045: Eat With Freedom With Anti-Diet Dietician Cristina Capucci
Eat With Freedom
What could be more liberating than enjoying a good meal without worrying about calories, carbs, or points?
For many people, eating without restrictions is a dream come true. And that's exactly what Cristina Capucci promises.
In this week’s episode of High-Performance Nursing, I had a fascinating conversation with Cristina Capucci, a Registered Dietitian with a Master of Health Science. She is an advocate for client-centered care, with her clients driving the decisions that work best for them.
Cristina chats about how the traditional dietitian role is shifting and how she is working to support her clients in their overall health and wellbeing, not just their weight. We discuss how Cristina uses a non-diet approach with her clients, which is based on the Health at Every Size (HAES®) principles.
We also dive into intuitive eating, a method that allows you to listen to your body and eat based on your hunger and fullness signals.
If you’re looking for a more holistic approach to nutrition, or if you’re curious about how to make peace with food, I think you’ll enjoy this conversation with Cristina Capucci.
