POSTPONED: Nourishing Our Kids Without a Side of Diet Culture

Join Body Liberation Ambassador, Debra Buchanan and Registered Dietitian, Maggie Perkins, for “Nourishing Our Kids Without a Side of Diet Culture.” This will be a 60-minute discussion followed by 30 minutes of Q&A.

Have you heard sugar is bad for your kids? Have you been avoiding fast food because it’s unhealthy? These are just some of the diet culture myths that don’t tell the full story of nutrition and health. In fact, diet culture can have negative impacts on our physical and mental health, including children.

This parenting talk is unique in that you get to learn from Debra, a parent who has been working to unlearn diet culture to support the health and well-being of herself, her spouse, and her three children. Along the way, you’ll also get to learn from Maggie, a Registered Dietitian, about the research on dieting.

This conversation is open to parents or anyone who is around kids and teens. Come to learn more about a different approach to caring for ourselves and the children in our life.
