Abstract
Because the promotion of the safety system is so important in HIV-positive patients, and the health of the tissues and the ability to fight disease are reduced, nutrition as a principle for improving the health of these people is important and the availability of food is Nutrition and healthy water are very important for these people. The quantity of a nutrient in a food item can never be determined accurately and a certain amount can be attributed to it. This uncertainty about the numbers and figures available in the medical field makes it unrealistic to make decisions about providing a diet based on crisp data. Our goal in this paper is to prepare and regulate an optimal diet in the fuzzy environment. Due to the high-calorie and high-protein diet for these patients, the research problem is a fuzzy linear programming problem with two objective functions that include maximizing calories and daily protein. We have modeled it and then solved it in the right way. Finally, by implementing the diet in the fuzzy environment, we achieved good results, so that the obtained numbers are better and are more realistic considering all possible situations.
