About this listen

There's a lot you probably don't know about the Buddha. For one, the real Buddha was thin. And before he became the "Enlightened One", he was a pampered prince named Siddhartha. He tried starving himself in his quest for inner peace, but found that extremes brought him no closer to enlightenment. Instead, he sought a "middle way" between unhealthy overindulgence and unrealistic abstinence. The instructions he gave his monks about eating, more than 2,500 years ago, were surprisingly simple.

Fast forward to today. Cutting-edge scientific research tells us something Buddha knew all along: it's not what you eat, but when you eat that's most important. You don't need to follow the latest fads or give up your favorite foods. You just need to remember a few guidelines that Buddha provided - guidelines that, believe it or not, will help you lose weight, feel better, and stop obsessing about food. Sure, Buddha lived before the age of cronuts, but his wisdom and teachings endure, providing us with a sane, mindful approach to eating.

With chapters that ponder questions like "What would Buddha drink?" and "Did Buddha do Crossfit?", Buddha's Diet offers both an attainable and sustainable strategy for achieving weight-loss nirvana.

There are many easy and meaningful ideas conveyed in this book, concerning diet, losing weight, eating habits, mental health, lifestyle, Buddhism and more. Almost all ideas are part of the Buddhist wisdom so they are old and trustable. For example, this book talks about eating more in the daytime and eating very less in the evening and night time to give our bodies a chance to digest the food we eat in a timely way.

There are many other wonderful ideas conveyed in this book! Along with learning an approach to losing weight, we can learn about many important ideas of the Buddhist religion as well. They even share a lot about Buddha himself. It's a great book overall. I enjoyed it a lot!
