Part of the journey towards recovery from a restrictive eating disorder is overcoming food fears. An individual affected by an eating disorder often views food from a distorted lens (the eating disorder lens) which labels foods as ‘good’ or ‘bad. An individual affected by an eating disorder may have a long list of foods that they feel fearful of eating. Facing food fears is an incredibly important part of recovery because it supports the individual to begin to normalize their relationship with food.
