dietary regimen

Structured food intake

A dietary regimen is a structured eating plan followed for health, weight management, or medical purposes.

Unlike casual eating habits, a regimen implies deliberate rules and consistency: Her doctor put her on a strict dietary regimen after the diagnosis.

The phrase often appears in clinical or fitness contexts where systematic approaches to nutrition matter.
