The Classic Ikarian plan follows the traditional island diet as closely as possible. Every day includes vegetables or wild greens, olive oil and bread, and most days include a bean or lentil dish. Goat yogurt and cheese appear in small amounts, fish two or three times a week, and meat only occasionally.
There is no calorie target. Instead, the plan focuses on the balance of your plate and on eating slowly, ideally with other people.
