Hola amigos! Welcome back!

Announcement: rebranding private practice to Orozco Nutrition – new website in early-mid August 2021. Podcast remains One Small Bite.

In this episode, Ashley Roehrig and David Orozco discuss how a weight-centric healthcare system creates an unhelpful and stressful nervous system response. Doctors have good intentions, but looking at the full picture reveals shocking outcomes.

First a little intro about our guest:

Ashley Roehrig is a registered dietitian who practices in Charlotte, North Carolina with Second Breakfast Nutrition. She is a certified eating disordered registered dietitian, a certified intuitive eating counselor, and a student of the Embodied Recovery Institute. Ashley treats eating disorders in adolescents and adults through a trauma informed Health at Every Size lens. Her treatment approach is rooted in the belief that her clients are the experts on their own bodies and she partners with them as they tap into how life experiences, beliefs, and nervous system responses have influenced their relationship with food and their bodies.

Highlights of topics we discussed on today’s show

• Weight Neutral Diabetes care
• How bias leads to misdiagnosis
• How eating disorders may develop
• Stigma is trauma, trauma is stress
• Hyperarousal with food
• The thin ideal is making us sick

Welcome back to the One Small Bite Podcast! This is it! Part 3 of the series and this time David is excited to welcome special guest Latinx expert and therapist Melissa Carmona. 

In this 3 Part Series we discuss the weight-centered biases in our healthcare system specifically within the Latinx community. Intuitive Eating and HAES informed therapist Melissa Carmon will pick up and further elaborate on the discussion from the previous two episodes on how diet culture perpetuates weight stigmatization and escalates racism, sizeism, ageism, healthism, capitalism, and patriarchy, which negatively impacts the Latinx communities!
