What is Causing it

Most everyone blames the media for causing eating disorders. But according to Dr. Doug Brunell "The media doesn't cause eating disorders, but the media is a factor". Our culture promotes thinness you don't need to listen to the media to hear this message. That is pretty messed up. If you thought starving yourself wasn't bad enough going bulimic or anorexic can cause further health concerns. When you vomit stomach acid comes up and causes tooth decay. Also a side affect of anorexia is hair loss! Female anorexics can stop menstruating and then later in their life not be able to have children. The worst side affect is death from starvation... So if i haven't convinced you so far that anorexia and bulimia is the wrong thing to do and deadly then go do your own research!
