You're in for a treat! This week on the pod we’re chatting with the incredible Becca King (who you may know as @adhd.nutritionist on Instagram), a registered dietitian and certified intuitive eating counselor who specializes in helping folks with ADHD heal their relationship with food. Becca is an ADHDer herself, so we chat about her personal experience with disordered eating, the interplay of neurodivergence with the binge/restrict cycle, and how she approaches nutrition now for herself and for her clients. Becca is here to help us bust myths about nutrition for ADHD as we delve into what it really means to support yourself, use nourishment as self-care, and create a more peaceful relationship with food (and your body!) as an ADHDer.   Tune in to hear more about… What’s on Becca’s plate (a favorite food combination she's eating, and what's on her life plate right now) How Becca was diagnosed with ADHD What ADHD feels like for her The impact of ADHD on her eating disorder, and vice versa Going from anorexia to binge eating Feeling out of control with food Why ADHDers are at a higher risk for disordered eating How body signals like hunger and fullness can be dulled in ADHDers Navigating medication and loss of appetite Why binge eating is so common with ADHD Recovering from the binge-restrict cycle Whether you should eat processed foods if you have ADHD How dopamine and carbohydrates are related The research on sugar and ADHD symptoms Becca’s favorite snacks for ADHDers   About Becca: Becca King is a Registered Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor from Charlotte, North Carolina.
