Ellyn Satter

    Ellyn Satter writes not only about food, eating, and feeding, but about emotional health and positive family relationships. Satter shares her conviction that you and your family are more important than your diet, giving her blessings to all food and to you for eating it. Her research confirms that your positive feelings about food and eating—and those of your children—do more for nutritional, medical, and emotional health than adhering to a set of rules about what to eat and not to eat. Satter is an internationally recognized authority on eating and feeding, exploring the connections between food, family dynamics, and overall well-being.
