Why read it?

2 authors picked Anti-Diet as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love this book and couldn’t put it down once I began it. It validated everything I believe about the dangers of diet culture and how it robs you of the joy of eating and the freedom to trust your inner wisdom. Christy offers scientific facts and psychological understanding to support her theories and help her readers release themselves from the prison of dieting. 

Christy Harrison, host of one of my favorite podcasts Food Psych, explores the history of diet culture and the multi-billion dollar diet and beauty industries that profit from it. She clearly lays out all the ways in which diet culture robs us of our time, money, health, and happiness. You’ll learn how to recognize all the sneaky forms of diet culture – including all the ways in which it now infiltrates the health and wellness world. Backed by strong scientific research and filled with stories from people who’ve reclaimed their bodies, minds, and lives. 

From Alissa's list on non-diets.
