Anorexia nervosa is a life-threatening disorder associated with high rates of relapse and ineffective therapeutic models. Conventional treatments overlook the biological consequences of self-starvation – consequences that impact brain function, cognition, and behavior. As mainstream medicine continues to ignore the proven relationship between nutrition and mental health, this book delivers lifesaving information. Dr. Greenblatt outlines how to correct nutrient deficiencies and decrease anxiety – the keys to lasting recovery from anorexia. Answers to Anorexia presents a model of anorexia treatment that prioritizes the correction of nutritional deficiencies. In tandem with other interventions, this model comprises an approach that is comprehensive, cogent, and successful.
“Answers to Anorexia is a long overdue book and an important addition to the library of anyone who treats eating disorders. In fact, this book will also be useful for those suffering and their families. It is easy to read, provides an overview of various treatment modalities, and adds the important new contribution of treating nutritional deficiencies in Anorexia. It is most unfortunate that those who have suffered have been without such a resource for so long. Used properly, this book is a true game changer.” — Carolyn Costin. The Carolyn Costin Institute
