Dieting has hazards that are rarely pointed out. Yo-yo dieting is particularly dangerous and ineffective, because it decreases the metabolism, leading to an immediate weight gain once the caloric restrictions are eased. Some dieters resort to over the counter (OTC) and/or prescribed medications to improve their results, but many of these have been proven to be extremely hazardous to the health (and consequently withdrawn from sale) so consumers need to be wary.

Successful weight loss diet is all about energy in vs. energy out. If a person takes in fewer calories than he or she expends over a period of time, the person may burn fat and subsequently lose weight. To lose a pound of fat, one must create a caloric deficit of approximately 3,500 calories; therefore, if a person creates a deficit of 500 calories per day, the person will lose approximately 1 pound of fat per week. However, these numbers are strictly "in theory," and again what works for one person usually will not work for all.

Medical conditions often require the use of a special diet that either contains or lacks certain chemicals. A person who has diabetes is often on a diet designed to carefully regulate their blood sugar level, sufferers of celiac disease must follow a gluten-free diet, the lactose-intolerant omit milk and dairy products, and people with kidney disease must follow a strict low-sodium diet to ease the strain on their kidneys.
