Different Diets for Different Doshas

In Ayurveda, traditional Indian medicine, the three doshas (Vata, Pitta and Kapha) are the elemental forces that determine your constitution.

One dosha can be predominant, or two can be equally dominant: vata-pitta, pitta-kapha, vata-kapha; or all three can be equally dominant: vata-pitta-kapha.

Different Diets for Different Doshas will help you to determine which body type (dosha) you are, and the foods and cooking styles that best suit your individual constitution.

As you begin to select the right foods, prepare and cook them in a way that is both delicious and balancing for your body type. You will know whether you need a vata diet, a pitta diet or a kapha diet. Then you will start to enjoy a sense of power over your own health.

Inside this book you will find:

• A self-analysis chart to determine your dosha body type
