It's always to decrease the power that food has on your life, because it is controlling their life and dictating how they feel about themselves, and food doesn't actually have that power.
Imagine having to confront your greatest challenge every single day. That's the reality for those struggling with eating disorders. In this episode of 'The Good Mood Podcast', Dr. Talia Marcheggiani, ND, sits down with Dr. Alexandra Sisam, ND, to dive into the intricacies of eating disorders and the journey towards healing. They explore how eating disorders are not just about food but also about coping with deep emotional pain. Dr.
Sisam shares her expertise on identifying patterns of disordered eating, from anorexia and bulimia to binge eating and high-stress relationships with food. They also touch on the impact of diet culture and body image issues, revealing how these societal pressures can exacerbate mental health struggles. Dr. Sisam discusses the importance of re-feeding and how naturopathic medicine offers valuable tools for recovery.
Both doctors note an increase in emotional and binge eating during the pandemic, providing insights into why this might be happening and how to seek support. This episode is a heartfelt conversation offering hope and practical advice for anyone dealing with eating disorders or supporting someone who is.
