Medical Dietary Restrictions And Disordered Eating
MEDICAL DIETARY RESTRICTIONS AND DISORDERED EATING
As dietitians, we must be aware of intolerances, food allergies, digestive diseases, and other conditions that impose necessary limits on dietary intake. Did you know that medically necessary restrictions can increase risk for disordered eating (DE)? Not only do Registered Dietitians need to have knowledge of how to treat various cases and make appropriate nutritional recommendations, but it is also crucial to screen for DE and counsel clients in a way that helps prevent development of eating disorders (ED).

This webinar will define conditions which impose medical dietary restrictions and their relation to DE patterns. Attendees will learn how to provide counseling for clients with these conditions in a way that promotes balanced eating. Screening for DE/ED as well as prevention and treatment will be covered. Case study examples will be used to apply information learned.
Upon successful completion of this one-hour course, the participant should be able to:
  • Identify medical conditions that impose necessary dietary restrictions, like food allergies, digestive diseases, and diabetes mellitus.


  • Understand how medically necessary dietary restrictions can lead to DE/ED attitudes & behaviors.


  • Screen clients with certain medical conditions for DE/ED attitudes & behaviors.


  • Learn skills used in providing nutrition counseling for medical dietary restrictions in order to prevent and/or treat DE/ED.


  • Apply learned principles to case study examples.
