Summary

Have you ever considered there is a connection between ADHD and disordered eating? As someone with ADHD, do you want to have a better relationship with food to stop dieting, stop binging, and be happier and less stressed about food and body image? If your answer is yes to any or all of the above, this insightful episode is for you. I'm so excited for you to hear this interview with Nicole Demasi Malcher. After receiving a late ADHD diagnosis at the age of 33 and struggling with food issues for most of her life, her ten years of experience as a dietitian and certified diabetes educator helped her uncover the deep connection between ADHD and disordered eating. She has since dedicated her career to assisting ADHDers in healing their relationship with food and their bodies. "… there are so many reasons we struggle with eating with ADHD. I mean, we have issues with impulsivity, low dopamine. We have poor time management, time blindness, and interoceptive awareness, we get overwhelmed and have emotional dysregulation and sensory issues, all of which affect our eating." - Nicole Demsai Malcher Highlights from today's discussion: What are intuitive eating and its advantages for someone with ADHD (5:20) Nicole shares her struggles with food and body image (8:18) Having ADHD and why it's common to struggle with eating (13:57) The need for self-care (17:23) Restrictive eating and using food to cope (19:31) Dieting is the most significant predictor of weight gain, and BMI is a lie (24:19) Intuitive eating and the fear of relinquishing control (30:06) How to ease into intuitive eating (35:45) Nicole's pregnancy and her relationship with food (39:53) The misconceptions of what intuitive eating is (46:48) Did you find this episode insightful?
