Risk of Adverse Outcomes in Females Taking Oral Creatine Monohydrate: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
This is a meta analysis for Creatine, which has been studied to death but rarely with female study participants. Creatine is a well known safe performance enhancer for exercise in short bursts (weightlifting, powerlifting, sprinting)

Saturated Fats and Health: A Reassessment and Proposal for Food-based
Recommendations: JACC State-of -the-Art Review
Condensed Abstract
Condensed Abstract: Overall, the results of randomized clinical trials and observational cohort
studies do not support a rationale for population-wide restriction of dietary saturated fat to a
target below current intake levels. Furthermore, lower cardiovascular disease risk cannot be
confidently inferred from reduction in plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations
induced by such a dietary restriction. Conversely, a reciprocal increase in carbohydrate intake
can lead to unfavorable changes in cardiometabolic risk factors. A food-based approach to
guiding saturated fat intake is warranted particularly since foods have a complex matrix, and
their health effects cannot be predicted by the content of any individual nutrient.

Effects of Gradual Weight Loss vs Rapid Weight Loss
This systematic review and meta-analysis compared the effects of different rates of weight loss (WL), but equivalent total WL, on body composition and resting metabolic rate (RMR)
Gradual weight loss significantly preserved RMR compared with rapid weight loss

Impact of a Ketogenic Diet on Metabolic Parameters in Patients with Obesity or Overweight and with or without Type 2 Diabetes: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Taken from the Abstract of this Meta Analysis
Our study findings confirmed that ketogenic diets were more effective in improving metabolic parameters associated with glycemic, weight, and lipid controls in patients with overweight or obesity, especially those with preexisting diabetes, as compared to low-fat diets.

This is one of the big ones
Herbalife is a massive MLM supplement company, it is often pushed both by new members and spammers trying to suck people into the pyramid scheme, I have posted stuff about this company before, but these studies/articles look at the health implications of the products.
Herbalife - LiverTox - NCBI Bookshelf (last updated 2018) The LiverTox list is worth looking through if you have any liver concerns
Herbalife or Herbadeath? article about Herbalife products with heavy metals, toxins, psychotropic substances, and pathogenic bacteria.
Sci-Hub | Slimming to the death: Herbalife® associated fatal acute liver failure – heavy metals, toxic compounds, bacterial contaminants and psychotropic agents in products sold in India. Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hepatology | 10.1016/j.jceh.2018.08.002 a scientific paper referred to in the above article.

I knew no MLM product could be good but that´s scary.

I tried Herbalife a couple of years ago. Glad I hated it and canned it after a few weeks
Didn't get a refund though

Previously I tried to read a lot about food, its impact on life, on the body, but I realized that the books are either too complicated or meaningless. I always try to find the most important information in short, but it doesn't always work out. I know only Herbalife, the rest are new for me. Thank you.

As far as I can tell the main things to look out for are:
- sticking to mostly homecooked meals with
- protein and some fat in every meal as well as
- plenty of veg (including legumes) and some fruit, plus of course
- mostly water and unsweetened teas/coffee for hydration
That way you won´t go far off health-wise. Yes you still need to control calories to some extent but if you go that route you´ll have a pretty good idea of how much you´re taking in anyway.

Stevia Beverage Consumption prior to Lunch Reduces Appetite and Total Energy Intake without Affecting Glycemia or Attentional Bias to Food Cues: A Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial in Healthy Adults - PubMed
Conclusions: This study found a beneficial and specific effect of a stevia beverage consumed prior to a meal on appetite and energy intake in healthy adults.

Branched-Chain Amino Acid Supplementation Does Not Preserve Lean Mass or Affect Metabolic Profile in Adults with Overweight or Obesity in a Randomized Controlled Weight Loss Intervention - PubMed
Conclusions: BCAA supplementation does not preserve lean mass or affect insulin sensitivity in overweight and obese adults during weight loss. A higher protein diet may be more advantageous for lean mass preservation.
