How to Have Agency With Food Choices Featuring Amy Carlson

View descriptionShare

Host Heather Creekmore interviews dietitian and eating disorder specialist, Amy Carlson, MS, RD, about the complex relationships individuals have with food, their own health, and agency. Heather and Amy delve into the assumptions that connect food, health, and lab results, and Amy stresses that anomalies in lab results can often be influenced by factors beyond one's control, such as family history.

Heather shares her personal anxieties about not following a food plan and the fear it instills when approaching medical check-ups. Amy shares insights into diet culture's pressures and the significance of developing self-awareness over outsourcing one's health to external authorities. The episode explores how social media contributes to self-critique and how societal norms can affect personal choices.

Heather and Amy also discuss when we first surrendered our agency around food and our health and how, for many of us, we were taught the rules of diet culture from a young age. Amy explores how damaging and inaccurate some of these rules and premises can be, especially when applied to our children.
