Food for Thought

"Eat to Love" by Jenna Hollstein is a new type of book about health and food.  This one does not focus on weight loss rather than a healthy relationship with food.  She focuses on how women should relate to the food both in a physical and mental capacity.  She also brings to mind how women's bodies and their reality to fit into our society by pointing out what is ridiculous and what should be embraced.  The wants and desires of men and society (men) cause a lot of damage both emotionally and physically to women and how they relate to the food they need to survive.  I noticed on Amazon a 1 star rating due to political stand point and I admit, Hollenstein does bring up some politically charged statements that are unnecessary, but they are few and far between and don't cause too much distraction.  Whether you agree with her views or not, it shouldn't interfere with the reading.  For the most part she hits the nail on the head with feminine views and how we should let some of this crap go and do what we need to feel comfortable, healthy, and happy.  Can't go wrong with that.
