FreeDiet Culture Be Gone: Emma Beckett in Conversation
Newcastle-based food and nutrition scientist Emma Beckett has spent more than 15 years studying food and how it interacts with our bodies. Her new book, You Are More Than What You Eat, is part-manual, part-memoir, part-manifesto, packed full of sassy and straightforward advice that puts diet culture to shame. Join Emma in conversation with Dan Cox about how to ditch the guilt, embrace our unique selves, and heal our relationship with food.
This event is free; no bookings required.
