Assignment 3
During adolescence, body image and weight can turn into dangerous obsessions. These disorders frequently begin during adolescence. Typically when we think of adolescence eating disorders, we think of anorexia/bulimia, or even obesity - and mainly in girls. Now boys are also obsessing over unattainable bodies, just as girls have long been known to do. Girls struggle with weight loss; now boys are trying to "bulk up." There is a new eating disorder concern that is happening with our teens. It is called "bigorexia." Do a Google search on "bigorexia." Discuss what this eating disorder is and the concerns related to body building, supplements and high protein diet, and lastly possible steroid use.
