NOTE

Effect of Adherence on Diet Outcomes

In a meta-analysis of 14 popular diets, it was found that the success of a diet is more dependent on adherence rather than the specific diet type. People who were more adherent to a diet had better outcomes regardless of the diet chosen. The key takeaway is to choose a form of restriction that feels least restrictive to you, as any method can work if adhered to long-term. Having guidelines for dietary choices is recommended, but rigid rules can lead to unnecessary restrictions and potentially unhealthy behaviors. It is crucial to focus on what feels sustainable and manageable for individual preferences and needs in achieving long-term diet success.
