5: Orthorexia: What is it? Can we fully recover and still eat “clean”?
Welcome back to Wholistically, You Podcast! This week we get into the topic of Orthorexia. This is a topic that is on the rise in the health world, and we go into detail in describing it and naming some signs and symptoms. This lead to the subject of recovery, and discusses going *all-in* in recovering vs. holding on to those “rules” around food. This topic is LOADED but I made this episode quick, informative, and there’s room for discussion after you listen.
Or, listen on Spotify or Apple Podcasts here!
In this episode, we discuss:
- What even is orthorexia?
- What the signs/symtoms are
- Health is MORE than just food and exercise
- Food “morality”
- Good food vs. bad food?
- Why I create “healthy” recipes
- Clean food vs. full recovery
- What really is health?
- The diet industry
- ‘Want vs. should want’ mindset
- The fine line of recovery
- How to push the boundaries
