Le site haescommunity.org est-il sûr ?

It's good to see positive alternatives to the diet industry's multi-million dollar scheme to profit off of the unhappiness of bullied and abused people. Weight does not determine health. If it did, thin people would never suffer from "fatty" problems like heart disease or diabetes. Just because "everybody knows" something, doesn't make it right. Remember, at one time, "everybody knew" the world was flat...

This site is a supportive community encouraging the adoption of healthy behaviours such as joyful exercise and intuitive eating for health's sake rather than focusing on weight. This approach is more effective than shame at promoting health in those who "fail" at diets or "can't lose weight" as they will continue healthy eating and exercising in HAES even if they do not lose weight. The site also tries to counteract well documented fatphobia and weight bias in society and the medical profession that leads to inadequate care for patients of size. This is done in part by connecting users to health professionals, therapists, personal trainers, etc, who will partner with their patients/clients to build healthy habits and improve health outcomes without shaming or ignoring them based on whether they've gained or lost weight.

A site that promote unhealthy lifestyles by suggesting that being fat and obese is healthy. Completely contrary to the scientific community's research and observations. This site is effectively trying to say that (for analogy sake) jumping off a 20 storey building is healthy, albeit over-eating and obesity is just a slow form of suicide.

Promoting HAES in the face of overwelming scientific evidence is not only unethical but immoral. Highly damaging ideology with increased risk of death in following the "facts" on this site. Highly damaging for children.

Misleading and false information regarding what is healthy. This site tries to push an agenda that says obesity AND morbid obesity is acceptable and healthy; it acts as an echo chamber for the obese and in turn sort of "recruits" young, insecure and impressionable over weight women who are afraid to face their poor choices. It does nothing to encourage healthier lifestyles in communities and whether it is intentional or not, it further excacerbates the current obesity epidemic.

The information on this site regarding weight and health goes directly against accepted standards of the CDC and NIH. Visitors who are tricked into believing this information could develop serious health issues and some may result in death. The seriousness of the consequences that may occur by this misinformation cannot be understated. It is the modern day equivalent of "pro tobacco" advertising.

This website makes up claims that being extremely fat and obese are healthy ways to live, and that being "Healthy At Any Size" is true despite overwhelming quantities of scientific evidence that being overweight is unhealthy. They also hate and discriminate against skinny people and often try to bodyshame skinny people, despite their entire basis of HAES being "healthy at ANY size". In their minds I guess ANY size actually means ANY OVERWEIGHT size... Do not trust this website and do not encourage their idiocy.

This website tries to claim that no matter whatever size you are, you are healthy. This is untrue and scientific experiments upon scientific experiments have proved it to be untrue. This type of thinking is not only stupid but also harmful. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but health is not an opinion."

Health at every size is simply not true. When did we start believing health is not determined by the amount of fat one person has in their body. The fact of the matter is obese or morbidly obese people are prone to several more health problems than lean healthy people. There is no health at every size. Please don't let people promote these ridiculous claims because it is enabling people to encourage obesity.
