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…
Women disproportionately shoulder burdens imposed by the global Covid‐19 pandemic
The current study focused on how the sudden onset of the pandemic magnified existing inequalities for women in the United States. A total of 2115 participants responded to an online survey regarding pandemic‐related changes to household and childcare responsibilities, employment, mental and physical health and safety, housing, worries and stress, and coping strategies. We employ an intersectionality analytical framework to understand how existing…
A Qualitative Analysis of Adolescent Responses to YouTube Videos Portraying Sexual and Gender Minority Experiences
Sexual and gender minority youth are at risk for negative mental health outcomes, such as depression and suicide, due to stigma. Fortunately, sense of community, connection, and social support can ameliorate these deleterious effects. Youth express that most of their social support comes from peers and in-school organizations, but these sources require in-person interaction. Past research has identified social media sites as virtual and anonymous…
Diet Pill and Laxative Use for Weight Control and Subsequent Incident Eating Disorder in US Young Women
Objectives. To investigate the prospective association of diet pill and laxative use for weight control with subsequent first eating disorder diagnosis in young women. Methods. We used longitudinal data from 10 058 US women spanning 2001 through 2016. We used multivariable logistic regression models, adjusting for age, race/ethnicity, and overweight status to estimate the association between weight-control behaviors and subsequent eating disorder…
