Unless or until we develop polymers or ceramics that are capable of a certain amount of homeostasis within the human body, cybernetic implants with an eye toward elective electronics is wholly laughable. They can't even implant a pacemaker that won't wear out over time. As to a universally healthy human diet, you are WAY off. Human breeds, aka Ethnicity, are extremely varied and often specialized, especially concerning diet. Evolution favors adaptations to environment, including what plants and animals individuals have access to. You take an American Indian from the plains region and compare his\her diet to an Asian from the middle of China, their diets were VASTLY different. A nomadic culture over countless generations never developed agriculture, never could build large stockpiles of starchy foods for energy, adapted to burn animal fats for energy far more than starch. A high rice diet for someone like this would NOT be good for them. There can be no universal diet until humanity intermixes to a level that obliterates ethnicity altogether. That's going to take millions of years, not fifty. Hell, just saying a European diet is laughable considering how varied European climates and food availabilities are. Same with any continent. You talk about tailored medicine? Hopefully, in fifty years, we'll have tailored diets.
