Eating well should be easy. But so often it is not. How to Eat Well at Every Age provides practical tips based on psychological theory and evidence to enable people of every age to eat well and build a good relationship with food.

Eating well is key to how we interact with others, manage our emotions and our sense of wellbeing. The book describes how we can help others and ourselves to eat well across the lifespan, from good food parenting as our children are growing up, to eating well as an adult when the food environment can seem to be against us, to caring for the needs of people as they age. It describes how we learn what food we like and how our eating habits develop. It explores how parents can help their child eat well through good food parenting and the key pillars of being a good role model, saying the right things and managing their environment. It then covers how to eat well as an adult in terms of eating less to lose weight (without doing harm) or changing engrained habits to eat more healthily in general. Finally, it explores how eating well can be key to looking after ourselves or others as they age when living independently or in residential care.

This book is for anyone who wants a healthy relationship with food, for themselves or those they care for. It is also valuable reading for students studying child development, nutrition, dietetics, catering, physical health, social care, nursing and psychology.

'I?ve found this book by Jane Ogden incredibly insightful. She draws on years of experience and solid research to create an easy-to-read, genuinely accessible guide to eating well?whether you?re feeding a family, looking after your own health, or supporting older relatives. I loved how practical it is, with tips on what to say and do, and even some super-simple recipes that work in real life. It?s a brilliant resource, especially for those of us trying to stay well in a world that often pushes us in the opposite direction.'
