Nowadays, the demand for more personalized healthy food recipes is increasing over time, but traditional personalized recipe recommendation systems often tend to overlook the differences that exist in different users’ health conditions. This paper aims to address the issue by proposing an innovative personalized health recipe recommendation framework. This framework is based on different health needs, aiming to address users with different health conditions. More explicitly, the hybrid recommendation algorithm based on facial health recognition is designed to recommend the most suitable recipes for the user by taking into account the user’s health status and preferences. In addition, the fitness factor will adjust the recommendation results to best meet the user’s taste preferences and health goals. Experimental results and user research results show that the recommendation results of this framework are more accurate compared to existing systems, and therefore, users are more satisfied.
