Description
Thereโs a lot you probably donโt know about the Buddha. For one, the real Buddha was thin. And before he became the โEnlightened One,โ 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 โmiddle wayโ 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. Itโs not what you eat, but when you eat thatโs most important. You donโt need to follow the latest fads or give up your favorite foods. You just need to remember a few guidelines that Buddha providedโguidelines 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 โWhat would Buddha drink?โ and โDid Buddha do Crossfit?โ Buddhaโs Diet offers both an attainable and sustainable strategy for achieving weight-loss nirvana.
