Today, one cannot ignore health, diet, physical activity and exercise, if one wishes to lead a healthy and stress-free life. The need of the hour is to contemplate on the advantages of good health and achieve this through good foods and balanced diets.

This book on Low Calorie Recipes has been very painstakingly compiled and presented by Parul, wife of Dr. Kaushik Gandhi. The pages are replete with low calorie recipes that are not only healthy, but also easy to prepare and totally delicious, actually retaining the nutritive value of the ingredients used.

Apart from recipes, some pages are devoted to tips for healthy living, basics of a balanced diet, alternatives to high calorie foods and a few home remedies. Eat-to-live and not live-to-eat is the dictum that resounds throughout the book, right from subjective selection of ingredients, spices, seasonings and low-flame cooking to the objective of serving something good and wholesome, with love and care.
