    Oesophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is increasingly associated with obesity, metabolic dysfunction, and genetic predispositions. This review explores how nutritional factors interact with these risk elements, emphasizing the potential of dietary strategies in EAC prevention and management. Diets such as the Mediterranean and plant-based patterns may reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, and metabolic imbalance, thereby modulating cancer risk. Nutrient-rich foods–particularly omega-3 fatty acids, cruciferous vegetables, and dietary fibre–offer additional protective effects. Personalized nutrition, tailored to individual genetic and metabolic profiles, is emerging as a promising tool in cancer prevention. Moreover, weight management strategies like caloric restriction and intermittent fasting may contribute to risk reduction. Integrating these approaches into clinical and public health practices could play a critical role in mitigating the underlying drivers of EAC. Further research is needed to strengthen dietary guidelines and advance precision nutrition for high-risk populations.

    The Very Low-Energy Ketogenic Therapy (VLEKT) is a structured, multi-phase dietary regimen characterized by a carbohydrate intake of less than 50 g/day and a daily caloric intake of fewer than 800 kcal, which induces ketosis and facilitates significant weight loss. Evidence suggests that this nutritional therapy can improve glycemic control, lipid profiles, and blood pressure, making it a promising option for managing type 2 diabetes (T2D) and reducing cardiovascular risk. These benefits are achieved through reductions in triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), alongside increases in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c). However, the effects of the VLEKT on lipid metabolism remain controversial. The review emphasizes the urgent need for further research to validate the long-term safety and efficacy of the VLEKT. It also highlights the critical role of personalized dietary plans, supervised by healthcare professionals, to optimize health outcomes and address individual patient needs.
