INTUITIVE EATING: A COMPLETE AND SIMPLE GUIDE

 

LEARN TO EAT WELL WITHOUT DIETS, WITHOUT RESTRICTIONS AND WITHOUT PREJUDICE

ABOUT THIS BOOK

The Intuitive Eating diet is a way of eating that focuses on listening to your body, rather than obsessively counting calories or restricting food intake based on an arbitrary goal. It's not about starving yourself or giving up the foods you love for good; instead, it teaches you how to eat in a way that supports your hunger and fullness cues, helping you feel satisfied with healthy meals and snacks.

 

The key idea behind intuitive eating is that we can trust our bodies to know what they need—and when they need it. The concept has been around since the early 20th century (when it was called "natural hygiene"), but received renewed attention when researchers at Tufts University published a study in 1995 showing that people who eat more intuitively tend to be leaner than those who restrict their food intake.

These popular programs are restrictive and may only last for a few weeks or months before you are back where you started—only now with a bad taste in your mouth from all the
