What I wish weight loss providers understood: An ex-dietician's journey from a diet to anti-diet approach to wellness

Traditional medical and dietetic rhetoric around the relationship between food, weight, and health emphasizes correlations between BMI range and medical conditions. However, it often fails to consider how these correlations are interpreted and how they subsequently impact individual patients and society. In this episode, Laura Cohen shares her personal journey as a former registered dietitian trained in a weight-centric environment and parent of a loved one with an eating disorder who was harmed by many of the messages she was taught would promote health and well-being.
Laura serves as a lead family mentor with Equip, which provides evidence-based care for eating disorders. She is also a board member of F.E.A.S.T, an organization that supports families of people affected by eating disorders. Laura is also an eating disorder recovery coach and shares insights on her website, https://noweighway.com/.
