Fitness Frank and Engineering Edgar need a way to track what they consume to be either healthy or sustainable whilst suggesting programs/methods, because it takes too much time tracking it on their fitness/diet app, there has been prospective developing research in the area, and there aren’t any holistic processes to increase external and internal sustainability of an individual in consumption.
