Embarking on a journey toward better health and well-being is a deeply personal and transformative process. For individuals living with a higher body weight, prioritizing a nutritionist or dietitian with experience in the Health At Every Size® (HAES) approach becomes crucial in addressing their unique needs and concerns. By choosing a HAES-informed nutritionist or dietitian, you can trust that they will provide compassionate, evidence-based guidance that goes beyond the outdated and often harmful weight-centric model.
A HAES nutritionist or dietitian understands that health is multifaceted and goes beyond numbers on a scale. They focus on empowering individuals to embrace a balanced, sustainable and enjoyable relationship with food and movement, while respecting body diversity. These professionals are skilled in addressing the challenges specific to higher weight individuals, such as weight stigma, body image concerns, and navigating the healthcare system. By choosing a nutritionist or dietitian who specializes in the HAES approach, you can confidently embark on your journey toward improved health and well-being.
