Exploring the Uses of Artificial Intelligence and ChatGPT in Therapeutic Diet and Nutrition

Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into healthcare has revolutionized the field of therapeutic diet and nutrition by providing innovative tools for assessment, education, and personalized care. Among these advancements, conversational AI models, such as ChatGPT, have emerged as valuable assets in enhancing patient engagement and streamlining clinical workflows. This paper examines the utilization of AI in general, and ChatGPT in particular, in therapeutic diet and nutrition, including dietary assessment and planning, patient education, and real-time monitoring. The discussion highlights the benefits of AI-driven tools in improving adherence to dietary interventions and supporting evidence-based decision-making for clinicians and dietitians. These advancements are tempered, however, by ethical considerations including bias in recommendations, privacy concerns, and equitable access. Although challenges remain in ensuring accuracy and fostering trust among practitioners and patients, this paper identifies opportunities for future research for both researchers and practitioners. Through the integration of technology and human expertise, AI can accelerate advances in therapeutic nutrition.
