Critics Review
Praise for Food: the Good Girl’s Drug
“Sunny Sea Gold is one of the best and most compassionate educators about women’s health issues out there. She is especially strong on the emotional underpinnings of health conditions such as eating disorders and obsessive thinking about body image that have deep roots in a gender context.”—Naomi Wolf, author of the New York Times bestsellers The Beauty Myth, The End of America and Give Me Liberty
“Filled with actionable tools, rich insight, and expert knowledge.”—Johanna Kandel, Executive Director of The Alliance of Eating Disorders
“Sharing deeply personal stories of hope and recovery from the prison of problematic relationships with food, eating and exercise, Sunny Gold and the brave women who with her offer their insights contribute to a comprehensive survey of the topic in a manner that is remarkably, if you will….easily digestible.”—Dr. Drew Pinsky, M.D.
