Some people have an ailment that requires them to avoid certain foods, such as people with lactose intolerance who are allergic to milk. Another example of this is hypoglycemia, where a person's ability to regulate the level of sugar in their blood using Insulin is slightly impaired and needs to eat at regular intervals to make sure this process goes well.

Age, gender, activity level, and size of the person involved may also mean the person needs a special diet. Children need more energy than adults because their bodies are developing, and large people generally eat more than small people.
