176. ADHD and Eating Disorders with Dietitian Georgia Hexter


Listen Later

Today on the show I’m joined by dietitian, nutritionist, and Credentialed Eating Disorder Clinician Georgia Hexter. She provides a compassion filled, non-judgmental space for clients to explore challenges with food, eating and body image, and is committed to collaborating with her clients to help them meet their goals. 

Georgia follows a non-diet, Health at Every Size approach, and assists clients to listen to and respect their body’s hunger and fullness signals to foster calm, mindful and intuitive eating experiences. Outside of work, Georgia enjoys spending time with loved ones, her greyhound Poppy, and creating recipes. She also loves watching reality TV (Kardashians and Real Housewives), and is continuing to practice downtime/non-productive, enjoyable activities. 

In this podcast episode Georgia and I discuss the connection between ADHD and eating disorders including:

  • What is ADHD and what are the signs/symptoms people can look out for?
  • How ADHD affects eating behaviours?
  • If there certain eating disorders which are more commonly linked with ADHD or whether can they occur across all eating disorders and disordered eating subtypes?
  • What nutrition and treatment considerations need to be made when a person has both ADHD and an eating disorder/disordered eating? 
  • What are some common struggles that individuals with ADHD face when trying to heal from an eating disorder? 
  • And lastly she shares some insight on treatment options and strategies for improving eating behaviours with ADHD
