Defining the guiding principles of weight-inclusive nutrition education
Weight-centric nutrition education centers weight as a health indicator and teaches individuals methods for controlling their weight and shape. This approach has negative psychological and physiological consequences, including the development of eating disorder pathology. Alternatively, weight-inclusive nutrition education disrupts anti-fat bias, may act as primary prevention of eating disorders, and offers a more sustainable approach to wellbein…
Weight-inclusive nutrition education in K-12 schools
Purpose This viewpoint explores the potential that weight-inclusive nutrition (WIN) education has to mitigate anti-fat bias, weight-based bullying, and disordered eating among young people. It argues for a shift in how nutrition is taught in K–12 school settings—moving away from weight-centric approaches toward a more inclusive and holistic understanding of food, bodies, and health. Design/methodology/approach Drawing on the principles of the soc…
Ditching Diet Talk
BACKGROUND: Nutrition education in U.S. high schools is traditionally taught from a weight-centric approach. Emerging evidence suggests the need for alternative curricula that emphasize health behaviors rather than body weight. To address this gap, a weight-inclusive nutrition (WIN) curriculum was collaboratively developed and implemented with high school health teachers. METHODS: This pilot study examined the perspectives of three teachers using…
Exploring weight inclusive vs. weight-normative approaches in high school nutrition education
Purpose Teaching about nutrition is a crucial component of high school health education, with the potential to shape students' perceptions about food, weight and bodies and improve health outcomes. Weight-inclusive approaches have demonstrated success in improving body acceptance, decreasing dieting behaviors and anti-fat attitudes and improving health outcomes and may decrease weight-based bullying. However, little is known about nutrition educa…
Dishing Up Morality
Support for a Weight‐Inclusive Curriculum? Exploring Partner Perspectives and Influences on Nutrition Education in Vermont High Schools
BACKGROUND: The weight-normative approach to nutrition education dominates health education programming across the United States, despite evidence that this paradigm contributes to negative outcomes including weight cycling, bias and stigma, the development of disordered eating behaviors, and weight-based bullying. METHODS: This study investigates perspectives of 10 potential partners with interest in and potential to influence nutrition educatio…
Milk Consumption and Waste Across 5 Montana High School Lunch Programs
BACKGROUND: Few studies document milk selection and waste among high school lunch programs. METHODS: This observational research assesses the types of milk selected and wasted among 5 Montana high school lunch programs. Over 6 days across the 2014-2015 school year, 3842 milk cartons were collected. Direct weighing was used to assess the ounces of milk wasted and consumed by milk type. Outcomes included the number of milks selected by type at each…
Economic Burden of Hospitalizations for Heat-Related Illnesses in the United States, 2001–2010
Understanding how heat waves affect morbidity and mortality, as well as the associated economic costs, is essential for characterizing the human health impacts of extreme heat under a changing climate. Only a handful of studies have examined healthcare costs associated with exposures to high temperatures. This research explores costs associated with hospitalizations for heat-related illness (HRI) in the United States using the 2001 to 2010 Nation…
