There is growing interest in intuitive eating among scientists and consumers, evidenced by over 90 studies and over 750,000 Instagram posts. Intuitive eating is an evidenced-based approach to eating and movement created by two dietitians, Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch. Intuitive eating is a weight-neutral approach to health, but there is confusion as to how this model can be effectively used in medical nutrition therapy, eating disorders and weight management. This is the first time that Evelyn and Elyse will speak together at a national conference. Learn from the pioneers:

• How and why intuitive eating was developed
• The official definition of intuitive eating
• How interoceptive awareness, a core concept behind intuitive eating, can be a patient's empowerment tool to emotional and physical health
• Research updates on the benefits of intuitive eating
