Written by Marc Raven & Phatsuda ‘Beau’ Kaenakat , founders of the iconic Thai Tum restaurant in Somerset. Drawing upon a lifetime’s experience of Thai cuisine, this book uses Thai recipes, acknowledged by many as the world’s healthiest food, to help you on your way with the 5:2 plan. Marc Raven also recounts his personal experience with intermittent fasting and explores the most endearing aspect of this diet, namely that it can result in a very healthy re-education in the notions of food and hunger and, therefore, it can easily become a sustainable and rewarding lifestyle rather than a diet. The book features many of the great recipes from the restaurant.
This is not another diet book, it’s about changing your life.
For diet beginners there is a simple explanation of the 5:2 diet principals.
For Thai beginners there are useful and practical sections on:
- The health benefits of Thai herbs - Useful explanations of Thai ingredients and where to get them - Store cupboard essentials - Handy hints for cooking Thai food - 52 easy to follow Thai recipes – all achievable in 20 minutes or less - Hot drinks and tisanes for health
