Understanding the Connection Between Food and Alcohol Consumption In this episode of ShameOver, we dive into the intricate relationship between food and alcohol consumption. Many people find that when they cut down on alcohol, they inadvertently increase their intake of food, social media, or spending.
We will talk about Christy Harrison's book, 'The Anti-Diet,' which sheds light on how diet culture influences our consumption patterns and suggests that these ideas can also apply to alcohol and other habits. Important concepts such as the black or white mentality, overconsumption, and the impact of diet culture are discussed, along with the importance of intuitive consumption.
Stay tuned for part two, which will cover strategies for managing emotional eating and drinking.
