5:2 Diet - The Nordic Way: 4-week meal plan with recipes for fasting days

Great little book. Found it an easy read but not very easy for me to follow on a fixed income.

UPDATE: Amazon and the author have updated the description and title. Properly described, this seems like an excellent guide/intro to fasting days.

Not helpful at all

Really no info on Nordic diet just a few tasteless recipes that incorporate low fat and minimal calories for the two days a week that you are eating low calories (fasting days) The Nordic diet is not low fat so choosing 0 percent yogurt and lower fat meats seems odd. I need to start writing book trying to capitalize on trends. Very disappointing.

My daughter lives in Scandinavia and she is very food-conscious so I had good reason to read and like this book. Unlike another buyer, I did not find the title misleading. For me, it does all it says on the cover. What more could I ask? I have a philosophy that encourages me to look at the way other nationalities cook and eat, so the book was a double benefit to me. I have bought other cook books by Tarja Moles and I have to say I value all of them. I can heartily recommend this one.

This is NOT a "4 week meal plan". The Plan part is only for the 2 fasting days a week. It includes "recipes" like yogurt with berries that anyone could have come up with on their own. It also includes artificial sweeteners which I don't think are part of a New Nordic diet. If you want someone to describe how you should eat and then leave you to figure out the meals I guess this is your book. Somebody didn't do enough work here. That's my opinion.

I did not find this book very helpful at all, in fact I was disappointed, I was hoping for more info on the guideline of the eating program. I'm not a fan of fasting
