Summary:
When it comes to nutrition and health, everyone is an expert. Unfortunately for us, most of the information shared is either misleading or wrong. Psychologist Traci Mann of the University of Minnesota teams up with nutritional experts to study issues such as self-control and dieting. She challenges the assumptions that have caused so much misery in our society (from “fat shaming” to the idea that diets work), and highlights a saner, more practical path toward healthy eating and living – one that highlights our strengths and incorporates Mindfulness. This is one of the most helpful, hopeful and inspiring books I’ve read on the topic of wellness.
