Smart Calories and Common Sense cuts through the confusion of fad diets and conflicting nutrition advice with an evidence-based, India-specific guide to lifelong health. Drawing on over four decades of clinical expertise and rigorous research, Dr Anoop Misra addresses the dietary roots of diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and other chronic conditions, offering clear guidance grounded in the latest science rather than trends or guesswork. From uncovering the truth about ghee and turmeric to examining the real impact of keto, fasting, and so-called ‘diabetes reversal’ diets, the book provides in-depth analyses of Indian superfoods such as jackfruit, fenugreek, and dates, explores the pros and cons of vegetarianism, and outlines the safest use of supplements. With dedicated chapters on liver health, immunity, brain function, and disease prevention, it equips doctors, nutritionists, and health-conscious readers to make informed choices. Authored by Dr Misra—Chairman of the Fortis–C-Doc Centre of Excellence for Diabetes and Endocrinology, a Padma Shri and Dr B. C. Roy Award recipient, and India’s leading researcher in diabetes, obesity, and nutrition—this book reflects his enduring commitment to accessible, science-backed care and better health for all.
