This is my story as an individual that fell victim to the wellness industry and all its digital health know-it-all’s; fad diets and phoney facts. As a guy, this has been an especially tough battle as it is not common, maybe shameful, for men to suffer from disordered eating. I hope my story will help lift that stigma and turn judgement into awareness.
This episode includes excerpts from a book I had started to write years ago when I was trying to make sense of my battle with food, my body and my mind. My symptoms never quite aligned with the traditional starvation/purge behaviours that we all know are common. I hope this can provide some insight into the grey area of the world of eating disorders.
