 0 would indicate a refreshment possibility will not be tolerated by a user's body, while a score such as 100 would be well tolerated by a user's body. Computing device 104 determines the compatibility 148 of a plurality of refreshment possibilities by utilizing a user's biological extraction 108, and a plurality of refreshment possibilities as inputs into a nutritional model and outputting a compatibility 148 of each of the plurality of refreshment possibilities. Computing device 104 may use training data 120 to train a nutritional model. In an embodiment, data used to train a nutritional model may come from previous interactions of a user and system 100. For example, user database 112 may store any previously calculated compatible refreshment possibilities. In yet another non-limiting example, computing device 104 may store within user database 112 any previous health information about a user, such as any eating habits, food preferences, dietary restrictions, food allergies, food intolerances, foods a user does not enjoy eating, foods a user prefers eating and the like.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 is configured to retrieve a recent refreshment selection, wherein the recent refreshment selection identifies a consumed refreshment. A “recent refreshment selection,” as used in this disclosure, is any refreshment possibility that a user selected and consumed. In an embodiment, one or more recent refreshment selections may be stored in user database 112. Computing device 104 determines the compatibility 148 of a plurality of refreshment possibilities using a recent refreshment selection. Computing device 104 may utilize a recent refreshment selection as an input to nutritional machine-learning model 116. In yet another non-limiting example, computing device 104 may evaluate one or more ingredients contained within a recent refreshment selection to determine the compatibility 148 of a plurality of refreshment possibilities, to ensure that a user obtains enough nutrients and/or doesn't consume an excess amount of ingredients that may be harmful to a user. An “ingredient,” as used in this disclosure, is any food, substance, and/or component contained within a refreshment possibility. For example, a refreshment possibility such as chicken piccata may contain ingredients that include chicken breast, sea salt, ground pepper, all-purpose flour, unsalted butter, extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice, chicken stock, brined capers, and fresh parsley. Computing device 104 may evaluate ingredients contained within a recent refreshment selection such as chicken piccata to ensure that a user with a biological extraction 108 that shows the user has high cholesterol, does not consume too many meals that contain excess amounts of butter. Computing device 104 may evaluate ingredients contained within chicken piccata, determine the chicken piccata has butter, and determine that refreshment possibilities that contain butter from a plurality of refreshment possibilities will not be ranked as highly compatible as any refreshment possibilities that do not contain butter. In an embodiment, a recent refreshment selection may be examined to determine how recent in time it may be, to determine how much weight it may have on a compatibility. For instance and without limitation, a refreshment selection that was consumed one day ago may have more of an impact on a compatibility as compared to a refreshment selection that was consumed three weeks previously.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 is configured to determine the compatibility 148 of refreshment possibilities for a first provider 136. A “first provider,” as used in this disclosure, is any provider 136 who is selected first. In an embodiment, computing device 104 may determine the compatibility 148 of a plurality of refreshment possibilities offered by a first provider 136. For example, computing device 104 may evaluate a current refreshment program offered by a first provider 136. Computing device 104 may utilize the compatibility 148 of a plurality of refreshment possibilities to determine the compatibility 148 of a plurality of refreshment possibilities for a second provider 136. For example, computing device 104 may determine that a first refreshment possibility offered by a first provider 136 such as buttermilk pancakes with maple syrup and fresh fruit are moderately compatible for a user. In such an instance, computing device 104 may determine that buttermilk pancakes with maple syrup and berries offered by a second provider 136 are also moderately compatible, based on the buttermilk pancakes with maple syrup and fresh fruit being moderately compatible for the first provider 136. In yet another non-limiting example, computing device 104 may determine that a first refreshment possibility that contains avocado toast offered by a first provider 136 is not compatible for a user because the user has a mild food intolerance to avocado. However, computing device 104 may utilize the information to determine that enchiladas served with a side containing one slice of avocado may be moderately tolerant for the user, because the one slice of avocado if consumed will not be enough to trigger a full intolerance reaction.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 determines the compatibility 148 of a plurality of refreshment possibilities utilizing an ingredient list for each of the plurality of refreshment possibilities. An “ingredient list,” as used in this disclosure, is any compilation of ingredients used to prepare a refreshment possibility. An ingredient list may be obtained from a provider 136 and stored within refreshment database 140. Computing device 104 updates ingredient lists on a timed interval from a provider 136. For example, a provider 136 may agree to update an ingredient list once per week to account for ingredients that a provider 136 may or may not be able to obtain during the following week. In yet another non-limiting example, a provider 136 may update an ingredient list once per day, to account for different refreshment possibilities that may be available each day. For example, ingredients that a provider 136 can obtain may vary based on current world events, market demands, consumer appeal, seasonal availability of ingredients, and various other factors.