What “Disordered Eating” Really Means
Listen now
Description
We discuss what the term “disordered eating” really means, the difference between that and diagnosed eating disorders, and whether intuitive eating and the anti-diet approach are meant to include everyone along that spectrum. If you think you might have some level of disordered eating but aren’t sure how that’s defined or how it differs from a full-blown eating disorder, this episode is for you. Subscribe to our newsletter, Food Psych Weekly for weekly Q&As and more.
