Eating Disorders

A vast majority of eating disorder research and treatment is focused on white women who are very thin. Meling rees rodriguez has been trying to address this since she was a graduate student at the university porto rico in the nineties. Maling works at the centre hor excellence in eating disorders at the university of north carolina and chapel hill now, where her clients are mostly latinas who don't speak english. She told me there's so much we still don't know about how disordered eating affects the lathinax community. One difference she's already noticed in her work s from the trama of immigration.
