One way to overcome the preventable, non-communicable diseases which is a challenge to public health is to facilitate a healthy diet with a sufficient nutritional value. In the Nordic regions great efforts have been made to focus on the health impacts of the dietary pattern, issuing guidelines for dietary composition and recommended intake of nutrients. These recommendations, The Nordic Nutrition Recommendations (NNR) forms the basis for the national dietary recommendations for the Nordic countries. These recommendations has instigated the creation of other food indexes with Nordic origin. This thesis aims to explore the different approaces to the Nordic diet and possible health effects.
