In Harmony with Food. Basics of Nutrition from Evidence-Based Dietitian

Food is more than just a source of energy. Too strict dietary restrictions can take away the pleasure we derive from eating, while unhealthy quantities can lead to serious problems. So, where is the balance? Instead of categorizing food as 'bad' and 'good', dietitian Alexander Burlakov suggests looking at the diet from the perspective of evidence-based medicine and science. In the book "In Harmony with Food", he objectively examines the main aspects of nutrition: calorie content, water consumption norms, healthy and unhealthy foods, the impact of genetics and hormones on obesity, eating disorders, and much more. He also explains how popular diets work and what is wrong with them. This is not an author's method for weight loss, but an overview of the knowledge about nutrition that is available in modern evidence-based science. With Dr. Burlakov's book, you will understand what is needed for a harmonious and healthy relationship with food. You will learn how your body works, get rid of restrictions on certain foods, and the feelings of guilt for allowing yourself something delicious.
