Chronic diseases are the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Although the adoption of a healthy diet is recognized as an important
component for their prevention andmanagement, many individuals at risk of or having chronic diseases do not adhere to recommended
dietary advice. The methods used to facilitate changes in dietary habits through dietary advice (defined in this review as ’interventions’)
could improve adherence of clients to dietary advice. Therefore, we reviewed trials of interventions aiming to enhance adherence to
dietary advice for preventing and managing chronic diseases in adults.
