The most effective diet for weight loss? Seems plausible. The most effective diet for being healthy, that sounds extremely unlikely. Even if your seven foods are nutritionally complete you’re not likely to be eating them in the right balances. Intuitive body regulation sounds good there but in general, our bodies are actually not so good at guessing that kind of thing.
No idea why you were downvoted. Humans have some correct intuitions on foods they need, but they are generally overwhelmed by wrong signals. My body certainly believes that it would profit from living off sugary fatty things, and that any multicoloured food has lots of nutrients, or that anything acidic is high in vitamins, which is why acidic, multicoloured candy is obviously a complete diet. I see why it thinks that and why that would help in a natural environment, but it really does not help with typical foods.
