- Mental Health
Do you see certain foods as good and others as bad? Do you feel guilty after having a slice of cake, or perhaps see yourself as a 'failure' after consuming something you consider 'unhealthy'? If you said yes to any of the following questions, then please know that you are not alone and that you are probably under the control of a plethora of food rules!
In this episode, Talia Cecchele and I share a discussion on what a food rule is, how food rules maintain disordered eating and eating disorders, and how you can begin to overcome them. More importantly, we will be debunking some common food rules that have become the unquestioned 'truth' in the diet culture we live in.
A snippet of the topics we cover in this episode:
- What is a food rule?
- Where do food rules come from?
- What is the difference between a food rule and food preference?
- How you can start to challenge and break the food rules that are affecting your quality of life
- How food rules negatively impact your connection with others, especially in the context of social eating
- Debunking a list of common food rules, for example:
➾ Carbohydrates (such as rice, pasta, and bread) are bad and should be avoided at all cost
- Why carbohydrates are essential for our overall health and wellbeing.
- Is white bread better than brown bread?
➾ Eating fat will make me fat
- Why low fat is not the healthiest option
- Why do we need fats in our diet?
➾ Not allowing yourself to have foods that contain sugar (such as ice cream and baked goods) because you see them as 'bad'
➾ Not allowing yourself to have snacks due to the fear that it will cause you to put on weight rapidly
- How having regular snacks can help regulate your hunger and fullness cues.
- What are soul foods?
And more!
