Conclusion

I truly believe this project has the ability to help people. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle can be difficult for many people, particularly for working adults who often find themselves overworked and underpaid. It’s all too easy to make unhealthy decisions (or worse, be forced to) under such conditions.

The idea for this app came about when I learned about the number of Americans working multiple jobs to make ends meet. According to a December 2022 report by the Federal Reserve, roughly 388,000 Americans are currently working more than two full-time jobs. That’s nearly 5% of the entire U.S. workforce! Under such conditions, coming up with a healthy meal to cook at home must be one of the last things on their mind.

Giving people a quick way to plan and prepare healthy meals can allow them to get the nutrition they need in a country where fast food is commonplace and obesity is at all-time highs. With excess weight correlated with a slew of other issues, this one change could fundamentally improve the lives of countless people.
