Could Nordic diet be the secret?


Forget the Mediteranean diet, the latest diet to be touted as the most healthy both nutritionally and for weight loss is the Scandanavian diet.
their native fruits include blueberries, cowberries and cowberries (the names themselves make you want to eat them - like some kind of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory type fruits) which are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids. And the high percentage of lean meat and fish, such as elk, reindeer andn herring are high in protein which have been shown to keep you fuller for longer. Might be worth a try if can handle a herring roll mop. What do you think?

It certainly is a nice diet if you can afford it. Cloudberries and reindeer meat aren't cheap. Lovely food though. Some nice pickled herrings of various flavours can be found in the food section of Ikea. Rye bread is also a tasty alternative to normal wheat bread, if you can find it.
