        @shamita The Comprehensive Assessment of Long-Term Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy (CALERIE) trial is a phase 2 study involving more than 200 normal to slightly overweight but otherwise healthy individuals up to aged 50 years. They were assigned to a personalized calorie restriction diet combined with individual and group counseling sessions aimed at reducing energy intake by 25%, or an ad libitum control group, who continued with their normal diet.
