As we take a break for the summer holidays, we wanted to share some incredible interviews we have done over the last 12 months and bring together clips from guests that highlight various issues we all face regarding our ADHD. This week, Dr Bunmi Aboaba, one of the world's leading food addiction coaches and Aleta Storch, an anti-diet, intuitive eating ADHD dietician, talk about binge eating, disordered eating and how to make better nutritional choices for ourselves when we have ADHD.

In this episode, Kate and Dr Bunmi talk about:

Food addiction and disordered eating alongside ADHD and menopause.
The subconscious mind and body around food, binge eating, dopamine, depletion, unhealthy relationships with food, craving, shame, regret, guilt, self-esteem and self-compassion around food disorders.
The connection between alcohol addiction or food addiction and ADHD
The power of rituals as an anchor, using micro-moments of dopamine.
The Stop technique to help our stress response to food
The power of accountability and a buddy system
Working with and not against ourselves

Kate and Aleta also talk about:

Binge and disordered eating alongside ADHD
Why is binge eating happening with ADHD and discusses the notion of restriction and not necessarily bingeing
Dopamine seeking behaviour
Eating to prevent bingeing
Medication being an appetite suppressant
Preventing and understanding hunger with emotional dysregulation
Disembodiment and disconnection from knowing what we want
Being creative with food and keeping it simple with our nutrition
Using convenient food and making it all easier with pre-prepared food.
Removing shame about how we cook and eat
Finding freedom in doing things our way
Changing the script, doing something small every day
IBS and ADHD
Reconnecting to our bodies and checking back in.
