Description
Ayurveda for Obesity and Gut Health by Dr. L. Eduardo Cardona-Sanclemente offers a scientifically supported, Ayurvedic approach to weight management.
Explains how Ayurveda has understood and successfully managed obesity for centuries and how you can apply its insights to lose weight and keep it off.
Explores individual Ayurvedic body types, how wrong foods and wrong lifestyles affect each type, and how all these components coalesce with our unique metabolic rhythms in the process of weight management.
Presents several Ayurvedic body-mind protocols and suitable food intakes, detailing their effects on the gut, microbiota, and the gut-heart-brain axis as well as how they help rebalance metabolism at the tissular, cellular, and molecular levels.
Managing excess weight and developing a healthier body can be extremely challenging. But, as Dr. Eduardo Cardona-Sanclemente reveals, Ayurvedic medicine, the ancient Indian healing modality, has been used successfully to manage obesity for centuries. By integrating Ayurveda with modern medicine, you can develop a personalised, practical, and cost-effective approach to lose weightβand keep it off.
Illustrating the "why-how-when" of weight gain and fat from an Ayurvedic understanding, Dr. Cardona-Sanclemente explains how Ayurveda addresses obesity. He discusses gut health, metabolism, lymph, fascia, and the vagus nerve for physical and mental health. He shows that what is common to all is imbalance, with Ayurvedaβs core aim being to rebalance us and restore us to good health.
He explores individual Ayurvedic body-mind types, how wrong foods and wrong lifestyles affect each type, and how all these components coalesce with our unique metabolic rhythms in the process of weight management. He presents several Ayurvedic body-mind protocols and treatments, detailing suitable food intakes and their effects on the gut, microbiome, and the gut-heart-brain axis as well as how they help rebalance metabolism. He also provides self-evaluations to help you determine your Ayurvedic body type.
Supported throughout by up-to-date clinical research on Ayurvedic medicine and recent biomedical discoveries, this guide shows you how to integrate ancient medicine and modern science in your own life for lasting management of obesity and gut health.
