In her latest book, best-selling author Anjum Anand uses the ancient principles of Ayurveda to create a collection of delicious everyday dishes that are also good for you. In her early 20's Anjum was a serial dieter - it wasn't until she discovered the secrets of Ayurveda and began applying these to the foods she ate that she found a way of life that helped her lose and maintain weight loss.

Ayurveda is the oldest and most holistic medical system on the planet and translates as ‘the science of living wisely and well'. Ayurveda teaches us how to maintain optimum health and harmony both within ourselves and with nature. It recognizes three body types and, once your body type is established, its easy to find, not only the best diet to suit, to help get your body back into shape, but to also correct any imbalances to resolve eating and digestive disorders, sleep problems and many other illnesses.

In this ground-breaking new book Anjum shows how to work out your body type, the foods to eat and those to avoid, and how to combine them into delicious recipes for everyday situations. Her collection of recipes are inspired from both Eastern and Western cuisines. The book features complete food charts stating which foods are best for the three body types. For those purely interested in healthy eating, the 75 recipes are all low fat and healthy, each labeled with its suitability to body type. Throughout the book are good eating hints and tips, a range of meal plans and advice on recommended exercise and lifestyle for each body type.
