Culinary happiness
The downside of receiving dietary and nutritional counsel is the animosity it may generate due to restrictive or intrusive perception, however, Kalra, Joshi & Das (2021) suggest that this behavioral reaction can be modulated through the incorporation of happiness as part of the counseling process.
