There is very
important new information that could affect the way eating disorders are
treated. According to research from the Archives of Pediatric and
Adolescent Medicine, boys and girls develop eating disorders for different
reasons. That's important because it could have a direct impact on
choosing treatments. According to the research, frequent dieting and
trying to look like persons in the media are predictors of binge eating in
females of all ages. In males, negative comments about weight by fathers
are predictive of starting binge eating. It's a very interesting study
showing the differences between the sexes.
We always
appreciate your comments.
