Frequently Asked Questions

How is orthorexia different from healthy eating?

Healthy eating improves your life, energy, and joy. Orthorexia destroys your mental peace, causes panic over cooking oils, leads to nutrient deficiencies, and isolates you from social gatherings.

How do I start recovering from clean eating obsession?

Practice food neutrality by uncoupling morality from ingredients, challenge detox myths, and systematically reintroduce one 'imperfect' food with loved ones each week.
