Review:
We have heard our elders saying, “Health is Wealth”. Our health is mainly dependent upon the food that we eat. If we eat fresh food which is rich in nutrients then, we will remain healthy. Else, we may suffer from various diseases.
Dr. Amrita’s book ‘Nutrition Diet Myths & Life’ focuses on the importance of eating right. The book aims to bust some nutritional beliefs and myths that we hear about.
The book also contains a comprehensive guide on diseases like Hypothyroidism, rheumatoid arthritis, cancer etc. Here, the author has shared how we can stay from such kind of diseases. She has also highlighted the role of eating the right food at the right time to keep ourselves protected from seasonal diseases.
In her book, Dr. Amrita has also highlighted the relation between food and mental health. Yes, our diet influences our mood, OCD (Obsessive Compulsion Disorder) etc. The author has included a bonus content – excerpts from her upcoming book ‘Veggies & Power Veggies’. Here, she has talked about the nutrients that are present in the vegetables and its medicinal usage. The author has also underlined the importance of checking the labels of packaged before consuming them.
This book is a must-read. I recommend you to read this book, and make others read to spread awareness about nutrition and balanced diet.
