Reviewer 2 Report
If possible consider shortening the title to make it more objective. Make it clear that it is a trial in the title
Leave the introduction in continuous text without subtopics to facilitate the logical reasoning and the understanding of the hypothesis of the study.
Insert references of other studies in line 58 page 2.
Leave the same objective in the introduction and in the abstract.
Page 3. lines 113-117 How many participants were allocated to each arm of the study?
Page 4. lines 155-164 - was any treatment done to reduce intra- and inter-individual diet variability?
It makes more sense to put BMI in table 2 and not 3.
Add reference page 11 line 341 and 342 about BMI
Put the limitations of the study at the end of the discussion
It was not clear to me how changes in food prices over time were controlled for in the analyses. Could you please clarify in the methods?
