#316: Eating disorders & disordered eating in mid-life

Jan 14, 2025

I’m sharing a summary of what the research says about eating disorders and disordered eating in mid-life, and why this lifestage can make people more vulnerable to EDs and disordered eating.

Show notes: summerinnanen.com/316   In this episode, I talk about:

- How a lot of perimenopause and menopause messaging promotes disordered habits, celebrating and normalizing it,

- Some of the barriers to treatment, - That eating disorders are often associated with young women and the problems with this, - That data is limited since so few women actually seek and receive treatment, - The biological aspect of it, - What to do with this information, - Plus so much more!  Get the shownotes: www.summerinnanen.com/316   Get the free 10-Day Body Confidence Makeover with 10 steps to feel better in your body at summerinnanen.com/freebies If you're a professional who has clients or students that struggle with body image, get the Body Image Coaching Roadmap for professionals at summerinnanen.com/roadmap   Support the show via Ko-Fi - go to ko-fi.com/summerinnanen and you can make a monthly contribution.
