Jessica Setnick, a worldwide authority on eating disorders, explains how disordered eating exists on a spectrum that affects everyone, not just those with clinical diagnoses. Her anthropological background provides unique insights into why we make the food choices we do and how our emotional states influence eating patterns.
• Eating disorders exist on a spectrum – anyone who eats can have eating problems
• The key question is whether your eating habits support or detract from your life goals
• “How you’re feeling after eating is how you were feeling before” – food often becomes a scapegoat for pre-existing emotions
• Past experiences, family patterns, and cultural messages all shape our relationships with food
• Trauma, including food insecurity, can significantly impact eating behaviors
• Shame about eating habits prevents healing, while regret opens the door to change
• The “apple test” helps distinguish between physical hunger and other emotional needs
• When seeking professional help, personality match is more important than credentials

"Oh My Gosh- I am ALREADY feeling relief after a few days! I used to wake up 2-3 times a night with shooting pain that anti inflammatories couldn't touch. Now I have been waking up just because I want to notice what it feels like to lay in bed pain free- THANK YOU!."
"When I first started with your program I was experience a lot of pain. Walking was difficult. I had to stop and catch my breath every few minutes and lean against a wall for support. Now when I walk with my husband we go for over an hour. I never had to sit down and stop...and, hardly any pain!!! 😊😊 I can’t thank you enough."
