One meal a day, fasting the rest of the time.
“My son, attend to my words; Incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; Keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, And health to all their flesh. Keep thy heart with all diligence; For out of it are the issues of life.” Proverbs 4:20–23 (KJV 1900) “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: But a broken spirit drieth the bones.” Proverbs 17:22 (KJV 1900)
Moderate exercise.

I don't think I could get the adequate nutrients my body needs with just one meal a day.

It's not for everyone. But it works for me and my wife to control weight.

Decades ago I had a Health-related DNA test to show my strengths and weaknesses. I hit the jackpot scoring the best in all of the areas except one. I have weak bones prone to breakage. So I offset this with years of weight-lifting. It is supposed to strengthen bones. So far I only broke a couple of bones in my foot standing on a shovel digging a hole in Crocs. But it healed right away with no lingering side effects.

1 - Avoid seed oils (also known as vegetable oils) - almost everything now is made with seed oil, 100 years ago when there was very little degenerative disease, there was virtually no seed oil. People used traditional fats like butter, olive oil, and beef tallow. You can find a good alternative for a lot of seed oil products if you look. For example, here's a list i found of where to get fries without seed oil.
2 - There's some pretty unfortunate chemical contamination in foods.. You can look up a report on the pesticide content in food at the store. More than half the bread has detectable pesticides in it. (might be why people feel better going grain-free... it isn't the grain, it's the chemicals!) So I go for certified organic stuff, and generally avoid store-bought grains anyway. Also filter my water to remove pesticides and the other nasty chemicals that get in there.
3 - Lifestyle. Get enough sleep, don't strain, don't be filled with bitterness
These will destroy health. "Consider the lilies of the field" is one of my favorite verses, and good advice for health too! Funny how that works out
Just my opinion! But it's worked pretty well for me and my family. (One thing I would say is to not do anything strange or excessively restrictive in the name of health, like going vegan, or low carb, or getting obsessed with some "protocol." Usually pretty unhelpful to do that kind of thing, and can even be BAD for health I think.)
