Quite honestly I've had my eyes opened. Good nutritionists aren't that hard to find and their expertise involves not just "persistent problems with food", but can also help you to avoid diets that cause health problems in the long-term. Even more amazing to me is that those health problems can be controlled through foods. The nutritionist can go through your family history and help you to understand your relationship with food and how it affects you - now and into the future.

"Though anyone who tells that you should eat more fruits and vegetables is almost certainly right."

That I can agree with. I should have also mentioned Michael Pollan's books. His most recent is an analysis of what to eat - and the subtitle says it all: Eat food^. Not too much. Mostly plants.

^whole, unprocessed.
