Don't Salt My Game | With Laura Thomas, PhD

Join Registered Nutritionist Laura Thomas, PhD for conversations with game changers. Laura talks to people in wellness, foodies, bloggers, entrepreneurs from cool brands, creatives, nutritionists, doctors, body positivity people, mindfulness experts, and anyone else who is shaking up the wellness world, to find out how they stay on top of their game – and to help you do you, but better. It’s not all handstands and courgetti though - she and her guests aren’t afraid to dig deep into the darker side of wellness and WILL call BS on weird, faddy trends, that don’t have any legitimacy or scientific merit. Fresh pods every Friday. #dontsaltmygame

In this week’s episode, I’m talking to Vaughn Darst, a public health dietitian  specialising in paediatric and adolescent nutrition and eating disorders among under-served populations including trans and gender non-conforming youth, children on the autism spectrum and children with special healthcare needs.  We discuss:

✨  Growing up in a world that tells you your body is wrong
✨  Experiencing medical fat phobia
✨  How not being able to express gender identity led to an ED
✨  How common narratives around transitioning often lack nuance 
✨  Discussing the multifactorial aspects of health outside of weight 
✨  The research on disordered eating in GNC and trans people
✨  The complicated reasons that eating disorders develop in these groups 
✨  The unrealistic body image ideals placed on GNC and trans people
✨  Steps providers can take to provide gender affirming care

This episode is sponsored by Raising Intuitive Eaters, our online course for parents and carers who want to raise kids who have a healthy and happy relationship with food and their body.
