"Ne quid nimis" = nothing in excess
Apparently attributed to the playright Horace.
And latin is easier to write on a computer than greek or ancient coptic. It also used to be the prime langusge used in England up to the Middle Ages. It remained the language of choice for medical and scientific and ecclesiastical documentation until recently.
I habn't realized that you were following the Dr OZ diet. For those not familiar with this diet, here is a link

Actually, if you google metabolic rate diets, you get a load of **** diets like the above, so I don't think this is what Luna means. I suspect she is just using BMR to do calorie limiting. However, I cannot find anything that says carbs and fat and protein MUST be balanced, or any diet that mandates it either. I suspect that this aspect has come from the textbooks, but is not mandated elsewhere. Most of these diets that google finds seem to be just weight loss short term diets, probably not what Luna is following. However the meal plan she posted does seem to be very similar to the Prevention Cure diet from Prevention,com

Wealth warning applies. This diet also claims to allow diabetics to reduce or stop medications; Read with a pinch of salt, please.
