Are you always trying to eat perfectly healthy?

As a dietitian, I've watched the pursuit of perfect health become an all-consuming battle for many. Myself included.

In today's episode, we dive into orthorexia nervosa, the thin line between healthy eating and an extreme fixation on so-called 'clean' eating.

We'll explore how the pursuit of eating perfectly can lead to nutritional deficiencies, social isolation, and worsen our mental health. And discuss the importance of support, understanding our relationship with food, and the journey back to enjoying life - beyond what's on our plates.

But recognising the problem is the first step to healing. So, let's get into it.

If you think you may be struggling with orthorexia, please speak to your GP, or get more support at The Butterfly Foundation.
