Holistic and informative

What I loved about this book is it was great knowledge in general because there is helpful information about food. I have PCOS and I’ve had a harder time finding resources so appreciated targeted knowledge about what helps and what doesn’t. I’ve seen doctors and dieticians in the past who made blanket statements like lose weight or be on restrictive diets. What I loved about this book is it focuses on the health of food in their respective categories, and what to avoid, so I have a better understanding of that now without focusing on a scale or restrictions. I’ve loved using this book in tandem with my dietician because I can ask informed, specific questions. Before listening to this (I used the audio book), I was frustrated with how much research I’ve done and how little I knew how food works but this book along with my dietician has helped me reposition into lifestyle changes rather than restrictive changes, which can be hard at first but I believe more sustainable in the long run. I feel like I have tangible goals now instead of guessing what to do so I appreciated the clarity this book provided.
