Intuitive eating (IE) has become increasingly popular, with many healthcare professionals embracing it as a non-diet framework and individuals affected by the psychological effects of chronic dieting adopting it as an alternative approach. There is strong evidence to support the use of IE as an alternative to restrictive eating, with reported benefits such as improved psychological well-being and reduced disordered eating behaviour. As a registered dietitian with a history of disordered eating myself, I strongly support IE and advocate for its use where appropriate. However, it is not a universal solution and may not be appropriate in every context.
