Summary In this episode of the ADHD with Jenna Free podcast, I discuss the complex relationship between ADHD and food. I dive into the challenges faced by ADHDers regarding their eating habits, including unhealthy relationships with food, binge eating, and the impact of dysregulation. I share my personal journey from dieting to intuitive eating and how you can use intuitive eating and regulation to begin building a more balanced and healthy relationship with food. Takeaways ADHD can significantly impact your relationship with food. Many individuals with ADHD struggle with binge eating and dysregulation. A healthy relationship with food involves nourishment and enjoyment, not punishment. Intuitive eating can help create balance in eating habits. Ditching diet culture is essential for a healthy food relationship. No foods should be labeled as good or bad to avoid moral judgments. Regular eating can help regulate emotions and prevent binge eating. Connect with Jenna Instagram TikTok
