69: Extreme Picky Eating with Dr. Katja Rowell (Veggie Doctor Radio)

In this very special episode, I interview a family practice physician who is an expert at feeding children who have extreme food selectivity. I really loved her book, Helping Your Child with Extreme Picky Eating: A Step-by-Step Guide for Overcoming Selective Eating, Food Aversion, and Feeding Disorders because it was very compassionate, loving and practical. After reading her book, I knew she would be a perfect guest for the Intuitive Eating series on Veggie Doctor Radio.   Disclaimer: The information on this blog, website and podcast is for informational purposes only.

If you have concerns about your or your child’s eating, nutrition or growth, consult a doctor.   About featured guest: Katja Rowell is a relational childhood feeding specialist. During her time in practice as a family doctor, she was struck by the prevalence of disordered eating and feeding challenges and related health problems. Rowell believes that establishing a healthy feeding relationship- in essence- how children are fed is the missing piece in addressing disordered eating and weight dysregulation. Rowell has developed a special interest in selective, or picky, eating and is passionate about sharing a responsive feeding philosophy that reduces conflict and supports the child's internal drive to grow up and do well with eating.  Described as "academic, but warm and down-to-earth," Rowell is a popular speaker and is the author of three books, including Helping Your Child with Extreme Picky Eating and Conquering Picky Eating for Teens and Adults.   KATJA ROWELL https://extremepickyeating.com https://facebook.com/thefeedingdoctor/ Dr. Katja Rowell's Books: Helping Your Child with Extreme Picky Eating: A Step-by-Step Guide for Overcoming Selective Eating, Food Aversion, and Feeding Disorders Conquer Picky Eating for Teens and Adults Love Me, Feed Me: The Adoptive Parent's Guide to Ending the Worry About Weight, Picky Eating, Power Struggles and More   Mentions: You can connect with Dr. Rowell on her website: www.extremepickyeating.com   Ellyn Satter:  https://www.ellynsatterinstitute.org   Ellyn’s Books: https://www.ellynsatterinstitute.org/shop/shop/books-and-booklets.html   MORE LISTENING OPTIONS Apple Podcasts: http://bit.ly/vdritunes Spotify: http://bit.ly/vdrspotify   NEWSLETTER SIGN UP https://doctoryami.com/signup OR Text 'FIBER' to 668-66   DR.
