Confessions of a Diet Obsessive

About this book

Why do diets so often begin with enthusiastic tracking and end in guilt beside the refrigerator? Sherif Helmy examines the uneasy territory between nutritional science and everyday behavior, reviewing fifty diet systems that have shaped public conversation and social media. He looks beyond their marketing to the psychological and ideological forces behind recurring trends, extreme restriction, and the modern obsession with thinness. Confessions of a Diet Obsessive offers no seven-day miracle. Instead, it encourages readers to replace commercial myths and programmed deprivation with informed choices suited to their bodies, habits, and long-term health.
