Why is a balanced plan better than a crash diet in a low-energy diet?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A balanced plan reduces nutrient deficiency and improves long-term adherence
A balanced low-energy plan creates a controlled energy deficit while preserving essential nutrients, adequate protein, fibre, vitamins, minerals, and appropriate food variety. Gradual weight reduction is generally more sustainable and less likely to cause weakness or rebound overeating. Crash diets may be nutritionally incomplete and difficult to maintain. Therefore, option A is correct.
