Food for anorexic foods?


Question:
I have a young family member who is currently getting over anorexia. She still has the habit of looking @ labels and food contents before eating. Are there any suggestions of foods with good nutritional value that would be good for her to eat?

Answers:
Part of her recovery should include being presented with a plate of prepared food. No labels, no charts. Let her retain some control over what's going into her body but on a broader level. Let her pick what she wants to eat and how it's prepared to some extent, but not exactly which things to buy.

Her understanding of the numbers on the labels are skewed at best and are used for anchoring her feelings of self hatred.
