The Empowered Eating Series: Redefining Food and Fitness

Welcome to the Empowered Eating series! In the next four episodes we are going to dive into the complex and often conflicting messages surrounding diet and fitness. From the rise of diet culture in the 20th century to the current popularity of intuitive eating, we explore how these extremes can influence our relationship with food and our bodies.

Key Points:

1. Diet Culture:

   • Rooted in the idea that certain foods are "good" or "bad."
   • Emphasizes the "thin ideal," promoting thinness as the ultimate goal.
   • Can lead to obsessive behavior and an unhealthy focus on appearance over well-being.

2. Intuitive Eating (IE):

   • Encourages individuals to trust their bodies and eat according to internal cues.
   • Values all foods equally, aiming to remove guilt and restriction from eating.
   • While effective in reducing food-related obsession, it can lack clear nutritional guidance.

3. The Middle Path - Empowered Eating:

   • Combines the best of nutrition science with intuitive principles.
   • Focuses on health and well-being rather than appearance.
   • Encourages a balanced approach where food is enjoyed but not used as a primary coping mechanism.

In today's episode we unpack 3 signs you're an Empowered Eater:

1. Flexibility with Food: You have a strong understanding of nutrition without obsessing over it, allowing for flexibility in your diet.
2. Stable Biomarkers: Your weight and health markers, like cholesterol, remain stable, and you avoid extreme weight fluctuations.
3. Healthy Coping Mechanisms: While you enjoy food, it's not your primary way of coping with emotions. You have a variety of other coping strategies.

Conclusion: Empowered eating offers a balanced approach that prioritizes health and self-awareness without falling into the traps of diet culture or the extremes of intuitive eating.
