Comprehensive Healthcare Research

Eating disorders are widely considered to be the deadliest of all mental health disorders. Unfortunately, they are also pervasive, affecting almost 10 percent of the world’s population. These statistics are not meant to alarm: they are simply a reflection of the reality that eating disorders are a growing problem, and something needs to be done about them.

You will learn all about the different types of eating disorders, what causes them, who is affected by them, and more within the pages of this book.

The book features:

Common eating disorders • (such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder) and uncommon eating disorders (such as pica, diabulimia, ARFID, and several others you may not know existed).
 • A breakdown of 
treatment options • from inpatient treatment centers to finding an outpatient team, and everything in between.
 • Eating disorder recovery 
stories from real survivors • of eating disorders at the end of each chapter.
 • A walkthrough of the 
typical reasons • that people get eating disorders, including their age, gender, profession, and more.
 • An introduction to the concept of
 intuitive eating • , which is often considered the end goal by many eating disorder treatment facilities and dietitians.
 • A discussion of the difference between 
“in recovery” • and
 “recovered” • and why these two terms don’t necessarily have the same definition based on which expert you might think to ask.
Take a look inside this book to discover how recovery can be possible for you, or, better yet, take the book home with you—your recovery journey begins with this single step.
