Nutrition 101 for Eating Disorders: Binge Eating Disorder Mini Training

BED is the most common eating disorder in the United States — and one of the most under-identified in clinical practice. Are you prepared to recognize it, assess it, and treat it with confidence?

This training will get you there.

Nutrition 101 for Eating Disorders is a professional mini training series hosted by Christy Maloney, RD, LDN, CEDS-C — a Registered Dietitian and Certified Eating Disorders Specialist with over a decade of clinical experience treating eating disorders at every level of care.

This training covers Binge Eating Disorder — the most prevalent eating disorder, affecting 3.5% of women and 2% of men over a lifetime, occurring at a rate 3× higher than anorexia and bulimia combined, and carrying a co-occurring mood disorder in nearly half of all cases. Despite how common it is, BED is frequently missed, misunderstood, or mistreated in clinical settings.

This training changes that.

🎯 What You’ll Learn

By the end of this training, you’ll be able to:

1. Nutrition Assessment — Screen and assess for binge eating disorder using validated tools, clinical interview techniques, and behavioral indicators specific to BED
2. Physical Signs & Symptoms — Identify medical and nutrition-related physical findings associated with BED, including metabolic complications and co-occurring mood disorders
3. Nutrition Interventions — Apply evidence-based nutrition therapy strategies including regular eating patterns, addressing restriction-binge cycles, and behavior change techniques
4. Higher Level of Care — Recognize clinical indicators for step-up to IOP, PHP, residential, or inpatient treatment
