My cooking still stays true to my Italian roots, with lots of delicious, fresh ingredients. Giada De Laurentiis: Many people think there needs to be a drastic change in order to eat healthily, but that’s not true. The key to eating better to feel better is to listen to your body and make adjustments accordingly. Everyone is different, so what might work for one person may not work for another. It’s all about taking it slow and really listening to your body to discover what is best for you. On the other hand, I can eat a bunch of bitter broccoli rabe without batting an eyelash.

For example, I have a friend who could eat a raw kale salad every day, but raw kale doesn’t agree with me. It’s all about the small adjustments that work for you. To figure this out, I include a three-day reboot, which helps the body heal itself, and then I suggest slowly incorporating more ingredients back into your diet, but in a mindful way. In the book, I tell people to eat the foods that love you back.
