diet management

Food intake regulation

Diet management is the practice of controlling what and how much one eats, typically to lose weight, address health conditions, or meet nutritional goals.

It encompasses meal planning, calorie tracking, and food choices: Her doctor recommended diet management for her diabetes.

The term appears in medical and wellness contexts, often implying ongoing oversight rather than a temporary diet.
