Show Notes
Is it picky eating or something deeper? In this episode, RD Kristen Nyampong breaks down Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) — what it looks like, how it’s often missed, and why it can show up differently in BIPOC communities.
We talk about helping clients expand food variety without pressure or shame, navigating family dynamics, and how dietitians can work through a trauma-informed and weight-inclusive lens.
