Study Objective
To provide an overview of the use of machine learning (ML) in precision nutrition (PN), identifying the domains of application, the features used in models, the algorithms employed, and the evaluation metrics for these models.

Short Abstract
This systematic literature review investigates the application of machine learning in precision nutrition, focusing on the use of personal data for delivering individualized nutrition advice. It synthesizes 60 primary studies from 4930 retrieved papers, analyzing ML tasks, algorithms, and features used for various PN-related problems. The review highlights the potential of ML in improving the effectiveness of personalized nutrition.
