It is just what I wanted as I wish to change my diet into eating more mung beans, lentils etc. It is a very informative book.
5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully brilliant

5.0 out of 5 stars Great starter book
Great book for getting to grips with the ideas behind Ayurveda and I’m hoping to use the principles to help ease the pain and exhaustion of M.E whilst keeping a positive attitude. Spoiler alert: you might have to look at your pooh.
5.0 out of 5 stars Ayurveda Beginner's Guide
This is a good book for beginners. I did not know anything about this subject so feel I now at least have the starting point.
4.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful to everyone interested in this healing practice.
Knew a lot of the contents already. However it shows a real insight into this age old tradition. Have practiced Ayurveda in the past and this book helped to revive that so I could practice it yet again.
Me encantó

Lenguaje muy cómodo y fácil de leer. Recomendable
Good introduction to Ayurveda for non-Indians
Bought it as a gift for a foreign friend. It’s written from an outsider’s perspective covering just the tip of the iceberg called Ayurveda. The content is elementary and easy to understand. A good read for non-Indian nationals.
Great Book
Great book excellent information!
Great for a beginner!
Im a complete beginner and found this book really easy to read and understand. I think it will be quite simple to implement into my lifestyle also. Great book!
Too high level
It has a very very high level and mostly westernised version of Ayurveda. Some concepts are also missing. I would recommend other books like Vasant Lad’s which are easy to follow and have all the relevant info. It’s probably for someone curious about the subject but not interested in following it deeply.
