What does it take to foster a healthy relationship with food for children and adolescents? In this episode of The Ty Beal Show, registered dietitian and certified eating disorder specialist Taylor Aasand explores the complexities of eating disorders like ARFID, anorexia nervosa, and bulimia nervosa. Drawing from her practice in Phoenix-Scottsdale, she shares evidence-based strategies for prevention, treatment, and recovery, emphasizing compassionate, family-centered approaches and the power of intuitive eating.

What you'll learn:

  • The prevalence and impact of eating disorders in youth, affecting up to 1 in 8 individuals
  • How ARFID differs from picky eating and its severe consequences, like growth stunting
  • Why body image drives anorexia but not ARFID, and how to spot subtle warning signs
  • Practical ways to support recovery, including social media audits and family-style meals
  • How intuitive eating promotes self-compassion and balanced nutrition without restrictive diets
  • Taylor also discusses navigating today’s challenging food environment, offering parents actionable advice on fostering positive food conversations to prevent disordered eating. Find Taylor Aasand’s work at her private practice.
