Temporarily lowers calorie intake but lacks long-term metabolic benefits and may induce nutrient deficiencies.
Micronutrientsⓘ
3
Severely lacks essential vitamins and minerals, leading to significant deficiencies.
Nutrient Densityⓘ
3
Relies on low-variety, water-rich foods with limited nutrient concentration per calorie.
Overall Healthⓘ
2
Severe nutrient deficiencies and unsustainable restrictions compromise long-term health and metabolic function.
Sustainabilityⓘ
2
Severely restricts food variety and nutrient balance, making long-term adherence impractical and unsustainable.
Lifestyle Fitⓘ
3
Severely restricts social interactions, travel adaptability, and daily convenience, causing significant lifestyle disruption.
Practicalityⓘ
7
Offers low cost and accessibility but requires strict meal repetition and limited variety, reducing long-term practicality.
Appetite Controlⓘ
5
Limited protein and restrictive nature may cause hunger but low energy density provides temporary satiety.
Fat Qualityⓘ
2
Severely restricts essential healthy fats and lacks omega-3 sources, promoting an imbalanced and deficient fat profile.
Fiber Intakeⓘ
3
Primarily relies on limited insoluble fiber from cabbage, lacking diversity and functional benefits for long-term gut and metabolic health.
Gut Healthⓘ
3
Severely restricts dietary diversity and may impair microbiome diversity and digestive tolerance.
Hormonal Supportⓘ
2
Severe caloric restriction and nutrient deficiencies disrupt insulin, cortisol, sex hormones, and thyroid function.
Macro Balanceⓘ
3
Significantly low in protein and fat, leading to poor macro balance.
Protein Qualityⓘ
2
Severely inadequate in essential amino acids and digestible protein sources, leading to significant muscle catabolism and satiety deficits.
Tasteⓘ
3
Limited flavor variety and repetitive meals reduce long-term enjoyment and adherence.
Body Compositionⓘ
3
Primarily induces water and glycogen loss with minimal fat loss and significant lean mass risk.
Energy Balanceⓘ
4
Limited calorie control due to restrictive structure and poor satiety, leading to unsustainable energy management.
Lean Massⓘ
2
Severely restricts protein and energy intake, leading to significant muscle catabolism during weight loss.
Athletic Supportⓘ
2
Severely limits energy, macronutrients, and recovery-supporting nutrients critical for athletic performance.
Weight Lossⓘ
3
Creates a temporary calorie deficit but risks muscle loss, metabolic slowdown, and poor long-term adherence.
