Episode description

About one million Canadians have an eating disorder according to numbers from Stats Canada. That number is likely higher, because so many people don't recognize they have one and never get help. At the same time, there is rampant misinformation about health and food on social media. To answer your questions about eating disorders, we spoke to three guests. Amanda Raffoul is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Nutritional Sciences at the University of Toronto. Gina Dimitropoulos is a Professor of Social Work at the University of Calgary and research lead of the Calgary Eating Disorders Program. Chloe Grande is an eating disorder recovery speaker and writer.
