Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent explain diet and diets, relay evidence on dietary patterns and medical diets from nutrition science and health authority sources with attribution, describe the named diets, caution about fad diets and route eating disorder concerns to support services, and distinguish diet from nutrition science, dieting for weight loss, food itself and eating disorders.

The kinds and amounts of food and drink a person or animal habitually consumes, and also a planned eating regimen for health, weight, medical or ethical reasons, including medical diets such as the clear liquid diet before procedures and immunonutrition for surgical patients, dietary patterns such as the Atlantic diet of Galicia and northern Portugal and the Mediterranean diet, and popular regimens such as raw food diets, while the registry aliases continental diet and mushroom diet are unclear; people with medical conditions, pregnancy or a history of eating disorders should seek professional advice before restrictive diets.

What it is for: Nourishment and health.

It can be explain dietary patterns with attribution; relay medical diet guidance; describe named diets; route eating disorder concerns.

  • How should nutrition guidelines be linked?
  • The registry aliases continental diet and mushroom diet could not be identified and should be reviewed
