Eating Disorders and How the Healthcare System Perpetuates Them

Life Support is back to talk about eating disorders once again. This time Dr. Jen Gaudiani, author of "Sick Enough," speaks on how those with eating disorders can often feel as though they are not "sick enough," how the healthcare system plays a role in perpetuating that idea, and how comprehensive treatment for eating disorders should address both the mental health and nutritional aspects.

Guest: Dr. Jen Gaudiani

Host: Rachel Blanton & Jen Clark

Music and Editing: Anthony Leon
