  • Abstract:
  • Obesity is a major global public health problem characterized by excessive accumulation of body fat that increases the risk of numerous chronic diseases. The prevalence of obesity has increased rapidly over the past few decades due to unhealthy dietary habits, reduced physical activity, and environmental factors. Dietary intervention is considered a primary strategy in the management and treatment of obesity. Various dietary approaches including calorie restriction, Mediterranean diet, low-carbohydrate diet, high-protein diet, and behavioral nutrition interventions have been widely studied for weight reduction and metabolic improvement. Evidence suggests that dietary modification can significantly reduce body weight, improve lipid profile, enhance insulin sensitivity, and decrease the risk of chronic diseases. This review summarizes current evidence regarding different dietary interventions used for obesity management, their mechanisms of action, effectiveness, and challenges associated with long-term adherence. Understanding these strategies is essential for developing sustainable nutrition programs for obesity treatment.
