Interventions
BEHAVIORAL

Acellular carbohydrate diet

Participants will be asked to consume 2,000 - 2,500 kcals, thereof 45 energy percent (E%) carbohydrate (up to 5 E% added sugar), 30 E% fat (10-12 E% saturated fatty acids and 7-10 E% polyunsaturated fatty acids) and 17 E% protein. They will use an original online/smartphone application that provides choices of meals/food combinations/recipes corresponding to their prescribed macronutrient profile and dietary pattern. Participants are asked to complete 3-day dietary records every 14 days throughout the study, and to report any deviations from the planned interventions.
