Thanks Mark! havent read the book personally but Im wondering if anywhere in the book it actually recommends going to see a really good nutritionist? Everyones body is different and we all process food in different ways. Psychologically i would agree with trying to release yourself of any emotional guilt associated with eating. But physically I would say you first need to know what your body takes in or rejects. Understand how the things you eat are affecting your mood from hour to hour, day to day. Experiment a lot with different kinds of foods and really observe how your body and mind respond to those foods. And above all do not take any generalized food pyramid approach to eating as those “charts” are all a form of marketing.. they are not health guidelines in the pure sense. The statement about eating carbs to get your energy - for me anyway, is one of those blanket kind of statements backed up by the normal idea that our bodies only derive energy from carbs. Otherwise thank you for doing this newsletter and continuing to open peoples eyes to really good swath of books 📚 🫶🏼
