About eDiets

eDiets was an online diet and nutrition platform offering personalized meal plans, diet counseling, and weight loss support programs tailored to individual health goals, dietary preferences, and medical conditions. Founded in 1996, the site was among the early pioneers of internet-based weight management, preceding the explosion of mobile diet apps by a decade.

The platform offered a range of structured diet programs including the Atkins diet, South Beach diet, vegetarian plans, and medically supervised programs with registered dietitian support. Users could receive customized meal plans, shopping lists, and nutritional guidance delivered digitally without needing to purchase proprietary food products.

eDiets has evolved significantly and some services have been discontinued. The online diet and nutrition space is now served by apps like Noom, MyFitnessPal, Cronometer, and structured programs like WeightWatchers, which offer similar personalization with better mobile integration.
