Women & Food - Tabitha Hume

Why do so many women experience a love/hate relationship with food? How does the relaxed hostess, provider, mother and career women juggle these roles with the relentless pressure from society to have the perfect body?

It is little wonder that many women feel themselves losing control of their weight and their lives. Supposed aid from the billion-dollar diet industry does more than drian the pockets: it also drains the mental health of countless women, who find themselves drawn into a vicious spiral of starvation and increasing weight gain.

Here is a book that explodes the myths, once and for all, and reveals the shocking connection between calorie cutting and clinical depression.

In Women and Food, the latest dietetic research is backed up by irrefutable psychiatric evidence that will banish, forever, the guilt and anguish of the serial dieter.
