A mathematical model of healthy diet menu plan for MARA Junior Science College boarding schools

Adolescents need more attention on eating habits as they go through a critical path period of physical, physiological and psychological changes from children to adult. Therefore, planning a proper healthy diet menu is important to adolescents to have the sufficient nutrients for proper growth. Howev...
