Welcome to the Attention Deficit Disorder Expert Podcast series by Attitude Magazine.

Hello, I'm Carol Fleck, the Editor of Attitude Magazine.

Welcome to Mental Health Out Loud, a new type of conversation where the editors of attitudes

talk with leading experts in the fields of ADHD and mental health about the topics of greatest concern.

Today, we're talking about strategies to encourage healthy eating among teens with eating disorders

and ADHD. It's part two of our conversation on eating disorders, and this one will focus on diet and nutrition.

We're asking our experts, Megan Niskern, a registered dietitian, and Dina Cabrera, a clinical psychologist,

the very questions that our readers have asked to get help for families right now.

Dina is a clinical psychologist and certified eating disorder specialist with more than 24 years of experience.

She has a private practice in Anthem, Arizona, and she has previously served as president

of the International Association of Eating Disorders Professionals.

Megan is the owner of Mac Nutrition Services. She is a senior lecturer at Arizona State University.

In 2021, she launched an online training program for registered dietitians

called Deep In Your Perspectives Nutrition Therapy for Mental Health.

Megan works with clients with complex eating disorders and supervises other registered

dietitians in the areas of eating disorders, substance use, and mental health nutrition support.

She has authored the revised 2020 eating disorder standards of practice and standards of

professional practice. Before we start our conversation, I have just a few housekeeping items.

Those of you tuned into this slide event may submit questions for Dina and Megan at any time

by navigating to the text box under the video player. We will do our best to incorporate your

questions into today's conversation. And if you support the work we're doing here at Attitude,
