My diet is fine. You may have missed that I’m cutting out things that qualify as snacks. Things whose nutritional content is limited and are mostly fat and carbohydrates, including those commonly eaten right after what might otherwise be a sensible meal.
I’m talking biscuits (cookies), cakes and the like. I already don’t eat crisps (chips) nor do I drink anything with fizz or sugar (or both).
If I can’t get to a good weight doing just that, I might look into alternative sources of nutrition and superfoods, but those tend to cost the sort of money that I can ill afford to spend.
Also, I looked at the blurb for that book and it claims that it contains recipes that will “treat” cancer. That’s weasel wording to avoid being called snake oil, while at the same time convincing the gullible that it contains a cure, so you’ll forgive me if I give it a miss.
I didn’t recommend the book, I recommended the ingredients-lists in it, for the specific metabolisms/doshas.
( I’m presuming this is about Frawley’s “Ayurvedic Healing”: here in Notifications, & I’m trying to get through 800+ of the things tonight, that context isn’t visible. )
It isn’t even relevant to me what else it says in the book!
Why should I care?
those ingredients-lists are MAGIC level of help/good!
That’s it: that’s all I care about.
Life-saving help, making healing significantly more-possible, more-easy, & more-comprehensible.
But nobody, anywhere, needs to accept truth from a subset-of-a-book, if they contempt the book-as-a-whole.

Give it a miss: good.

That’s how humans decide validity.
& that’s fine.
