Episode notes

Study shows that the effects of starvation are extreme, no matter how they play out. starving bodies look and respond differently. And some of that also has to do with how large their bodies are before they start restricting. If you take someone in a fat body, i mean, they could lose half their body weight before people even think that it's at all a concern.

Fat people have them too! This week, special guest Erin Harrop tells us about one of America's most under-diagnosed and misunderstood problems. Along the way we talk about elbow bumps, Twitter etiquette and '90s sweatpants. Our content warnings are becoming increasingly threatening.

Here's Erin's faculty page and a bunch of her research!
