Welcome to Season 1 of the Beyond The Food PRO podcast series.   This 8-part podcast series is created to educate female health professionals on a non-diet approach to food, weight, and health.  In today’s episode, we discuss how we may be causing harm to our clients and patients by delivering nutrition services. By following a traditional model of nutrition and health care for women we may be aggravating an underlying condition and symptoms.   In this episode, I share my patient Caroline (fictitious name) story along with how she changed my practice forever.   Caroline had a disordered relationship with food due to years of chronic dieting.
