Increasing numbers of children and young people are presenting for
treatment of an eating disorder, but there are many different types
and they are often confused, making it difficult to know what
support to offer. This easy-to-read guide presents all the vital
information on a range of eating disorders: anorexia nervosa,
bulimia nervosa, selective eating, and avoidant and restrictive
intake disorders. Each eating disorder is clearly defined, making
it easy to draw distinctions between them. The book covers their
origins, characteristics and typical development, letting teachers
and parents know what signs to look out for. There is practical
advice on how to help young people, strategies for overcoming
common difficulties, as well as information on available
treatments. Vignettes feature throughout to help teachers and
parents apply knowledge to real-life situations. This is an
essential resource for teachers and parents of children and young
people with eating disorders.
Sunny Sea Gold started fighting a binge eating disorder in her
teens. But most books on the topic were aimed at older women, women
she had a hard time relating to. Calling on top psychiatrists,
nutritionists, and fitness experts, Sunny offers real advice to a
new generation fighting an age-old war. With humor and compassion
from someone who's seen it all, Food: The Good Girl's Drug is about
experiences shared by many women-whether they've been struggling
with compulsive overeating their whole lives, or have just admitted
to themselves, that yes, it's more than just a bad habit.
For those with children who suffer from chronic health conditions
like sensory conditions, ADD or ADHD, depression, anxiety, asthma,
autoimmune disorders, diabetes, arthritis, respiratory conditions,
poor digestion, food allergies, obesity, or developmental learning
disorders, The Clean-Eating Kid reveals how all of those conditions
may share the same root: inflammatory eating. Jenny Carr, health
coach and international best-selling author of Peace of Cake: The
Secret To An Anti-Inflammatory Diet shows parents, grandparents,
and pediatricians how replacing inflammatory foods with
alternatives that kids (or kids at heart) love is the single most
effective way to begin reversing chronic symptoms. Jenny has
designed a streamlined approach to anti-inflammatory eating for
children by focusing on one simple food group: processed sugar. In
The Clean-Eating Kid, Jenny outlines the steps to allow children to
experience natural, health-based fat loss, stop cravings in their
tracks, help children find their own motivation for eating an
anti-inflammatory diet, and navigate events like holidays and
birthday parties. The Clean-Eating Kid also includes over 30
grocery store food swaps for cake mixes, cookies, breads, pizza,
and more and guides readers to making anti-inflammatory eating a
movement for the whole family.

but breaking up with it has proven impossible? Even scary? In this
candid account, addiction recovery coach Lori Losch leads those
struggling to break up with bulimia through ten strategies to help
them gain freedom with food, while learning to love their body.
Between a two-decade battle with bulimia and body dysmorphic
disorder, along with her experience helping others overcome their
disordered eating, Lori has created a process that works. Part
Wasted by Marya Hornbacher and part Recovery 2.0 by Tommy Rosen,
Rather than Rehab will help you break the binge/purge cycle,
embrace your body, and create the life of your dreams.
