Intuitive Eating Series, Principle 4. Christyna Johnson, MS RD, host of “Intuitive Eating for the Culture” podcast, joins us to talk about how to challenge, and fire, your inner Food Police. It’s a important step in getting back to eating intuitively, akin to the diet mentality. 

Who are these “Food Police”? In the Intuitive Eating book, the Food Police are thoughts that control and manipulate our food choices, often (if not always) overriding our intuition and interoceptive awareness. Essentially, they rob us of autonomy around food, and police our every meal and morsel. 

So, let’s get to firing those Food Police.
