I have read tons of weight loss books over the years—either for myself or for my “over-healthy” loved ones---yet I got to admit Elaine Keller’s ‘Light your Fire: The Ayurveda Diet for Weight Loss’ stands out as a unique, amazingly powerful way to help us achieve our weight loss goals.As anyone who is aware of Ayurveda or those who have been to India and encountered it, it is one of the world’s most ancient belief systems that revolves around achieving and maintaining health through natural means. What sets Keller’s book apart from all the rest is how she hits the nail on the head, and do so powerfully. The book addresses the problem with weight loss right at its very root: why the Western lifestyle has been causing it, and why all those fancy-schmancy weight loss methods espoused by this or that celebrity doctor fail—because they miss the simple truth. And what that truth is, and how you can implement it to save you or your loved ones life from the ravages of weight-related health disorders (not to mention its effects on our outlook in life and self-esteem) are discussed exhaustively in this book. Believe me, when I say it is comprehensive, I’m not kidding. The Ayurveda approach to weight loss is also interesting and rather ironic: obesity is largely a problem of the West, and yet this Eastern approach appears to be the best way to combat it.Overall, ‘Light Your Fire’ is an immensely life-changing book—it is full of actionable information, the kind of information you can use right away. It opens your eyes to the mechanism of how fat accumulates in our body—and with your eyes finally open, your mind educated, you are finally able to implement a regimen that does not only work so well in eliminating fat and toxins from the body, but also greatly improve your disposition, mood, and general outlook. If there’s any weight loss book you can read today, make it ‘Light Your Fire.’ You won’t be disappointed.
