Summary: All I needed was a ratio adjustment
Comment: Traditional Ayurveda teachings are very valuable, and can help you learn a lot about your food choices. However, it really never went into the caloric ratios a certain body type needs to consume to find balance.
I'm a vata-pitta, but primarily a vata. I was following a high carbohydrate, low fat diet, which I read in this book was definitely the wrong thing for a vata to be doing. I needed more fat. 40% of my calories as a matter of fact. I'd tried everything else, so I gave the 40/40/20 ratio a shot. All I can say is, "WOW". Upping my fat intake way the key to finding balance through diet. Not to say everyone should eat 40% of their calories from fat. Only the vata type. The Pitta (or fire) type should eat 50% or more from carbs, 30% protein, and 20% or less from fat.
If I would have read this book 2 years ago, I would have missed out on a lot of unnecessary trial and error. Excellent book!

Summary: This book will change my life!
Comment: Dr. Thompson presents an ancient wisdom in an easy to read fashion. His presentation of the material is both insightful, well organized and entertaining. Which is quite a feat given the subject matter he has taken on here! The book includes a concise description of the background needed to understand the premises, a set of questions which gives the reader instant insight into his/her own typology, and suggestions for how to improve the quality of their lives based on that typology. I enjoyed reading the book and look forward to applying its principles in my new quality life!
