Episode 11 of the Hello Body! podcast with your hosts Melissa and Katy. In this episode, we interview Sumner Brooks and Amee Severson. Both are registered dietitians who practice a weight-neutral, Health at Every Size® approach to intuitive eating and nutrition — and they recently joined forces to write the book entitled How to Raise an Intuitive Eater. Naturally, we peppered them with questions related to the struggles we’ve faced feeding our kids with a gentle nutrition approach while also existing in a fatphobic world that views our children’s health in terms of their body size. We also talk about how their upcoming book works with Ellen Satter principles and also how it departs from her work. We address some of the socioeconomic issues around nutrition, including access to food, and also address food rules with neurodivergent kids and the ongoing hysteria around sugar and children. Enjoy! Sumner is a registered dietitian and eating disorder specialist, and the founder of EDRDpro, the international online training platform for eating disorder dietitians and health professionals. You can also find Sumner on Instagram @intuitiveeatingrd. Amee is a registered dietitian whose work focuses on body positivity, fat acceptance, and intuitive eating through a social justice lens. Find Amee at Prosper Nutrition and Wellness, and on Instagram @amee_rd. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
