Description - Diet and Your Emotions by Joan Esherick
Food is a basic life necessity. It's also one of life's most basic pleasures. Most of us don't just eat because we're hungry. We eat because we're sad, happy, bored, anxious, lonely, excited, celebrating, and for thousands of other reasons. As wonderful as food can be, many Americans have a troubled relationship with food. They use it to feed their emotions, and this can be dangerous to their health. In America today, obesity, the state of being very overweight, is a national crisis, and this crisis is affecting young people like never before. One out of every six people between the ages of six and nineteen is overweight with an additional one out of six in danger of becoming overweight. Overweight and obesity pose serious health risks, and some experts fear that unless we curb this trend, young people today will have a lower life expectancy than their parents' generation. If you're an emotional eater, you are not alone. This book will help you understand why people form certain relationships with food and what the consequences can be.
Along the way, you will learn what your body really needs to be healthy and how to reevaluate food's role in your own life to achieve nutritional and emotional balance.
