Council for healthy eating (4)
I believe the answer is:
'council' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for diet that I've seen before include "Legislative assembly; food regimen" , "Try to lose weight" , "Health food - Council" , "Weight-loss plan" , "Eat sparingly" .)
