Intuitive Eating is core component of the Non-Diet Approach and an incredible tool to help us mend our relationship with food. Essentially we are tuning in to our intuition with regards to food. We respond freely to internal cues of hunger and fullness without criticism or judgement, but with a greater sense of awareness and unconditional permission to eat. We might start by asking ourselves questions like “How hungry am I?”, “How full am I?”, “What is going on for me in this moment that is impacting the way I’m interacting with this food?”

Sugar serves as an efficient source of energy fuelling all cells in the body, including cancer cells. Cancer cells are hungry because they divide rapidly, and they will consume anything and everything. It’s important to focus on making sure the healthy cells in the body are properly fuelled to ensure they are well enough to combat cancer, to withstand cancer treatments and to promote recovery.
