The best part of working with my clients is seeing the mental shift that occurs with nutritional therapy. I work with a lot of people who have been imprisoned by restrictive diets and have beaten themselves up for years because they feel like a failure. At Nutrition Unveiled, the most important thing that occurs is developing a positive relationship with the mind, body, and food, and learning to nourish and treat the body rather than deprive and hurt the body. Happiness creates a much deeper level of health than any number on the scale ever will!

Frequently, Amy provides a more in-depth examination of external tools, and encourages clients to inquire within and challenge themselves to view their food and their relationship with the body and self differently. In our current health climate, Amy also sees a number of clients who seek to address gastrointestinal conditions and autoimmune issues like MCAS, POTS, and EDS, that interfere with feeding themselves and promote or encourage disordered eating.

Eating Disorders Nutritionists and Dietitians
What are the most common types of eating disorders?
The most common types of eating disorders include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). Individuals may also be diagnosed with "other specified feeding or eating disorder" (OSFED), which is a type of eating disorder diagnosed when a client does not meet the full criteria for anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating disorder but still experiences significant distress related to eating.

What diet is best for eating disorder recovery?
Because eating disorders vary widely in symptoms and severity, there is no single best diet for recovery. While not all individuals with eating disorders are underweight and require weight gain during recovery, those who do may particularly benefit from consuming balanced meals on a more structured schedule. This approach helps establish a regular eating pattern and regulate hunger cues. In general, eating disorder dietitians recommend that clients focus on improving their overall relationship with food and eliminating certain "food rules," while also ensuring they consume an appropriate amount. For example, clients with anorexia nervosa often have significant fears surrounding the consumption of high-calorie foods; dietitians may encourage these clients to include such foods in their diet in a balanced manner to help facilitate recovery and achieve a more normalized state of eating. Conversely, clients with bulimia or binge eating disorder may benefit from a diet that avoids foods that are particularly triggering for them to binge on. Many clients with eating disorders benefit from seeing a dietitian who specializes in eating disorders in order to ensure that their diet meets their specific recovery-related needs.

How are eating disorders treated?
Eating disorder treatment often involves a multidisciplinary team of clinicians working together to address the various aspects of the condition. A physician typically monitors physical changes and health problems, a therapist addresses underlying thoughts and emotions, and a dietitian develops a plan to help the patient achieve and maintain a healthy weight. While most individuals can be treated in an outpatient setting, some may require more intensive care provided by residential or inpatient facilities. In addition, early intervention for disordered eating can significantly increase the likelihood of a successful recovery, and ongoing support and monitoring are also crucial to prevent relapse and sustain progress.

How do dietitians help people with eating disorders?
Nutrition counseling is a crucial component of eating disorder recovery, and dietitians play a vital role in this process. They help clients develop personalized meal plans to meet their nutritional goals, which is particularly beneficial for those who need to gain weight after periods of food restriction. Dietitians also encourage healthier eating patterns by helping clients incorporate foods they may have previously avoided due to eating disorder behaviors. Additionally, eating disorder dietitians often collaborate with other members of the client's care team, such as medical doctors, psychiatrists, and therapists, to provide comprehensive support. This multidisciplinary approach is especially important for clients with medical conditions related to their eating disorder, such as heart issues or electrolyte imbalances, which require close supervision by a medical doctor in coordination with a dietitian.
