What's the problem with calories on restaurant menus?
The new rules are taking away the joy of going out for a meal for some people with eating disorders.

摂食障害治療中で、カロリー表示が気になって食事が楽しめない人も居るんだよ!という記事。効果的なアドバイスは特になしw
私は外食でカロリーは見ないなぁ。外食機会が少ないから逆にここぞとばかりに高カロリー食選ぶわw

compulsory

意味 (比較なし)〈事· 物が〉(法律· 制度により) 義務的な, 強制的な ; 〈法律などが〉強制力のある

Going out for a meal is meant to be an enjoyable experience, something you do as a treat or for a special occasion.
But with calories on menus now compulsory in England, the joy is being taken away for some people with eating disorders.

日本だとほぼ全食品に記載されてるよね。最近は糖質脂質オフ表示のが優先されてる感あるけど。

anorexia

意味 [U] [医] 拒食症, 神経性食欲不振症 (anorexia nervosa ) ; 食欲不振.

But Isabella says going out for meals was an important step in helping her recover from anorexia, and this change could cause setbacks.

でもカロリー表示がないメニューはそもそも選ばないんでしょ?難しいなあ。

bulimia

意味 [U] [医] 過食 (症) (bulimia nervosa ).

Prof Ranote adds that calories on menus can be incredibly triggering for people with both anorexia and bulimia, who may search for lower calorie foods, but on the flipside could lead to people with binge eating disorder finding higher calorie items “to trigger guilt and shame”.

hinder

意味 〈発展など〉を妨げる; 〈動きなど〉を妨害する, じゃまする

“It could hinder some of the work we do in the prevention of eating disorders, because the focus becomes about numbers. Calories don’t teach good nutrition or what’s a good balanced diet, or a healthy relationship with food.”

fixation

意味 <人· 物への> 執着, 固執 <with, about, on>

“It can create a fixation on restricting calories for those with anorexia or bulimia, or increase feelings of guilt for those with binge eating disorder.”

うーん…まだ治療が必要だねって話なのではw
カロリー表示を見て「本当に食べたいものを選べる」人自体が現代は少数派だろうし、だからってその全員が摂食障害なわけじゃないし。
