Product description

Want a healthy food reset, a detox after Christmas and the New Year? Eaten too much wine and food and need to reset healthy habits? Plus a week off cooking and shopping? Then this could be the answer...

This five day food program (based on the Fast Mimicking Diet/FMD) was developed by Professor Valter Longo. I have based the recipes and ingredients on his principles.

The 'rules' for the FMD week, according to Valter Longo, are:

  • Day One – 1100 calories, Days two to five – 800 calories 
  • Confine eating to a 12-hour period e.g start after 8am, end before 8pm
  • Don't eat within three hours of bedtime
  • Drink plenty of water and can also have black tea, coffee, herbal teas etc.
  • You can find out more about it at https://valterlongo.com/fasting-mimicking-program-and-longevity/
  • The basic idea is to restrict calories, control macronutrient ratios (10% carbs, 15% protein, 75% fats), promote cellular autophagy (the body’s "clean-up" process) and enhance metabolic flexibility (switching from glucose to fat burning)

  • Day 1 menu totals 1100 calories (400 lunch, 600 dinner and 100 snack) and then it's 800 calories a day (lunch 300, dinner 400, snack 100) for the next four days
