Obsessive Foodies Are Sick
“Orthorexia boils down to someone who is very, very concerned with eating what they consider the perfect diet. This is someone who takes healthy eating to an extreme and feels good about it. These people often have a sense of moral superiority.”
— Clinical psychologist Joy Jacobs describes orthorexia, a dangerous strain of behavior which “can wreak serious damage on the health of someone trapped in the obsession.” So I guess my not giving a shit about what I put into my body makes me healthy? I’m off for a plate of mozzarella sticks then!
