- Summary:
- Food plays an important role in our society -- it offers an opportunity to socialize with one's community, brings pleasure through different smells and tastes, and most importantly provides nourishment. However, for individuals dealing with an eating disorder, the benefits of food can become overshadowed by fear, shame, or incapacitating malnourishment. Because both food and eating are such critical aspects of our culture and our survival, these disorders may lead to functional impairment in every facet of an individual's life. Eating Disorders are grouped due to their shared characteristics of disturbances in eating or behavior associated with eating, which causes significant physical or psychological distress.
