FitBot: An Advanced Health-Centric Chatbot

FitBot is an AI-driven chatbot that uses large language models (LLMs) such as GPT-4 by OpenAI. It seamlessly integrates with the Nutrition endpoint from API Ninjas, providing accurate nutritional data and personalized health recommendations.

Features

1. Nutritional Information Retrieval: Fetches accurate nutritional data of any given food item by leveraging the Nutrition endpoint of API Ninjas.
2. Health Calculations: Computes Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE), Ideal Body Weight (IBW), and more.
3. User-Friendly Interaction: Features a chat-like interface that is easy to use and interact with.
4. Consistent Learning and Improvement: As the underlying model (GPT-4) continues to learn and improve, so too does FitBot.
