Culturally Tailored Nutrition Care With Ke'alohi Naipo, RD @the.hawaiian.dietitian

When it comes to nutrition care, a one-size-fits-all approach just doesn’t cut it—especially for those whose cultural foods have been historically pathologized or erased in mainstream dietetics. In this episode, I’m joined by Ke’alohi Naipo, RD (@the.hawaiian.dietitian), to talk about the importance of culturally tailored nutrition care. We dig into the ways colonialism has shaped food narratives, why honoring traditional foods matters in healing, and how providers can better support their clients by centering cultural knowledge. Whether you’re a clinician, someone navigating food and body struggles, or just curious about decolonizing nutrition, this conversation is for you!
