HealthTracker (AI Nutrition Helper)

A small Streamlit app that gives calories and protein for foods. It prefers the OpenAI API when OPENAI_API_KEY is set, otherwise it falls back to a local food_db for basic values.

Quick start (Windows)

1. Create and activate a virtual environment:
   • python -m venv .venv
   • .venv\Scripts\activate
2. Install dependencies:
   • pip install -r requirements.txt
3. Copy .env.example to .env and add your OpenAI API key if you want AI responses:
   • COPY .env.example .env
   • edit .env and set OPENAI_API_KEY
4. Run the app:
   • streamlit run app.py --server.port 8501
5. Open your browser at http://127.0.0.1:8501

Notes

• If you don't provide OPENAI_API_KEY, the app will use a small local food_db for basic nutrition info.
• The app stores a simple food_history.txt file in the project folder when you query foods.
