The Nordic Diet
The Nordic Diet stems from traditional cuisine in Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, and Norway. Unlike the Mediterranean diet, the Nordic plan allows a wide array of cooking oils and healthy fats. It also emphasizes buying nutritious foods from local vendors when possible.
People on the Nordic Diet limit red meats and animal fats. Instead, they receive protein from eggs, legumes, dairy, and lean meats. According to a 2014 study, the Nordic Diet lowers weight loss and blood pressure in obese people. However, the researchers noted that some dieters gained the weight back.
