Diet management has long been an important practice in healthcare, enabling individuals to get an insight into their nutrient intake, prevent diseases, and stay healthy. Traditional methods based on self-reporting, food diaries, and periodic assessments have been used for a long time to control dietary habits. These methods have shown limitations in accuracy, compliance, and real-time analysis. The rapid advancement of digital technologies has revolutionized healthcare, including the diet control landscape, allowing for innovative solutions to control dietary patterns and generate accurate and personalized recommendations. This study examines the potential of digital technologies in diet management and their effectiveness in anti-aging healthcare. After underlining the importance of nutrition in the aging process, we explored the applications of mobile apps, web-based platforms, wearables devices, sensors, the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, blockchain, and other technologies in managing dietary patterns and improving health outcomes. The research further examines the effects of digital dietary control on anti-aging healthcare, including improved nutritional monitoring, personalized recommendations, and behavioral and sustainable changes in habits, leading to an expansion of longevity and health span. The challenges and limitations of digital diet monitoring are discussed, and some future directions are provided. Although many digital tools are used in diet control, their accuracy, effectiveness, and impact on health outcomes are not discussed much. This review consolidates the existing literature on digital diet management using emerging digital technologies to analyze their practical implications, guiding researchers, healthcare professionals, and policy makers toward personalized dietary management and healthy aging.
饮食管理长期以来一直是医疗保健中的一项重要实践，使个人能够深入了解自己的营养摄入情况，预防疾病并保持健康。基于自我报告、食物日记和定期评估的传统方法长期以来一直被用于控制饮食习惯。这些方法在准确性、依从性和实时分析方面存在局限性。数字技术的迅速发展给医疗保健带来了变革，包括饮食控制领域，使得能够采用创新解决方案来控制饮食模式并生成准确且个性化的建议。本研究探讨了数字技术在饮食管理中的潜力及其在抗衰老医疗保健中的有效性。在强调营养在衰老过程中的重要性之后，我们探索了移动应用程序、基于网络的平台、可穿戴设备、传感器、物联网、人工智能、区块链及其他技术在管理饮食模式和改善健康结果方面的应用。该研究进一步考察了数字饮食控制对抗衰老医疗保健的影响，包括改善营养监测、个性化建议以及习惯上的行为和可持续性改变，从而延长寿命和健康跨度。讨论了数字饮食监测的挑战和局限性，并提供了一些未来的方向。尽管许多数字工具被用于饮食控制，但它们的准确性、有效性以及对健康结果的影响却鲜有讨论。本综述整合了关于使用新兴数字技术进行数字饮食管理的现有文献，以分析其实际意义，为研究人员、医疗保健专业人员和政策制定者提供个性化饮食管理和健康老龄化方面的指导。
