Overview

"Dr. Rupy is part of the new generation of physicians teaching people that food is medicine."—MARK HYMAN, MD

Discover the exact foods and spices that prevent and reverse the full spectrum of disease—from cancer and and autoimmune disorders to heart, brain, and inflammatory conditions, and skin, mood, and eye health—from an internationally bestselling author and trained medical doctor

Imagine a world in which common conditions such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and dementia are rare. Imagine feeling great all the time—with strong bone density and flexible joints, radiant hair and skin, a sharp mind, a healthy weight, sustained vision and hearing. Sound too good to be true? It’s not.

In Eat to Beat Illness, Dr. Rupy Aujla—emergency medical doctor, general physician, and bestselling author—shows you how. It all begins with the decisions you make about what you put on your plate. Dr. Aujla provides the latest research on how food impacts every system of your body. He explains the connection between nutrition and disease and  reveals the specific ingredients proven to boost prevention and wellbeing and reverse symptoms.

Eat to Beat Illness includes 80 nutritious recipes that combine these ingredients for optimum health. Dr. Aujla's approach isnt restrictive or bland; his dishes are creative, flavorful, and delicious, using a variety of spices and ingredients that pack a punch, such as cajun sweet potato hash, Sri Lankan cashew curry, jambalaya, spinach lasagna, and banana fritters with maple cream.
