The Healthy Matters Podcast
S05_E01 - Food, Feelings, and Freedom from Eating Disorders
With Special Guest: Dr. Melissa Eisenmenger, PhD, LP
Binge eating disorder, Bulimia nervosa, Anorexia nervosa - there’s a chance you’ve heard of these, but do you really know what they are?
Eating disorders are complex and affect both our physical and mental health, and unfortunately, the number of reported cases has doubled since the year 2000(!!). Obviously, food is an essential part of our lives and something many of us find great joy in, but for others, the relationship is much more complicated, oftentimes leading to dangerous outcomes. But who gets eating disorders? How and when do they develop? And what can be done to identify, diagnose, and get help to those who need it?
Social media, diet advertisements, and diet culture are big contributors, but they’re not the only culprits. On Episode 1 of Season 5, we’ll sit down with Dr. Melissa Eisenmenger (PhD, LP), a psychologist at Hennepin Healthcare who’s helped countless people who suffer from eating disorders. We’ll have an open and honest conversation around the causes, diagnoses, and treatments of these all too common conditions, as well as discuss ways you can support anyone you know who might be affected by them. We hope you’ll join us.
The National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) website is an excellent source of information and resources for anyone seeking help.
