The Real Problem With “Clean Eating”

Many people come to Eat to Restore already eating “healthy.”

They’ve removed processed junk.
They buy organic.
They avoid obvious sugar.

And yet, they still feel unwell.

The issue isn’t always effort. It’s interpretation.

Food is more than calories or ingredients. It is a biological signal. Every meal influences energy production, immune activation, and inflammatory load.

A food can be labeled gluten-free, dairy-free, plant-based, or natural — and still activate stress pathways in the body.

Clean eating does not automatically mean compatible eating.

The book explores how modern food has changed faster than human biology has adapted. It explains why certain foods consistently keep the body in defense mode — even when marketed as healthy.

When people understand this distinction, their decisions become clearer. Less fear. Less confusion. More strategy.
