"And these [Eating disorder] behaviors are very often done under the guise of being healthy. So the third thing I look at is how much did the behaviors and or the thoughts interfere with daily living? Can the person enjoy going out to eat with a friend, or do they ever skip a party or a class because they just have to exercise? And very often, eating disorders begin as attempts to lose a few pounds, to get in better shape, or to eat healthier, a really common starting point. And then at some point, those good intentions take on a mind of their own and begin to run the show. "- Jan Courtney
Show Details:
Today we have Jan Courtney on the show, Jan is a Licensed Mental Health Clinician with over 20 years of experience working in in private practice, inpatient, outpatient, and community behavioral health settings. Jan is the coordinator of eating disorder services at CAPS.

"..Ultimately, that's really the big difference between rigid dieting and mindful eating. Is we don't have a preset of rules. We're not checking boxes, we're not counting carbs. We're not using an outside-in way of managing our eating. Mindful eating is about inside-out, and curiosity is the key to that."- Dr. Michelle May

"...one of the things I did get to learn from his mom was how to make matzo ball soup, and the other word for that would be Jewish penicillin. At least we'd joke that way, but it truly does help cure a cold. Well, it doesn't really help cure a cold, but it helps you feel better, naturally. I do it the traditional way. I boil my chicken with the vegetables in there and then, a whole chicken, and that's making my broth."- Ruth Halter

"It's been important to me through the duration of my career to help empower women and folks who just don't see themselves in the weight room.

"My favorite way to describe it [Intuitive Eating] is it's really just the self care framework for eating. So it's a way to eat that is really self compassionate, it's weight neutral, it really focuses on how food makes us feel when we are nourished and we get enough to eat, but also when we enjoy eating." - Megan Meyer

Today we are joined by all three Campus Health Dietitians. They are answering common nutrition questions asked by students/people. This conversation is fun and they aren't holding back! Enjoy!
As Christy mentions in the show, if anyone knows food, Dietitians know food.
"Learn to be your own best expert, like really working and being attuned to your own body and what works and what doesn't work and what helps you function your best during the day, because no one knows your body like you know your body."- Lisa MacDonald
"Keep up that curiosity, not only with foods that you're eating that may already be prepared, but try new foods that maybe you've heard about and haven't tried yet and take that curiosity into the kitchen and prepare your own foods, because that's all part of self care."-- Christy Wilson
"...Food is so much more than just numbers and things that we put in our body that it's it's our culture, it's love, it's comfort, it's community, there's just so much more to food than what it says on the back of the food label." - Ashley Munro

Today Dr. Duncan from the College of Public Health joins us to talk about the course he teaches to college students and the overall theme of the benefits of plant-based nutrition as part of your daily patterns! There is great information in this episode and got us all thinking about living a balanced life!
" You're all born with genes that you didn't have any choice about getting, but you got them. But you do have a choice about what happens to them. You can turn them on or you can prevent them from getting turned on and so on, this course we're going to talk about two things that I think are very essential in turning on or upping the risk of these conditions..... Chronic stress and what you put in your mouth..."- Dr. Duncan

Phil Lewis joins us to talk about his role in the Arizona Athletics department, his journey to becoming a sports dietitian and ways student athletes and active folks in general can keep nourishing simple!
"I think it's important you continue to fuel the body throughout the day because you can only process and utilize so much at one time. And when I say well balanced, I always tell our athletes have all four, your carbohydrates, protein, fruit, vegetable and some fluids."- Phil Lewis, MS, RD, CSSD, CSCS

Bridgette & Michaela from the Campus Pantry join us to talk about the challenges college students face when it comes to having enough to eat. We might not think we need the help with obtaining food, but The Campus Pantry is a great program here for students, and is a helpful resource on campus.
"Quality food is important to us because making sure that students have quality food and meals that are both sustainable and nutritiously rich are important to helping students remain healthy, be successful in courses and ultimate have the support to persist until graduation. Not only does having quality food promote better short-term and long-term health, but it also has effects on student’s educational performance."-- Bridgette Nobbe
