In this episode, BANA Health Educator Maryum Chaudhry (she/her) sits down with NEDIC staff Emily Tam (she/her), resource development coordinator, and Ary Maharaj (he/him), Health Educator.
Together, they delve into the intersection of food, body image, and mental health within racialized communities, bringing their expertise in eating disorders to the conversation.
The discussion explores how cultural expectations, intergenerational trauma, and systemic barriers impact the experience of disordered eating in People of Colour (POC).
They also examine how traditional foods are often labeled as “unhealthy” within Western narratives, and how hustle culture and medical bias influence perceptions of health.
Throughout the episode, the NEDIC team offers valuable insights on how eating disorder care can be made more inclusive.
