On this week’s episode I am super excited to be introducing you to our next special guest Principal Dietitian and Director of the Simply Health Group, Kate Stoker. Kate founded Simply Nutrition Dietitians within the Simply health Group in 2011 and has now expanded the clinic from the Sunshine coast all around Queensland. The Simply Health Group not only includes Simple Nutrition Dietitian's but also Simply Engage Occupational Therapy to provide occupational therapist support services. Kate has an array of experience working in both public and private settings such as in medical settings, nursing homes, in public health and corporate health. She is passionate about improving people’s relationship with food, health and quality of life. Kate has a special interest in working with Bariatric Surgery patients, paediatrics, gastrointestinal disorders, in corporate health, with disordered eating and with binge eating disorder. Kate is also a member of the Dietitians Association of Australia and the Obesity Surgery Society of Australia and New Zealand. On this week’s episode Kate will be speaking about people’s current views on food and how we can start to think about food more as nourishing. For those who have experienced disordered eating, or an eating disorder, food might be something that is viewed as negative, with no value and something to be avoided. However, as we know with the support of a Dietitian that this is far from true. Food actually plays a tremendous role not only for our physical health but also in our social, emotional, spiritual and psychological health. This episode aims to help people take a different view on food and the role that it can play in our lives. Encouraging people to look at their values around food and the lives that they are wanting to live. So lets get into it! Podcast Summary 1. The problem with seeing foods as just calories 2.
