Books - Eating Disorders
Eating Disorders vary markedly from people who have an unhealthy relationship
with food to people who are struggling with Anorexia. If you are struggling
with Anorexia, please see our Anorexia
information page. The books recommended here are for educational purposes
only and do not constitute therapy. If your relationship with food is
starting to impair your health, please seek professional help immediately.
