Dieting is the practice of eating food in a regulated way to decrease, maintain, or increase body weight, or to prevent and treat diseases such as diabetes and obesity.As weight loss depends on calorie intake, different kinds of calorie-reduced diets, such as those emphasising particular macronutrients (low-fat, low-carbohydrate, etc.), have been shown to be no more effective than one another.

Balasubramanian and Catherine Cole 2002, Tanja V.E. Kral et al. 2002, Jennifer D. Seymour et al. 2004, and Jayachandran N. Variyam 2005).
