Book Summary – 

Eating in the Age of Dieting is a collection of the author’s popular columns and social media posts compiled to challenge fad diets and nutrition myths. It advocates returning to traditional eating habits rooted in local, seasonal, and cultural foods—typified by wisdom passed down from grandmothers rather than marketing trends or calorie counting. The book is divided into four sections: recognizing food as a blessing, embracing local and seasonal meals, using wholesome food as medicine, and addressing women’s and children’s health needs. Diwekar insists food should be enjoyed mindfully—attention rather than restriction is paramount—and encourages moderation, not deprivation. She dispels myths about foods like ghee, peanuts, rice, eggs, jaggery, and sabudana, highlighting their nutritional value when consumed traditionally, and underscores that health cannot be built by ostracizing them. Interspersed with witty and quotable insights, the book provides practical guidance rooted in Indian heritage as well as modern nutrition science
