What is intuitive eating?

Об эпизоде

An IPSOS study from late 2020 found that 45% of people across the world were trying to lose weight at the time. In many cases, losing weight is beneficial for health, but a lot of the time, people want to achieve unrealistic body images which are projected by the media as being ideal. Of course, a popular way of doing so is by dieting, but the subject of today’s episode is pretty much the opposite of a traditional diet. Advocates of intuitive eating say that not only are diets not necessarily effective, but they also promote a complex and sometimes unhealthy relationship with food. That’s particularly true when it comes to extreme diets, like the Paleo diet or a juice diet.  Where does the term come from? Isn't it normal to eat when hungry?
