The Minefield of Nutrition
The health and nutrition landscape can be likened to a minefield, especially for women who often struggle with relationships with their bodies. Many women are influenced by generational beliefs and negative language regarding food and body image from a young age, leading to harmful eating behaviors and disordered patterns. This often results in physical and mental health issues, as they internalize the idea that their bodies are at odds with them. Addressing these deeply rooted beliefs is crucial for initiating healing and restoring a positive relationship with food.
