The surprising link between food freedom and A1C w/ Janice Dada

In this episode, we’re talking about how diet culture shows up in diabetes care and how it can actually make things worse. We’re joined by Janice Dada, a weight-inclusive diabetes expert, Certified Eating Disorders Registered Dietitian, and author of the upcoming book Intuitive Eating for Diabetes: The No Shame, No Blame, Non-Diet Approach to Managing Your Blood Sugar Janice shares how food fear, rigid nutrition advice, and weight-focused care can lead to disordered eating and make blood sugar management harder, not easier! We talk about how to recognize the ways diet culture shows up in care, why shifting away from shame-based approaches matters, and how it’s possible to support blood sugar while still honoring your relationship with food and your body. Whether you live with diabetes or support folks who do, we hope this conversation offers validation, clarity, and a more compassionate approach to diabetes.Resources mentioned in episode: Artificial Sweeteners: https://diabetesdigital.co/artificial-sweeteners-and-diabetes/ New Intuitive Eating Scale: https://www.instagram.com/evelyntribole/p/C8xDjMPpBvo/?img_index=1If you're living with diabetes or prediabetes and want personalized support from a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist covered by insurance, visit diabetesdigital.co to connect with our culturally aware and weight-inclusive team.
