Applying A mathematical Model for Linear Programming using Numerical to find the Optimal Solution for the Keto Diet

Abstract

The keto diet is considered one of the high-fat and low-carbohydrate systems with a moderate protein content, which has been proven to be important in treating some diseases such as epilepsy, as well as contributing to weight loss by burning fat. Therefore, in this this paper and by using the linear programming model, provided a novel mathematical methodology for obtaining the lowest cost that takes into account many objectives, the highest percentage of fat and the lowest amount of carbohydrates for men aged 19-50 years by using some important foods in the keto diet. Besides, the multi-objective system was solved by converting it to a single objective function by suggesting a weight for each function by diet specialists in a similar way to the interactive methods of multi-objective linear programming where the results were obtained through the simplex method to provide a high-fat, low-carbohydrate and the lowest cost.
