Immune Boosting Functional Foods for Strengthening Host Defense Mechanism to Combat in Opposition to Covid-19 and Unani Guidelines of Ayush for Its Prevention
Abstract: The Immune systems protect the host in opposition to infectious and poisonous diseases and guard from contagious agents present in the environment, such as viruses, fungi, bacteria, and parasites. Blood performs an essential position in enhancing immunity because of the arrival of white blood cells or tissues that combat in opposition to infectious diseases. Sometimes they are not able to understand those organisms. Due to this reason, we want to …

Deep Plate: A Deep Learning Approach to Recipe Generation from Food Images
Abstract: In the deep learning era, image understanding is advancing in sophistication, encompassing both semantic interpretation and the generation of meaningful image descriptions. To achieve this, deep neural networks must undergo specific cross-model training; these networks must be both simple enough to handle a wide range of inputs and complex enough to encode the fine contextual information associated with the image. An appropriate example of the previously described picture comprehension problem …

Nutrition Induced Gut Microbiota Modulation in Food Animals: Implications for Viral Susceptibility, Shedding and Transmission Dynamics for Sustainable Development
Abstract: The gut microbiota has emerged as a central mediator linking host nutrition, immune competence, and vulnerability to viral pathogens in food animals. Diet is a primary driver of microbial community structure and function, influencing metabolite production, intestinal barrier integrity, and systemic antiviral immunity. Accumulating evidence indicates that nutrition induced modulation of the gut microbiota can substantially alter viral susceptibility, replication, and shedding patterns, with downstream effects on transmission dynamics within …

Role-Based Online Food Ordering and Delivery System Using Django and Restful Architecture
Abstract: Traditional food ordering processes in restaurants rely heavily on manual interactions, including in- person ordering, phone-based bookings, and unstructured coordination between customers, restaurants, and delivery personnel. These approaches lead to inefficiencies such as delayed order processing, incorrect order handling, lack of real-time tracking, and poor coordination among stakeholders. Although modern applications exist, many academic implementations lack modular architecture, role-based access control, and scalable backend design. This paper presents the design …
