The Institute for Optimum Nutrition Online CPD Course - Introduction to Eating Disorders and Disordered Eating

  Published to Upcoming Events on Mar 06, 2026

Practitioners may struggle to identify eating difficulties early and feel unsure how to adapt traditional nutritional approaches without causing harm and lack confidence about where their scope of practice ends and specialist support begins. 

This course introduces practitioners to eating disorders and disordered eating and the fundamentals of working safely, effectively and with confidence to support these clients. It includes recognizing common presentations, understanding key biochemical imbalances, and applying foundational nutritional, behavioral and psychological strategies to promote a positive relationship with food. 

While providing a clear framework for recognizing red flags, understanding the underlying biochemical imbalances, and outlines gentle nutritional, behavioural and psychological interventions alongside clinical boundaries, referral routes and plans for further training and supervision, this course is an introductory day and does not constitute sufficient training to practice in this specialist field. Participants will be signposted to appropriate routes for further specialist training and supervised clinical practice.
