“Depressive symptoms were reduced by dietary interventions that result in improved quality of nutrient intake, weight loss, or fat reduction regardless of the specific type of diet. This was a meta-analysis of 16 randomized controlled trials and suggests that any dietary intervention that improves diet quality and reduces weight may improve symptoms of depression.”

“Treating HIV, reducing chronic inflammation, losing substantial excess fat, correcting vitamin D deficiency, or improving cardiometabolic dysfunction can move clocks more dramatically than adding a modest supplement to an already healthy baseline. Calorie restriction and weight loss "CALERIE is strong human evidence that caloric restriction can slow DunedinPACE by about 2-3%.".”

“A recent review and meta-analysis found that fasting-based strategies are slightly more effective for promoting weight loss and improving insulin sensitivity than calorie restriction.”

“A low-gluten, high-fiber diet changed gut microbiome composition, led to modest weight loss, and reduced bloating but had no effect on blood levels of glucose, lipids, or markers of inflammation compared to high-gluten matched fiber diet.”

“Roughly two-thirds of all adults living in the United States are overweight or obese. Losing weight presents many challenges, however, and popular weight-loss diets and dietary patterns are not always successful or sustainable.”

“Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects about 1 in 5 women of reproductive age and is often difficult to treat, particularly when it comes to weight loss and hormone balance. In a new randomized trial, researchers tested whether time-restricted eating (TRE) could improve body weight and metabolic health in PCOS patients without requiring calorie counting.”

“A low-carb diet for 4 weeks reversed metabolic syndrome without weight loss in 50% of the study participants. The low-carb diet also decreased triglycerides and improved LDL cholesterol metabolism by decreasing small, dense LDL particles.”

“Protein improves satiety, helping control hunger, and supports fat loss by preserving lean body mass during calorie restriction. Combined with resistance training, a high-protein diet ensures more weight loss comes from fat rather than muscle.”

“All eating was supervised and approached metabolic ward rigor. The improvements in metabolism were independent of weight loss and the reduction in blood pressure was so significant that it was comparable to the standard of care blood pressure medication (ACE inhibitors).”

“A recent study found that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, such as Ozempic, Wegovy, or others, may double the risk of developing neovascular age-related macular degeneration, the most serious form of the disease.”
