Episode description

Restrictive eating disorders and the ability of the brain to develop an addiction to energy deficit has an evolutionary explanation. This episode explores how and why the brain adaptations that occur with a restrictive eating disorder were once a much needed survival response and not the 'mental illnesses' they are considered today

The information for this episode is taken from my newly available book, 'Addicted to Energy Deficit - A Neuroscience Based Guide to Restrictive Eating Disorders', which you can buy now ... And my second book is also now available and it is called, 'Aiming for Overshoot', available if you click here.   www.hellybarnes.com
