WW Podcast 6 - Talking with Dr. DeAun Nelson, ND about Naturopathic Practice and Health at Every Size

In this episode, I talk to Watershed Wellness - Portland Naturopathic Doctor DeAun Nelson about what brought her to Naturopathic medicine, what gets her excited about practice and how you can connect with her. But the podcast really takes off when we delve into Dr. Nelson's favorite topic - weight neutral healthcare and Health At Every Size (TM). You'll hear some basic definitions, discussion about weight stigma in healthcare (and beyond) and a few hints about what future podcast discussions might bring with Dr. Nelson.Relevant WW contentThe myth of the Body Mass Index/BMIHealth at Every Size at Watershed WellnessRelevant booksHealth at Every Size by Linda Bacon Body Respect by Linda Bacon and Lucy Aphramor (this is a newer book and has updates to the movement in it)Intuitive Eating by Evelyn Trible and Elyse ReschThe Health Trap by Chris Sandel, nutritionist (great, short book with great explanations about how undereating can cause health issues...it is on Kindle Unlimited too)Relevant PodcastsThe Reclaiming You Podcast with Sarah Vance.This is more of a ditch the diet podcast and she does not mince words about how she feels about the diet industry.
