New Expert Article on Eating Disorders

As you have probably seen, we have begun to explore various mental health topics over the past several months. Many of these topics are challenging to cover, to say the least, but are ones that our Community has asked us to tackle. With the help of two extremely experienced, dedicated mental health experts (both of whom are long-time Fitness Blender users, in fact), we are proud to be able to explore topics we have not been able to previously.

Today’s topic, Eating Disorders, is one that may be triggering for individuals who are currently active in their disorder, and for those new to recovery. No material on the Fitness Blender website is intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Eating Disorders Explained, Contributing Factors, and Lived Experiences

However, given the grim statistics around eating disorders and the continued requests for expert advice on related topics, it is important to highlight that help is available, and getting better or helping someone you love on the road to recovery starts with awareness. Let’s begin by exploring the features, possible causes, and impact of eating disorders. In part 2 of this series, we’ll cover treatment approaches.

We hope that you find this article helpful. Please let us know if you have questions or concerns.
