Eating Disorders – Replayed

Many external factors, like peer pressure and social iconography, can influence individuals to engage in eating disorders. Other times people fall into eating disorders through an apparent lack of self control – or so it seems to them. There may be much more to the issues though that have less to do with will power and social influence and more to do with body chemistry imbalances. While we definitely, definitely acknowledge the influence of social pressure triggering eating disorders we also want to give due attention to the significance of individual biochemical balance.
