Orthorexia is basically the extreme version of being healthy where people feel an obligation to eat by a strict set of rules when in reality I believe that the healthiest course of action is to abide by the old saying “everything in moderation.” For example, while eating cake isn’t seen as being healthy and certainly would never be recommended as a staple for any diet, it is something that many people enjoy and so having it every once in a while as a treat shouldn’t make anyone feel guilty.
