EP. 201: Health At Every Size: A New Perspective

Today’s episode is a doozy. This topic has divided dietitians more than any other topic I’ve witnessed over my 30 year RD career.

And I’m about to create a little more friction, unfortunately. Because I want to weigh in on a different perspective regarding health at every size. A perspective some will not like, I’m sure.

Today on the Make More Money as a Dietitian Podcast, I share my thoughts and a few relevant statistics that should be important to the dietitian community & profession as a whole. If we don’t wake up to these statistics, the future of our profession is in jeopardy.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE

Reasons why I don’t believe in HAES
Why I believe RD’s shouldn’t turn away clients if they want to lose weight
Current statistics regarding overweight/obesity and why I believe RD’s are perfectly positioned to help
The importance of being innovative as a collective profession
