Is Health About More Than What You Eat and How You Move? with Deanna Belleny Lewis MPH, RDN

Break the Diet Cycle

Have you heard about the social determinants of health before? Addressing the impact of systemic problems on health is becoming more common - and for good reason! Though individual behaviors matter to your health, they are not the be-all-end-all solution that diet culture says they are. In this episode, we interview public health expert and Registered Dietitian Deanna Belleny Lewis MPH, RDN to discuss:

• What are the social determinants of health? Why does knowing about social determinants matter?
• How can people who live with low access to health care, groceries, and safe spaces to move work on their health?
• What can people with privilege be doing to dismantle the structures that reinforce social determinants others can’t change?
