dietary management

Planned food intake

Dietary management is the planning and control of food intake to achieve health goals.

It may address weight loss, chronic conditions like diabetes, food allergies, or nutritional deficiencies.

The term appears in medical and institutional contexts: The patient's dietary management includes limiting sodium.

Unlike casual dieting, dietary management implies systematic oversight, often by healthcare professionals.
