Hello, you are listening to Sigma Nutrition Radio. This is episode 364 of the podcast. I'm your host, Danny Lennon. You're very welcome, whether you are a new listener or a long-time listener. I hope you find this episode enjoyable. Today I'm going to be talking with Dr. Jake Lennardin, who is a senior research fellow at Deakin University in Melbourne, Australia, where his research focuses on eating

disorders, primarily looking at testing and evaluating different approaches for eating disorders.

And Dr. Lennarden has a particular interest in understanding how modern information technology

can potentially be used to help those who are most in need.

And we're going to discuss some of that, hopefully, in our conversation today.

Some of you may remember that Dr. Leonardo was on the podcast back in episode 281, where we talked about a whole range of topics, some of which are going to be related today, but also

some other areas. We got more in depth on things around binge eating. We got into flexible

restraint and rigid dietary restraint, some of which may be discussed here today, but

for a follow-up episode, if you haven't heard that one and you end up liking this episode,

then I suggest you put episode 281 on your two listen list. In addition, if today's episode and the

topic that we discuss is something you want more in-depth information on and want to keep up to

date on, then Dr. Leonard has a great website

called Break Binge Eating, which I will link to in the show notes of this episode. He's also quite

active on Instagram as well and shares lots of good information there. So that will be linked

in the show notes, which you can find at sigmautrition.com slash episode 364 so sigma nutrition.com

slash episode 364 gets you links to anything we mentioned today including any of the

research papers that we may discuss more background about dr. Lenard and the work he's doing

and then a transcript to the episode, as well as our previous episodes,

is also available. And whilst you're on the Sigma Nutrition website, go and check out all

the other stuff that we have available, including all our Sigma statements, where we break down

confusing or controversial topics within nutritional science, go in depth and try and give you as

comprehensive a piece as you will hopefully need on a particular issue or you can check out some
