120 | How ‘Healthy Eating’ Messaging Backfires—And What to Say Instead
Manage episode 493504740 series 3529452
That “picky eater” might not grow out of it. And that patient obsessed with “clean eating”? It might be something deeper.
Today, we’re joined by eating disorder dietitian Johnna to challenge everything you thought you knew about disordered eating.
You’ll learn:
- The subtle red flags of disordered eating you might be overlooking during routine visits
- How to ask better questions to uncover what's really going on with your patient’s eating habits
- A crash course on ARFID—how it differs from picky eating and why it’s often misdiagnosed
- What eating disorder treatment actually looks like after the referral—and why full recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all
- How to reframe “healthy eating” in a way that helps instead of harms
- Where to find dietitians who specialize in eating disorders
If you’ve ever thought “something just feels off” with a patient’s nutrition or weight trajectory—this episode will give you the language, tools, and confidence to intervene earlier and refer smarter.
