94: Intuitive Eating for Diabetes: 10 Principles Without the Shame w/ Janice Dada, MPH, RDN, CDCES, CEDRD

If a diabetes diagnosis has left you feeling like you did this to yourself, and you want to manage your blood sugar without shame or a list of forbidden foods, this episode will hopefully remove that from you.  Chrissy sits down with Janice Dada, registered dietitian and author of Intuitive Eating for Diabetes, to talk about what intuitive eating looks like after a diagnosis. Chrissy received her own type 2 diagnosis last year, and Janice’s work took her from shame to acceptance and agency. In this episode, Janice clears up the myths about diabetes and prediabetes, explains the real causes of diabetes (eating too much sugar isn’t one of them), and answers whether you can eat sugar with diabetes. She also walks through the ten intuitive eating principles and what each one looks like after a diagnosis. Her invitation is to get curious about what your body does with a food, adjust if you want to, and drop the shame. Next time, Chrissy and Janice take on diabetes and eating disorders.
