In this episode, dietitian and author Maya Feller explores how culturally inclusive and anti-bias nutrition can transform patient care. She shares how her personal journey and early clinical experiences shaped her approach to honoring food traditions while supporting health.
Maya breaks down why standard diet advice often clashes with cultural foods, how structural inequities, not individual choices, drive chronic conditions, and what it looks like to center patients’ lived experiences in nutrition guidance. She also offers practical ways to keep cultural dishes flavorful and authentic while making mindful adjustments when needed.
“Let the patient tell us about their lived experience. We know the science, but we want to listen to their lived experience, and that is what we're there to do, and then marry the two together.”
