I’m joined by Shana Spence (she/her), Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and author of Live Nourished: Make Peace with Food, Banish Body Shame, and Reclaim Joy. We are talking about why the BMI is bullshit, whether processed foods are really bad for us, and her perspective that “all foods fit.”Show notes: summerinnanen.com/308   In this episode, I talk about: - How bias is taught and reinforced in teaching,

- How the BMI is used to discriminate,

- Other ways to measure health,

- How to define processed food,

- What she feels is most useful about intuitive eating, and what she would change,

- That food is not just for nutrients, it’s also for joy,

- Plus so much more!  Get the shownotes: www.summerinnanen.com/308   Get the free 10-Day Body Confidence Makeover with 10 steps to feel better in your body at summerinnanen.com/freebies If you're a professional who has clients or students that struggle with body image, get the Body Image Coaching Roadmap for professionals at summerinnanen.com/roadmap   Support the show via Ko-Fi - go to ko-fi.com/summerinnanen and you can make a monthly contribution.
