Summary
How much you need to eat depends on a variety of factors including how active you are, how tall you are, your body build, and whether or not you are male or female.
Intuitive eating offers a framework and strategies for getting in touch with your body’s sense of hunger and fullness and really enjoying what you eat.
It’s essentially that you respect and care for your body and your mind by attending to what and how much you eat without viewing food as a source of stress.
