About this deal

Including more nutritious food rather than trying to exclude less nutritious items is going to both improve your health and benefit your relationship with food. In elk geval, Wolrich probeert het verband tussen gewicht en diabetes vervolgens (dit doet hij trouwens ook bij de link met kanker) toe te schrijven aan de negatieve effecten van gewichtsstigma en body shaming en de stress en discriminatie die hieruit volgen.

I would venture to guess that most people believe one or more of the myths in this book, based on the things I hear so many people in my life and online say, so it’s well worth a read. Enerzijds een welgekomen opfrissing, anderzijds voor mij een bevestiging dat de grote lijnen wel degelijk onderbouwd zijn.

After reading the book, along with education on my little bluebell course, I finally feel at peace with my body. It was so interesting to find out where some of the info has come from and how people came to the conclusions that they did about different foods / food groups.

De belangrijkste conclusies die hier genomen worden zijn de volgende: lichaamsgewicht is geen goede merker voor algemene gezondheid, voedsel mag je niet op dezelfde manier beschouwen als medicijnen, en op dieet gaan om af te vallen is onzin. It’s also laugh out loud funny at times and I really do love a non fiction book with a bit of humour! When Hippocrates may have suggested that food is medicine, most people who became sick with a serious ailment died.The ancient Greeks didn’t know what bacteria or viruses were and many people believed that diseases were punishments from the gods.

A couple of years ago I read ‘ Just Eat It’ by Laura Thomas – and it was interesting that she, and intuitive eating, are mentioned early on by Dr Joshua – and I was glad to cover the topic again.

Instead of freeing the reader from the chains of being treated by doctors, Wolrich tries to calm the low-self-esteem who blame themselves for being sick and weak. I've also been trying to repair my relationship with food after realizing I was suffering with Orthorexia. This is exactly what I didn’t find in Hooked by Michael Moss who was waving conspiracy around soda companies and saying that anyone who doesn’t eat freshly cooked fish and plant based is doing it wrong.Where evolution is not involved in the thinking of the origin of diseases and our bodies' adaptations to it, medicines may even sometimes have the reverse effect from our initial goal (try reading 'why we get sick? As a fellow healthcare professional I am in awe, and not only has this started me on a more positive journey but my reviews with patients are now resulting in so much more, pulling away from the rubbish BMI and more towards being healthy and feeling good.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Food Isn’t Medicine wades through nutritional science (both good and bad) to demystify the common diet myths that many of us believe without questioning. I was the girl diligently logging calories on my fitness pal and to that girl, I wish this book had been given to her! And though I wish it were true that food is medicine, Wolrich will show you why it isn’t, even if nourishing yourself well can support good health (but not always.The evidence that Dr Wolrich provides for his conclusions is unarguable and he has done a superb job of presenting it very strongly and clearly so it's understandable for a wide range of readers. I thought I'd found the answer after hating my body for years and having lost the weight doing the challenge to eat plant-based whole food. It's very easy to get sucked in to some of the food-fads, particularly when you don't know a lot yourself. I was unaware of his instagram presence before reading this book, so I came to this with no preconceptions. With so many competing and contradictory ideas being banded about it's nice to have someone explain it all in an unbiased neutral way.
