In this episode of the Female Athlete Nutrition podcast, I talk with fellow dietitian Taylor Larson. We talk about treating athletes with eating disorders within inpatient and intensive outpatient settings. Taylor speaks to the different levels of eating disorder care, the multidisciplinary team approach, and general treatment timelines. We discuss when to stop exercising during recovery, emphasizing physiological and psychological contraindications, before talking about returning to sport and developing a healthy relationship with movement. Taylor and I talk about why athletes are at risk of developing eating disorders, the influence of team and sport cultures, coaching styles, personality traits, and more. Finally, we highlight the place for different levels of care, highlighting the role of inpatient treatment for athletes with eating disorders. Taylor Larson is a Registered Dietitian, certified in eating disorders and sports dietetics. Taylor specializes in working with both athletes and non-athletes with eating disorders and disrupted relationships with food through a weight-neutral lens.
