MetaPlate: Counterfactual-Guided RAG-LLM Tool for Personalized Food Recommendation and Hyperglycemia Prevention

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2606. 10120v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Postprandial hyperglycemia is a key risk factor for metabolic disorders; however, existing dietary guidance is often static, impractical, and insufficiently personalized, providing recommendations that are difficult to follow or not impactful.

Investigating the Ability of Large Language Models to Analyze Recipes for Diabetes

The paper investigates how well large language models (LLMs) can assess whether recipes are suitable for people with diabetes. It introduces a benchmark of 7,607 recipes, split evenly between suitable and unsuitable, and tests three prompting strategies that vary in how much diabetes dietary guidance they provide. Results show that LLMs tend to be cautious in labeling recipes as suitable, and those that can reason with dietary guidelines—particularly Mistral‑7B and Llama‑70B—perform best.

Evaluating Time-Series Foundation Models and Multimodal Dietary Context for CGM Forecasting

The study evaluates time‑series foundation models for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) forecasting across eight public datasets covering Type 1, Type 2, and non‑diabetes populations. Zero‑shot foundation models did not consistently beat strong task‑specific baselines, but lightweight fine‑tuning of models like Chronos‑Bolt improved root‑mean‑square error by up to 18% in both in‑distribution and out‑of‑distribution settings. Incorporating multimodal dietary context via CGMacros and a residual‑based fusion framework further reduced overall RMSE by ~3% and postprandial RMSE by ~15%, indicating that dietary signals add clinically meaningful value beyond CGM alone.

It introduces a benchmark of 7,607 recipes, split evenly between suitable and unsuitable, and tests three prompting strategies that embed varying levels of diabetes dietary guidelines. Results show that LLMs tend to be cautious in labeling recipes as suitable, and those that can reason with the guidelines—particularly Mistral‑7B and Llama‑70B—perform best.
