Supercharged Food: Eat Right for Your Shape is a practical guide and cookbook which takes a fresh look at the ancient Indian healing system of Ayurveda and applies it to the way we eat. Eat Right For Your Shape will help you to achieve the correct weight for your body type, connect with your constitutional needs and understand how to bring about harmony in your life through food, nutrition and mindfulness. Finding your dominant body type (or dosha) and keeping it in balance is the key to maintaining your weight and your overall health. An extensive, practical, introductory section covers the Ayurvedic approach to health and diet, and gives all the information you need to understand the unique characteristics and nutritional requirements of the three main doshas (including a quizz to help you identify your dominant dosha). It features tips, tables of dosha-specific foods and meal planners as well as yoga exercises illustrated with step-by-step photographs. The recipe section presents shopping lists and over 100 delicious dishes, organised by season. At-a-glance symbols indicate which dosha each recipe is suitable for, and which dishes are useful during intermittent fasting. An Ayurvedic approach to eating includes an awareness of the six tastes-sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent and astringent-which each affect particular doshas differently: recipes include symbols for each taste. Take the Ayurvedic path and enjoy good health, stabilised weight and abundant natural energy.
