About this listen
There's a lot you probably don't know about the Buddha. For one, the real Buddha was thin. And before he became the "Enlightened One", 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 "middle way" 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: it's not what you eat, but when you eat that's most important. You don't need to follow the latest fads or give up your favorite foods. You just need to remember a few guidelines that Buddha provided - guidelines 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 "What would Buddha drink?" and "Did Buddha do Crossfit?", Buddha's Diet offers both an attainable and sustainable strategy for achieving weight-loss nirvana.

Common sense tells us that to lose weight, we must eat less and exercise more. But somehow we get stalled. We start on a weight-loss program with good intentions but cannot stay on track. Neither the countless fad diets, nor the annual spending of $50 billion on weight loss helps us feel better or lose weight. Too many of us are in a cycle of shame and guilt. We spend countless hours worrying about what we ate or if we exercised enough, blaming ourselves for actions that we can't undo.

Everywhere you look, people in all walks of life are “going minimalist” and getting rid of their possessions.

Light is famous for taking minimalism to the extreme—and now lives his whole life out of a single backpack. In Travel Light, he shares his surprising revelation that being a “spiritual minimalist” means you don’t focus on material objects.

Leading health blogger Jimmy Moore and researcher and internist Dr. Eric C. Westman join forces again to explain the powerful therapeutic effects of a ketogenic diet—one that combines a customized carbohydrate restriction, moderation of protein intake, and real food-based fats—which is emerging in the scientific literature as a means for improving a wide range of diseases, from Type 2 diabetes to Alzheimer's and more. Simply eating a low-carb diet alone isn't enough, and Moore and Westman tell you why. Have you looked at a low-carb diet simply as a means to lose weight? What if you learned that combining a low-carb nutritional approach with a high fat intake produces a powerful therapeutic effect on a wide variety of health conditions that most people think requires medication to control? That’s what Keto Clarity is all about. Jimmy Moore, a leading low-carb diet blogger and podcaster, has reunited with his Cholesterol Clarity co-author Dr. Eric C. Westman, a practicing internist and low-carb diet researcher, to bring you the crystal-clear information you need to understand what a ketogenic diet is and why it may be the missing element in your pursuit of optimal health. This book includes exclusive interviews from twenty of the world's foremost authorities from various fields bringing their depth of expertise and experience using this nutritional approach. Moore and Westman explain why ketosis is normal and how this nutritional approach is being used therapeutically by many medical professionals. You will find a step-by-step guide to help you produce more ketones and track your progress, real life success stories, and more. The solid evidence for nutritional ketosis in dealing with many of the chronic health problems of our day is presented, including but not limited to: epilepsy, Type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, polycystic ovarian syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome.

Great eating guidelines and Buddhist history
I have adopted this idea of a "Buddha's Diet" and I have found success with it. I enjoy this idea of eating only certain hours of the day. The book went beyond that though. It talked about mindfulness, meditation, healing your relationship with food, and so on. I loved the Buddhist stories and the history. The narration was excellent and well suited for this book. Friendly tone. I highly recommend this book and diet.

Buddha's Diet has so much to offer
I listened to the audiobook version on a recent road trip, and I liked the narrator, Pam Ward. Her voice is perfect for this book, instructional and soothing with a touch of humor when appropriate without the preachy tone that annoys me in some health books.
This was also a short book- four and a half hours which I find is perfect for a road trip because well, sometimes we want to listen to music too not just read a book.
Much of the concepts discussed in Buddha's Diet just make sense. For example- No eating later at night (most of us have heard how hard that is on our digestive system). The explanations are straightforward without being snarky or condemning and there is plenty of room to talk about having the right attitudes. I learned so much about Buddha and how monks live (and why). Definitely a worthy ready to round out basics on nutrition and taking care of our bodies!!!

Great Read!
I really like all the great information I received while reading Buddha’s diet. I chose this book because I’m on the same journey as Buddha was. I’m trying to connect deep to my inner and spiritual life.

Definitely keeping me more mindful
It’s good to hear this book especially if you’re having a hard time with weight loss or emotional eating. I am Buddhist myself but never really thought about how Buddhism and food go together. This is not a religious book at all! Thank you for writing it :)

nice performance, not new info.
I found this book by accident online while looking for something else and saw it was free on audible, so I figured I'd read it. for the most part it was good, but the information is all stuff that, at this point, has been made time and time again. mindful eating, and timed fasting. (fit all your meals Into a 9-hour window) but I would recommend it still for a quick read on a diet that seems pretty easy to follow. :)

Great book funny at times even.
Loved this book. It's informative and funny at its times. Relating to everyday difficulty of buddhist diet in the western setting. Engaging to everyday life with helpful ideas to combine at your will.

Dieting the Kind Way
The book definitely means what it says about teaching you to lose weight without losing your mind. Essentially, it’s about Intermittent Fasting, moderation, and making wise choices. It’s about keeping healthy and feeling good at the same time. My more relaxed alternative to the Fast 800 diet.

Interesting
Not what I expected, but I was still pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed how the author talked about lifestyle and not just the diet component... it’s fairly comprehensive.
