Abstract
The article discusses how far commercial diet programs help in reducing weight of obese people. Some of the popular commercial diet programs include low-fat diet, low-fat diet combined with exercise, low-carbohydrate diet, and meal replacements. The results of a study on these programs confirmed that they are unable to reduce massive amount of flesh from the body. To reduce the weight it is important that energy intake is less than energy expenditure.
