Ayurveda is widely considered to be one of the oldest health care
traditions still in practice today. Originating in India over 3,000
years ago, it is now increasingly recognized and practiced globally
including in many European countries and the United States. Food
and nutrition play a crucial role in the health care wisdom of
Ayurveda. The Ayurvedic Science of Food and Nutrition discusses the
various principles of healthy eating as prescribed by Ayurveda.
Divided into three sections, it addresses the fundamentals, the
clinical applications, and the future challenges of Ayurveda.
Specifically, the book discusses issues such as the concept of
diet, the use of food as medicine, especially to treat diabetes and
cancer, convalescent food practices, and fasting therapy. The
Ayurvedic Science of Food and Nutrition is unique in that it is one
of the only books to investigate the scientific rationale behind
Ayurveda, enabling this health care tradition to potentially be
incorporated into a Western clinical practice model when this
latter conventional therapy is found to be ineffective.
