Don't panic!
The good news right off the bat is that eating is allowed. It's even allowed to be fun. And it's amazingly easy to do: open your mouth, put the food in, swallow - your digestion will do the rest.
<"In the past, we ate what the field outside our front door had to offer. Today, the whole world is available in the supermarket - at any time, ready to cook and vacuum-packed, Patric Heizmann outlines our daily luxury.
With "Eating allowed!Patric Heizmann puts the megaphone into the hand of the inner voice, and he gives his audience the translation help - a real life one, of course: He illustrates the basics and functions of the body, lets the organs communicate with each other like speech bubbles and dedicates himself to the eternal struggle between head and stomach, known to every human being from painful experience.
It's as much about the real and perceived differences in the needs of men, women and children as it is about the connections between diet and exercise. And in addition to the quiet inner life, Patric Heizmann also takes parallel aim at the many, loud disturbing noises of the outside world: from advertising pressure to designer food - Patric Heizmann bites his way through trends, substitute religions and other social developments and chews through them for any incompatibilities, occasional demystification included.
It's a confusing tangle Patric Heizmann has taken on. And he untangles it in his very own way: pictorially, without blinkers, with profound expert knowledge, but above all full of humour. "I want readers and viewers to enjoy following me to the end, so that they can take something away with them. Above all, understanding for oneself, for one's own body and the inner voice - in order to be able to translate correctly at the end: What does she really want when she's just screaming at the top of her voice for chips and coke."
