The Nordic diet consists of oily fish (herring, salmon), grape seed oil, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, venison (deer) meat instead of beef, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts.
One study analyzed the different health benefits that consuming the Nordic diet brings. They noticed that switching to grape seed oil is an essential part of the diet because it is rich in omega-3 fats (reduces inflammation). They also found that the berries are packed with vitamins and antioxidants that help with anti-ageing. In addition, the researchers found that venison meat is a very good source for iron and provides long-lasting energy. Lastly, the team found that those who followed the diet lost significantly more weight compared to those who did not follow the diet.
According to dietitian, Geraldine Georgeou:
“The easiest way to reap benefits of the Nordic diet is by replacing wheat with rye as it is packed with slow-digesting fibre and prevents sharp rises in blood sugar that create food cravings.”
If you are interested in receiving some of these great health benefits, you might want to consider following the Nordic diet it's quite possible you'll enjoy it.
Have a good day.
