Study Notes
Eating Disorders
- Disordered eating involves unhealthy eating behaviors and worries about food and body image.
- Eating disorders are extreme cases of disordered eating, diagnosed based on specific criteria related to body weight and eating behaviors.
- Body image is a person's perception and feelings about their body's appearance and functioning.
- Disordered eating patterns can be influenced by individual and environmental factors.
- Understanding the difference between disordered eating and an eating disorder:
- Disordered eating includes behaviors like chronic dieting, restrictive eating, binge eating, and food avoidance, while an eating disorder is more severe and encompasses extreme behavior changes.
- Both may include similar behaviors but disorders are much more severe, with varying frequency or severity compared to disordered eating.
- Common eating disorders:
- Anorexia nervosa: characterized by restrictive eating patterns, intense fear of weight gain, and distorted body image.
- Bulimia nervosa: characterized by binge eating followed by compensatory behaviors like purging to maintain weight.
- Binge eating disorder: characterized by recurring episodes of eating large amounts of food in a short period, often feeling a lack of control.
Other Eating Disorders
- Eating disorders are a psychiatric condition that involves extreme body dissatisfaction and long-term eating patterns that negatively affect body functioning. They are diagnosed by a medical professional.
- DSM-5 is a manual used for diagnosing mental health disorders, including eating disorders.
- Eating disorders are influenced by many factors, including genetics, temperament, and environment.
- Cultural obsessions, like diet cultures, can be strong factors in developing eating disorders. These encourage an extreme focus on thinness, often neglecting physical and emotional health.
- Body image influences eating disorders as a person's perception of their body can greatly affect their eating behaviors.
Common Eating Disorders
- Anorexia nervosa is a restrictive eating disorder characterized by severe weight loss due to an extreme self-perception of weight. Self-starvation is often a feature.
- Bulimia nervosa is characterized by repeated binge eating episodes followed by purging to maintain weight.
- Binge eating disorder involves recurring episodes of eating large amounts of food, coupled with a feeling of lack of control.
Etiology of Eating Disorders
- Risk factors include dieting, early childhood eating problems, concerns about weight and size, negative self-evaluation, sexual abuse, and other traumas.
- Precipitating factors involve puberty, parental divorce, death of a family member, or other mental health issues.
- Coping mechanisms, such as managing uncomfortable emotions, can play a role in disordered eating patterns.
- Gender, ethnicity, body shape, weight, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status can also influence the risk.
Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD)
- BDD is a mental disorder where a person fixates on perceived flaws or defects in their appearance.
- BDD plays a role in eating disorders, as the constant focus on appearance can trigger restrictive eating behaviors.
- Anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder are linked to BDD.
- Health risks from BDD include deficiency in eating and bodily functions.
Nutrition Therapy for Eating Disorders, Nutrition in Older Adults
- Nutrition therapy for eating disorders focuses on normalizing eating behaviors and satiety cues.
- Nutritional needs change with age; factors like slowed metabolism (BMR), changes in absorption, tooth loss, chewing difficulty, and medication interactions are common in older adults.
- The body may not be processing nutrients effectively and so it's important for proper nutrition.
Food Insecurity and Public Health
- Food insecurity is when a household lacks consistent ability to obtain enough food for every member to maintain health.
- Food insufficiency also impacts chronic disease.
- Food insecurity can affect both adults with issues ranging from cancer to diabetes, and children with behavioral/emotional and development problems.
Social Determinants of Health
- Social determinants like socio-economic status, education, neighborhood, physical environment, employment, and social support networks greatly affect health.
- Food deserts are geographical areas lacking access to affordable, healthful foods, impacting nutrition and potentially related health problems.
Food Processing and Additives in Processed Foods and Diets
- Processed foods often contain low-cost ingredients, added sugars, and high ratios of calories to nutrients.
- Food engineering makes processed foods more appealing by manipulating taste, texture, and appearance.
- These foods can also contain hidden sugars, excessive consumption of which can contribute to chronic conditions.
- Food engineering techniques may negatively impact behavior and be directly linked to disease.
Weight Cycling
- Weight cycling is the recurrent pattern of losing and regaining weight, which is associated with negative health impacts.
HAES Theory (Health at Every Size)
- HAES supports healthy habits without the focus on weight control. This approach promotes body positivity, and encourages acceptance of body sizes and shapes, also acknowledging other factors in relation to health.
Food Advertising's Impact
- Advertising significantly impacts food choices, especially children who are more vulnerable to these influences.
- Companies often promote processed foods and unhealthy options through advertising, influencing public health outcomes.
