Five Day FMD Reset Menu
Want a week of fresh food cooked for you w/b 23rd March that's low in calories but high in flavour?
Need to reset your eating habits for better wellbeing and feel great for the Easter holidays?
This might be your answer...
It has been well publicised that research has recently caught up with the ancient practice of fasting and detoxing, with growing evidence of weight loss and reduced risks for cancer, diabetes, dementia and overall increases in longevity.
''The FMD Reset been absolutely brilliant. The food has been delicious and I’ve only occasionally felt hungry. I’ve lost my Christmas weight and slept so well. I’d happily do it every week!'' January 2026 customer
The snag? Fasting can be tough...
To remedy this, Professor Valter Longo of USC has spent a lifetime calibrating and researching a diet with many benefits of fasting – cellular clean up (autophagy), reduced inflammation and improved metabolic markers – without the pain of fully abstaining from food.
The result is his Fasting-Mimicking Diet (FMD), a five day diet high in unsaturated fats and low in calories, protein and carbs. Although following his diet is very 'doable', many online recipes or plans can be dull and flavourless.
''I really wanted to be able to critique your food in a helpful way but honestly EVERYTHING was delicious. We have totally stuck to the plan and it's been fine and we haven't even felt that hungry. And the absolute JOY of not having to weigh, chop or think about food has completely revolutionised FMD for us. No cooking, no washing up just pull out the next meal from the fridge. That is SO enjoyable!'' January 2026 customer
The answer?
I offer a menu of nutritious, flavour-packed, home-cooked and ‘compliant’ meals (see the menu here) - so they're ready in the fridge to make your five days tastier, more sustainable and easier.
You won't need to shop, weigh ingredients or cook. I've created a five day Reset menu with two different fresh meals and a snack each day. So you can do your own detox and healthy reset knowing the right meals are in the fridge ready and waiting.
You can also buy the menu for anyone in your family as it's easy to add extra protein and/or carbs to any of the meals as they have plenty of flavour to go round!
My next FMD Reset menu will be ready on 22nd March for collection from SN14 8AX or BA1 9AU

If you'd like more information on the science behind the FMD, two sources are:
- About the Japanese cell biologist Yoshinori Ohsumi who won the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2016 for his research on how cells recycle and renew their content; a process called autophagy.
- About Valter Longo who is credited with developing the Fast Mimicking Diet (FMD) upon which this menu is based.
