Ep 95: How Black Women and BIPoC are Further Marginalize by Diet Culture with Whitney Trotter

Welcome back mis amigos! I’m excited for today’s episode because I have the honor to talk to Whitney Trotter, registered dietitian nutritionist, and nurse, about how black women and BIPoC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) are missed diagnosed for disordered eating and eating disorders, and how diet culture exasperates racism, sizeism, capitalism, and further marginalizes people of color as less than human.   

Whitney Trotter: (she/her) is dually licensed as a registered dietitian nutritionist, nurse, and she is also a certified yoga instructor. Whitney has over nine years of experience working as a registered dietitian serving in the HIV/AIDS community as well as an expert in eating disorders. She co-found an anti-trafficking organization called Restore Corpsand is also the owner/founder of Bluff City Health, a private practice specializing in bridging the gap in the eating disorder field of equitable care and social justice.
