The paper makes no assertions about change in risk when the risk is high.

#4doesn't increase eating disorder incidence for undergrad women "who had not engaged in dietary self-monitoring in the past year and who were at low-risk for an eating disorder" and who were willing to sign up for this
Re: Calorie Counting App Has No Effect on Mental Health or Health Behaviors
#5People at risk or susceptible to an eating disorder are more likely to attach self worth to cutting calories and will use dietary self monitoring to achieve their goals. It's good that a correlation in the opposite direction lacks evidence, according to this study.

#6It's not surprising that merely counting calories has no effect.
The idea that all calories are the same is flawed. In fact, obesity is the result of the wrong types of foods i.e. sugars which are metabolised differently by the body than other types.
Sugar triggers the insulin response which leads to overeating and detrimental fluctuations in cognitive capacity and concentration.
What would be more beneficial than calorie counting would be dietary education.

It is not possible to gain weight by eating your total daily calorie expenditure in pure sugar.
Yes, not all calories are metabolized the same, and sugar may lead to over eating, but at the end of the day, it’s a simple equation. You can’t gain weight without taking in more than you’re putting out.

Why is understanding that it’s impossible to gain wright without eating above your TDEE a cult?
It’s basic thermodynamics.
