March is nutrition month! And, this year’s theme is to take the fight out of food. I think this is probably THE best topic we have had for nutrition month because there has been no time like the present, where so many people are struggling with their food decisions.
Do you ever get frustrated by food and nutrition? Maybe you can’t figure out why you feel bloated after eating certain foods or are unsure about which foods are best for a particular health condition. These “food fights” represent times when you struggle with yourself or others about what to eat.
When all you want to do is get control of your digestion and how you feel, it is completely understandable that you would be willing to try absolutely anything to feel better. Being a dietitian living with celiac disease, I have personally experienced the “fight with food” when it comes to my own food choices and every single one of my clients has also experienced the “fight with food too.” I really do get it. Trust me, I do.
Eating should be joyful, not a source of frustration and confusion. Do any of these comments or situations sound familiar?
