Food Therapy: Resources & Practical Guidance for Psychology Students

Question
Hi I am 3rd year psychology student. And our group is assigned to demonstrate food therapy. Do you have any suggestion or personal experience on how to do this? What kind of measures should we use to establish this? Thank You in Advance.

Answer
Hello,

1) For the starters, take a look at the following sources, you'll have better ideas what I mean suggesting a plan (see below):

2) I'd suggest something like this for your Food Therapy plan:

We are what we eat
  Eating for the body
  Eating for the mind
  Cooking as giving
  
Biology of eating
  Appetite
  Hunger
  Satiety
  Cravings

Mindful eating
