NOW WHAT?! What is Orthorexia?
We\u2019ve covered body positivity and eating disorders on this podcast, but one topic we haven\u2019t hit: orthorexia, an obsession with "healthy" eating. The precise definition is still up for debate and it\u2019s not yet recognized as a clinical diagnosis. Nonetheless, it\u2019s increasingly recognized as a type of disordered eating, and adolescence is a common time for it to emerge.\n\nShow Notes:\nNational Eating Disorders Association\nOrder our book This Is So Awkward\nCheck out all our speaking and curriculum at\xa0www.lessawkward.com\xa0and our super comfy products at\xa0www.myoomla.com\nTo bring us to your school or community email\xa0operations@lessawkward.com\nTo submit listener questions email thepubertypodcast@gmail.com\nWatch the full episode on Youtube!\nProduced by Peoples Media\nTranscript\nLearn more about your ad choices.
