ShanLiangRen: A Nutrition Agent for Personalized Daily Meal Planning

Miao Xie, Xiao Zhang, Yuan Wang, Ruixin Zhu, Chunli Lv

Dietary nutrition planning plays an important role in chronic disease management and maintaining a healthy body. In applications, it must simultaneously satisfy personalized constraints and reasonable multidimensional nutritional goals. These two aspects often conflict, and user constraints evolve with feedback, resulting in a substantial gap between generic guidelines and executable plans. To bridge this gap, we first propose the personalized fully quantified multiobjective dietary planning problem (MDP). To tackle MDP, we develop a nutrition agent, ShanLiangRen. The system first transforms dietary specifications, nutrient data, user attributes and natural language requirements into an individualized constrained planning instance. It then employs an exact retrieval-augmented generation method to shrink the feasible candidate set from a large scale ingredient and recipe space. Finally, it adopts a refinement guided by Pareto principles, where an LLM iteratively revises candidate plans under deterministic nutrition computation and feedback from constraint verification. The system outputs fully quantified meal plans with explicit ingredients and portion sizes, together with reports…
