Background Evidence is needed for the best long-term diet for weight loss, and improvement in cardiac risk and disease in obese adults.Methods We systematically reviewed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in any language. We searched 13 databases and handsearched journals. Trials lasted I year or more. One investigator extracted the data and a second checked data extraction.

Blood pressure, lipids and fasting plasma glucose improved with these diets after 12 months. Four studies found that LFDs may prevent type 2 diabetes and reduce antihypertensive medication for up to 3 years'. A very low calorie diet (VLCD,
