The distinction between a diet that looks complete on paper and one that actually nourishes the body is one of the most important conversations being had right now.
But the part that stopped me completely was compensation. The body covering the gap so well that depletion becomes the baseline.
I have seen this in women around me for years and never had the language for it until this series.
What you are building here is something I keep coming back to.
That compensation piece feels so important. I think so many women have been functioning for years with a body that is constantly covering the gap, until depletion starts to feel normal.
I’m so glad this series is helping give language to something you’ve seen and felt for a long time. 🤍
So much wonderful information in this newest article, Gabrielle. Your series on Substack BrainBodyRewired is truly remarkable. Ps I love your e-cookbook with so many practical recipes which illustrate how easy it can be to make steady improvements to your diet. Bravo yet again!
Thank you very much! Glad you’re enjoying it and finding it informative. I wanted it to feel practical, grounded, and actually usable, not like another overwhelming nutrition lecture.
And I’m happy you’re enjoying the cookbook too! That was really the heart behind it: simple meals that make steady nourishment feel more doable in everyday life. 🤍
