TLB Nutrition Therapy Handouts
At TLB Nutrition Therapy, we believe that access to nutrition education shouldn't be limited by insurance coverage, finances, or location. That's why we've created a growing library of free educational handouts and YouTube videos designed to provide reliable, evidence-based nutrition information to anyone who needs it.
Our resources have been thoughtfully developed by the registered dietitians and staff at TLB Nutrition Therapy and reflect our commitment to compassionate, inclusive, and evidence-based care. They cover a variety of topics, including eating disorders, intuitive eating, body image, chronic health conditions, sports nutrition, family feeding, women's health, and more. Whether you're a current client, a healthcare provider, or simply looking to learn, our goal is to make nutrition education approachable, practical, and accessible.
These resources are provided for educational purposes only and are not intended to replace individualized medical or nutrition advice. We encourage you to work with your healthcare provider or registered dietitian to determine the recommendations that are most appropriate for your unique needs.
We know that healing doesn't just happen during appointments. By offering these resources at no cost, we hope to empower individuals, families, and communities with the knowledge and tools they need to support their relationship with food, body, and health.
We invite you to explore our free handouts and YouTube library and share them with anyone who may benefit. Together, we can increase access to compassionate, inclusive nutrition care—one resource at a time. 💜

Body Respect — Caring for Your Body Without Having to Love It
At TLB Nutrition Therapy, body respect can show up through food, movement, and body image. With food, it may mean eating consistently, avoiding restriction or compensation, honoring hunger when possible, and choosing foods that provide energy and satisfaction. With movement, it means shifting away from exercise as punishment and toward movement that feels supportive, while recognizing the importance of rest and recovery.
The Nuances of Intuitive Eating
Our Nuances of Intuitive Eating handout explores some of these differences. For example, not everyone experiences reliable physical hunger cues. Honoring hunger might mean using logical hunger and eating according to time. Fullness cues may also be difficult to identify, making meal timing or portion guidance helpful. And satisfaction doesn't always mean food needs to be pleasurable—sometimes eating simply meets a physical need.
Intuitive Eating Is More Than “Just Listen to Your Body”
Our Introduction to Intuitive Eating handout walks through all ten principles, including rejecting the diet mentality, honoring hunger, making peace with food, challenging the food police, discovering satisfaction, respecting your body, exploring enjoyable movement, and practicing gentle nutrition. It also addresses common misconceptions, including the idea that intuitive eating means eating whatever you want all the time or that it is a weight-loss approach.

Nutrition Doesn't Have to Be Complicated: General Nutrition
Our General Nutrition Basics handout focuses on building sustainable habits instead of following strict rules. Rather than striving for perfection, we encourage balanced meals that include carbohydrates, protein, fat, and colorful fruits and vegetables, consistent eating throughout the day, regular snacks, hydration, and gentle variety over time. Nutrition is about supporting your body—not controlling it.
