Dr. Kashey believes that increasing your food’s variety can help push your food satisfaction and contentment up while keeping your cravings and eating impulses low. More options also improve the likelihood of eating the right things while simultaneously decreasing the risks associated with eating the wrong things. After all, too much of one thing is bad for you. Variety builds on this Balance and finds itself to be the fourth step in Dr. Kashey’s Hierarchy of Constructive Eating, and it has a lot to do with identifying and addressing your food acceptance issues rather than hyper-focusing on your desired results. Dr. Kashey reminds us that the best way to approach achieving food variety is not by force but by following the Hierarchy step by step, crafting a rational armor to protect ourselves from “health tyrants”, and by cultivating continuous and neutral exposures to new food. Keeping these lessons in mind, food variety and even a thoroughly improved eating competence can be attained, as Dr. Kashey puts it, “automagically”.
