Abstract

Extending the results of a previous paper on the relationship between fish consumption and coronary heart disease, an optimal control approach is proposed in the present paper. The Pontryagin's minimum principle is used to characterize the optimal control, to minimize the population of susceptible individuals and also to reduce the mortality rate of coronary heart disease. A numerical simulation is carried out to show the impact of the proposed optimal control. Indeed, the model shows that the prevalence and mortality of coronary heart disease can be significantly reduced in a period of 10 years. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
