“When 'Healthy Eating' Becomes Unhealthy” with Jessica Setnick, MS, RD, CEDRD

Jessica Setnick is a Registered Dietician and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist whose mission is to educate primary care professionals about eating disorders and dysfunctional eating behavior.

In my conversation with Jessica, she discusses how shame and fear-based messages in the health care field often make people's eating issues worse, as well as the normalization and prevalence of disordered eating behaviors in American society. Jessica also addresses recent food trends like orthorexia and clean eating and when trying to eat healthily becomes unhealthy.
