Are some foods bad and others good? Do weight loss efforts lead to eating disorders? Should high weight be treated or even discussed at all? What does it mean to be "healthy?" The New Food Fight addresses these timely and provocative questions, provides science-based evidence in response to differing viewpoints, and ultimately aims to find common ground to unify the increasingly polarized worlds of eating disorders and weight management.
Eat this, not that. Enjoy all foods in moderation. Love yourself. Lose weight. These are just a few of the contradictory messages many of us face every day. No wonder we've never felt more confused about what to eat, how our bodies "should" look, and what it means to be "healthy."
Through personal narratives, clinical examples, extant research, as well as expert and stakeholder insights, The New Food Fight offers an incisive guide to the complex and increasingly polarized fields of eating disorders and weight management. Written with both expertise and empathy, the authors unpack common myths, address misinformation, and provide compelling recommendations to unite two fields that, as it turns out, may be more alike than they are different.
A must-read for anyone who has grappled with body image concerns, deliberated over what to eat, or found themselves torn between self-acceptance and wanting to change their body.
