His recently published book "Healing Cooking with Ayurveda" he wrote together with Dr. Dietrich Grönemeyer.

In their book, the two show how food works in the body and how Ayurveda can help us – often even where conventional medicine ends.

Stimulating self-healing powers is  represents the most important aspect in the millennia-old healing art of Ayurveda. Traditionally, the effect of food plays an important role.

"Ayurveda is the longest field study in history," says Volker Mehl. It is a traditional medical system that has been based on billions of observations and healing experiences for around 5,000-6,000 years. The theories and the therapies derived from them have been constantly tested and tried out in practice over the millennia. They have proven their validity to this day.

The book takes the reader on a journey... an introduction to the topic of Ayurveda with the main subjects: "doshas", "metabolism" and "medicinal herbs".
