Natural eaters are the embodiment of the age-old nutrition tenets of variety, balance, and moderation. Natural eaters come in all shapes and sizes. Some are tall, lean, and lanky; others are round and soft; still others are muscular and solidly built. The common thread among natural eaters is that food is simply not an issue. They rarely think about food apart from designated meal and snack times and are able to eat a wide variety of foods—including so-called “junk foods”—without experiencing a moral dilemma. This often prompts their dieting acquaintances to remark “How can you finish that whole slice of cheesecake?! I’d feel so guilty!” or “How can you eat whatever you want and never gain an ounce?” or “What do you mean, ‘you don’t want a brownie right now’?”
Do you know people who seem to be natural eaters? Spend time with them, observe their behavior, and listen to their conversations. You won’t hear them talking about the latest, greatest fad diet or discussing the calorie, fat, or carbohydrate content of the foods being served as if that were the most fascinating topic of the day. Natural eaters have a knack for listening to their bodies, honoring what they know about nutrition, and respecting their own and others’ food preferences. Sound appealing? There’s a natural eater inside each and every person waiting to be discovered. Resolve here and now never to tread the dieting path again; life has so much more to offer!
