Description

In this episode, Ruth Steggles is joined by Lisa Smith, a functional nutritionist specialising in eating disorders and neurodivergence. Lisa shares her experience working with clients at the intersection of restrictive and binge eating, autism, ADHD, and nutritional imbalances. They explore how understanding the individual—rather than just the diagnosis—is crucial in recovery, why feeding the brain is foundational, and how family dynamics and societal messages around food can shape our responses to nutrition and health. Packed with practical insights and compassion, this conversation is a must-listen for carers, professionals, and anyone navigating the complexities of disordered eating and neurodivergence.
