Aesthetic pressure and fatphobia are conditioning our relationship with food, and this leads to an increase in body dissatisfaction, a decrease in self-esteem, an increased likelihood of suffering from eating disorders, not to mention that it promotes unnecessary cosmetic surgeries and touch-ups and makes bodies that do not meet standards invisible. All situations that provoke self-censorship and generate constant comparisons and lead many people to forget the need to maintain a healthy relationship with food. Based on this premise, pharmacist and dietitian-nutritionist Julia Palacios, specialized in eating behavior, has poured all her knowledge into the book Mucho más que pechuga y lechuga (Bruguera) with the aim of offering a new perspective on the relationship we have with food. A book that talks about fatphobia, biology, privilege, pleasure, and guilt, but above all about the importance of context and other topics not commonly found in a nutrition book. "I would love for people to let go of guilt while reading the book. I would also like us to accept that body diversity exists and that it is beautiful that it exists. And that we learn to reclaim pleasure. Women have been denied pleasure in many aspects of our lives, not just in food. And I think it's revolutionary to verbalize it, right? 'I like this,' 'I prefer this,' to also have a voice and a vote in the matter of food," explains the author.

We read in the ARA A report from a listener (who was unaware of the existence of this figure or entity) on the expenses of Catalan parliamentary groups during 2024 "is stirring up controversy again."

One of parliamentary parties' commitments this term was to reform MPs' salaries so that allowances they receive for travel according to where they live –whether they justify them or not– are taxed, since they are currently exempt from personal income tax. The case of Parliamentary bureau members is even more controversial, since they receive travel allowances despite having an official car at their disposal. In the case of the Speaker, it is at their disposal every day. ARA made a freedom of information request on January 28 –the data, therefore, is from this date– to know what trips the current bureau members have made with an official vehicle and the compensation they have also received for travel. We also asked for this data on the last two parliaments.
