Abstract: Obesity one of the most important public health problems worldwide. Weight reduction depends upon food eaten, type of food eaten, timing of meals, and amount of food eaten. A low-calorie diet with a low fat or carbohydrate content, ketogenic diet or high-protein diet has been recommended for weight reduction, although the potential risks and long-term effectiveness remain unknown. Meal timing is also an important factor in weight management, and higher-calorie breakfasts in combination with overnight fasting may help to prevent obesity. This review summarizes type of food eaten weight loss and weight-loss management based on these components.