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 is configured to determine an incompatible refreshment possibility. An “incompatible refreshment possibility,” as used in this disclosure, is any refreshment possibility that will not be well tolerated by a user's body. In an embodiment, an incompatible refreshment possibility may meet a specific numerical threshold to be considered incompatible. For instance and without limitation, refreshment possibilities that are evaluated on a scale of 0 to 100 for compatibility 148 as described above in more detail, may consider that all refreshment possibilities scored from 0 to 50 are considered incompatible. Computing device 104 may determine an incompatible refreshment possibility utilizing nutritional machine-learning model. For example, nutritional machine-learning model may determine that a refreshment possibility is incompatibly, because of the output compatibility generated by nutritional machine-learning model. For instance and without limitation, nutritional machine-learning model may determine that a refreshment possibility containing fried chicken has a very low compatibility for a user, and thus computing device 104 may identify the refreshment possibility as an incompatible refreshment possibility. Compatibility and/or incompatibility 148 of refreshment possibilities may flux and vary over time. For example, a refreshment possibility that contains a lot of dairy ingredients such as fresh ice cream may be considered an incompatible refreshment possibility for a user with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), while the refreshment possibility for fresh ice cream may be considered moderately compatible for the user once the user has recovered from RSV. Computing device 104 is configured to propose a modification to a refreshment possibility to improve compatibility 148. A “modification,” as used in this disclosure, is any suggested substitution for one or more ingredients contained within a refreshment possibility. For example, computing device 104 may determine that a taco salad that contains sour cream may not be very compatible for a user because of a high amount of saturated fat contained within sour cream. In such an instance, computing device 104 may determine a modification that replaces sour cream with Greek yogurt may modify the taco salad to improve the compatibility of the taco salad. One or more lists of ingredients that can be substituted and/or replaced for one another may be contained within refreshment database 140. For example, a modification such as substituting ground turkey in lieu of ground beef to reduce cholesterol consumption may be stored within refreshment database 140. In an embodiment, computing device 104 may propose a modification using a machine-learning algorithm, including any of the machine-learning algorithms as described herein. For example, computing device 104 may utilize an ingredient as an input to a machine-learning algorithm and output one or more modifications.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 is configured to retrieve a user specification element. A “user specification element,” as used in this disclosure, is any user response and/or preference of a user regarding refreshment possibilities. A user specification element 152 may be based on a questionnaire completed by a user containing information regarding a user's behaviors, foods and/or ingredients that a user likes to eat, foods and/or ingredients that a user does not like to consume, and the like. A user specification element may be stored within user database 112. Computing device 104 determines the compatibility 148 of a plurality of refreshment possibilities utilizing a user specification element 152. For example, a user specification element 152 that describes a user's distaste for eggs, may be utilized by computing device 104 to determine a refreshment possibility such as an omelet may be ranked as less compatible as compared to a refreshment possibility such as a bowl of oatmeal topped with fresh berries and walnuts.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, computing device 104 is configured to display a compatibility of a plurality of refreshment possibilities. Computing device 104 may display a compatibility 148 of a plurality of refreshment possibilities on graphical user interface 132. In an embodiment, computing device 104 may transmit a compatibility 148 of a plurality of refreshment possibilities to remote device 128 operated by a user. In an embodiment, computing device 104 may display a number indicating a compatibility of a refreshment possibility, a qualitative statement containing an indication of compatibility such as high, medium, or low, a photograph of a refreshment possibility containing an indication of compatibility and the like.
Referring now to FIG. 2, an exemplary embodiment 200 of user database 112 is illustrated. User database 112 may be implemented as any data structure as described above in more detail in reference to FIG. 1. One or more tables contained within user database 112 may include biological extraction table 204; biological extraction table 204 may contain one or more biological extractions pertaining to a user. For instance and without limitation, biological extraction table 204 may contain a blood sample analyzed for intracellular and extracellular nutrient levels of calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc. One or more tables contained within user database 112 may include training data table 208; training data table 208 may contain one or more training sets. For instance and without limitation, training data table 208 may contain a training set generated from one or more user inputs and one or more previous user interactions with system 100 as described above in more detail in reference to FIG. 1.
