1. Realize that there is no good and no bad food. There is nutritionally valuable and nutritionally less valuable. Yes, you benefit your health if you prefer the first group. But trust your organism, it is much wiser than you think. When you treat yourself to something explicitly unhealthy once in a while, it can deal with it very cleverly. Without any external help, for example detox.
2. Phrase "positive thinking" is starting to be hackneyed recently, but here it can really help: don't focus on unhealthy aspects of unhealthy food, but on healthy aspects of healthy food.
3. If your whole life is about healthy eating, take a break from it. Limit reading blogs, visiting social networks and conversations about this topic.
4. Find some hobby not related to food. You should enjoy it, it shouldn't be forced, at same time it should provide you with feelings of joy.
5. Try to realize that your value does not depend on what is on your plate. Start a diary in which you thank yourself for something every day. It can be anything, for example that despite fatigue you managed to walk to work. Also take care of yourself by rewarding and not punishing, for example when you have anxiety, instead of anger against yourself rather take warm bath.
6. If you feel that this problem is already obsession for you and/or because of it you neglect your social relationships, read something about orthorexia. And ideally, turn to psychologist.
