Understanding Intuitive Eating vs. Dieting
Intuitive eating focuses on listening to your body's cues for hunger and fullness, allowing a wide variety of foods without guilt or fixation on good or bad labels. In contrast, constant dieting and restrictions trigger cravings, binge eating, and feelings of guilt and shame. The imbalance created by diets leads to emotional and physical consequences, such as increased risk of eating disorders and weight cycling. Intuitive eating aims for a healthier psychological attitude, lower BMI, and overall better well-being.
