SUMMARY:Beyond Assumptions: Complexities at the Intersection of Diabetes and Eating Disorders in Latine Communities
DESCRIPTION:Eating disorders are often overlooked in Latine individuals living with diabetes\, where cultural context and routine medical practices can blur the line between necessary self-management and emerging harm. This session explores how family dynamics\, food traditions\, body ideals\, and structural stressors shape the way disordered eating presents — and how it is understood in care settings. Through case-based discussion\, participants will gain culturally responsive\, weight-inclusive considerations to approach this intersection with greater nuance\, curiosity\, and compassion.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning Objectives:\nFollowing this presentation\, participants will: \n\nAnalyze how cultural context and diabetes self-management practices can complicate recognition of disordered eating in Latine individuals. \nDifferentiate between medically indicated diabetes care behaviors and patterns that may signal emerging eating disorder behaviors. \nApply culturally responsive\, weight-inclusive considerations to clinical conversations and interdisciplinary collaboration when working with Latine patients navigating diabetes and disordered eating concerns.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLevel B: Skills and Application\n\n\n\nAt this level\, learners move beyond theory to actively apply knowledge in practical settings. Emphasis is on developing proficiency\, problem-solving\, and hands-on skills that can be implemented in real-world scenarios. Ideal for practitioners looking to strengthen their capabilities.\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\nDiana Mesa\, RDN\, LDN\, CDCES Bio:\n\nDiana Mesa\, RDN\, LDN\, CDCES\, is a bilingual Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist based in Miami\, Florida.
