With ARFID, many individuals who experience lack of interest struggle with not feeling hungry and may also be living with a very narrow variety of foods to choose from, which makes it difficult to be excited about meal times. Individuals living with ARFID may only eat foods of a certain texture or color group, or they may simply cut out certain textures or color groups.

People living with ARFID often struggle with feeling comfortable around meals or certain foods.
👉They fear consequences of foods such as vomiting or choking, whether it can really happen or not.
👉They may fear how the food feels in their mouth, or dislike how it smells, they may even refuse the food simply by how it looks on the plate.

Lack of interest does not mean that they are disinterested in all foods, however in some cases and for some individuals living with ARFID this may be true.

As registered dietitians we are a part of the medical field. We have completed 2000+ internship hours through foodservice management, clinical, and specialty rotations along with sitting and passing a board exam through CDR (our governing body). We focus on science and research based information in action with our patients.

We practice through an intuitive eating lens to support those we work with get to the bottom of their challenges and break free from "wellness culture".

Isn't it just picky eating?

No, ARFID is much more than just picky eating. Individuals living with ARFID are not choosing to not eat meals to give those around them a hard time, they are having a hard time with food. Simply put their nervous system is sensing a threat in an otherwise safe situation. By partnering with an experienced clinician they are able to develop the tools they and support they need to overcome that fear and work themselves down from that intense fear.
