A movement of more and more young women rebel against carbon, quinoa and dietetic food, very indulgent cult eat clean and embrace Instagram. But it is his obsession with carbohydrates and calories as problematic?

During a visit to Australia earlier this year, celebrity chef Nigella Lawson denounced the food gently cleanse and other restrictive diets as unbalanced and unsustainable.
"I want to feel good," Mrs. Lawson Annabel Crabb said. "But I do not think that if you give up gluten and never again have a piece of cake ... I will have nothing to fear."
She continued: "I think [to eat their own obsession] at the base of the human Holy Grail, eternal life is simply the food in enjoy it, I think.".
But Ms. Lawson is not alone; People have increasingly allegedly tired of trends and cleanliness of food wellness, so that the images of the abdominal inspiration Paltrow Gwyneth, grass juice color and acai bowls decorated with flowers around the state to achieve I social media food love, but leaves many feeling fear and embarrassment, what is on your own plate.
In fact, there is a growing movement of young women who rebel against Instagram #Wellness: Instead of boasting about Yoga, quinoa and kale, bacon hamburger, the images, loaded with cheese fries and shakes publish covered extravagant.
This is a blatant middle finger to the judgment and the shame that indulgent food and a rejection of the stereotype surrounding that women should be beaten, and #eatingclean skolling not eat what they want.
For these young women rebel, pizza is not only fun, it is political.
Gluttony is back
For example, take a cookie-based company in Melbourne sweet Mickie, sending sugar obsessive quitters and health biscuits ice wit butter, "I Quit Kale", "no carbohydrates, no fun" "Greed is back" and "Kate Moss song ".
"At this stage, greed good [women] is a kind of well-being changed pleasure -., The new" cool "is," says 30-year-old creator Mickie sweet Emma ABC News Leader.
"I think women are very or eat healthy or unhealthy ... really no middle ground," Head of a Woman. "So there is a bit of a rebellion with girls in social networks is [] go, 'Hey, I eat pizza ... I'm a rebel, I'm fine, I eat carbohydrates."

The Freshmen15 slogan - "weight gain for a reason" - is an attempt to position the Kilo frequently during a first year of college (the "Freshman 15") to change as a cause for celebration, not acquired crash diet.
"We want people to go to university and not be afraid of the Freshman 15, but to experience it and embrace", one of six women young designers Freshmen15, Christina Aquilina, ABC News said.
"We gain weight because we have fun. We gain weight because we live life, because we have a college ... we do not count calories."
Yet another account Instagram, girl with gluten, publish photos of women who have their cake and "eat well."

With roots in popular culture, is snack wave mainly through exaggeration and extremism - "They do not just Pizza you have dedicated a blog to the collection of photos of celebrities eating pizza food." - But most importantly, it is also politics, a rejection of the idea that women should draw to clean food.
"The culture of healthy eating is often a thinly disguised form of the female body control," Mrs cills and Mrs Noone wrote.
"Somehow Snack Wave a protest against the idea.
"Snack Wave takes pleasure in the foods, the limits for women looking away at are who want slim and traditionally remain attractive."
We are obsessed with healthy eating?
Certainly, clean energy has been made responsible for the increase in disorder called orthorexia in Essen - a fixation on "eating right" or an unhealthy obsession with healthy food.
Although orthorexia is not recognized as a clinical diagnosis, experts warn that a serious impact on the mental and physical health can have: malnutrition, nutritional deficiencies, concern for the food, and the stress and fear of food.
"Some people have too obsessed [with a healthy diet]," says the nutritionist and the University of New South Wales Professor Dr. Rebecca Reynolds.
"The food is crazy ... there are more" demonization "of some foods and nutrients and idolatrous [other], often without the support of scientific knowledge."
During his preference Freshmen15 gluten and girls to achieve a better balance between "clean" power and "unclean" Dr. Reynolds admits he likes what they are trying to do.
Clean food and other diets are too restrictive "cultish in extreme and the obsession is involved with," she said.
In fact, while they have good intentions, calling it seems to healthy attitudes towards food and nutrition inadvertently encourage bloggers health.
In a 2014 study in the International Journal of Eating Disorders published, the University of Florida researchers conducted a content analysis of 21 healthy out "most popular blogs, all from women addressed to determine what type of information published.
After assessing the content and coding of blogs, the researchers found a high prevalence of news about the appearance (static images, beauty, self-objectification sets); Ideal occurrence of leanness (stigma thick, thin praise); and Food / Nutrition disorganized (not induced messages, alternative foods, dietary restriction), while in the type of information with very little "health."
Although the content is "not close the inflammatory nature of the pro-eating disorder sites," the researchers said, "could be problematic for viewers who have problems with body image or food."
Eating disorder recovery or another step?
Instead, Mrs Aquilina Freshmen15 said an important role in their own recovery played by an eating disorder, which found itself at the end of the first year in a treatment center for 3 months.
"[Freshmen15] it is a part of me that shows that [food] is not something to be ashamed of or to be afraid shows that when someone goes through this same thing, that there is a light at the end of the tunnel" she said.
"Life is short, it really is, and every day is just ridiculous for us on the basis of the amount of calories you want to eat or how many calories per meal [contains]."
Undoubtedly. But it can go from one extreme switch (obsessive healthy foods) to another (an obvious concern with hyper-fatty foods are shown) just so great to say a problem to be anorexia?
Is it me, or is there something strange about women who eagerly catalog Carby the images of his conquests? It is this "recovery" from an eating disorder, or in another context?
"We know with an eating disorder, a lot of it is" black and white "and" all or nothing "thinking - so if you [can] still expose this kind of thinking is a radical [symptoms] disorders food," says Professor Tracey Wade, the dean of Flinders University School of Psychology.
in recovery from eating disorders naturally "prove" people may want to have a problem, said Professor Wade ABC News, which is not necessarily problematic behavior.
"But again, you do not want to be caught in this ... be his main goal in life. They want ... to go to lunch for really passionate about other things in life than their own well ~~ POS = TRUNC, his career his education, living in a community, "he said.
"It is foolish to take pictures of our abs ever"
This is exactly how the British comedian Arabella young feeling of food, too.
Mrs Young, 28, skits own food ( "junk stylized zucchini") in his account Instagram Deliciously Stella where blank images of their chips and salsa or mock directly Nutella pot her 124,000 followers in stitches.
"[I wanted] to emphasize somehow silly pictures of our abs take all the time," said the younger woman ABC News.
"I think we were attacked [the welfare and cleanliness rhetoric food] Person holds a mirror to go" Actually, this is a little crazy "and ... maybe we should this question. If you really Gluten when celiac disease are? not really, there is no scientific evidence [do] that. "
But Instagram users - probably more women than men - swallow.
"I think women really in the fall" clean "and the language 'cheat'," said the younger woman "Women are really, I today morning sausage sandwich was Oooh, guilty, had a cake for a man ever want! ! - "would be:" day cheating I had a sausage sandwich ".
What could be more fun if it were not so inconvenient truth.
"A bit pompous sounds ... but what [I wish people Deliciously Stella do is] to take a little less seriously," he added.
"We are much faster congratulate [women] to be thin to be beautiful or what we want to be funny or clever or friendly.
"And these things that I believe are much more important."
