Synopsis

CAN HEALTHY EATING BECOME A DANGEROUS OBSESSION? ORTHOREXIA is an eating disorder that is hard to see. It's not about purging or cutting calories. But by excluding foods in pursuit of a clean or ideal diet, it can quickly turn into a compulsion - with serious consequences for mental and physical health. For the first time, dietician, nutritionist and eating disorder campaigner Renee McGregor reveals the true messages behind these dangerous diets. Packed with first-hand experiences and analysis, it provides the tools to guide sufferers back to a balanced, truly healthy way of eating.
