What doesn't make sense to me is what this diet was actually composed of. > The programme induces weight loss with a period of formula low energy TDR, providing all essential nutrients in around 850 kcal/ day, creating a sizable energy deficit and therefore substantial weight loss. Given that Counterweight Plus can be many things (judging by the website), I don't know what this study actually demonstrates. Maybe the weight loss and remission is associated with the lower energy intake, or it may be associated with whatever diet may have been eaten. What were the subject's diets before? We don't know. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm not sure we can tell.
