"Center for Discovery: The Exploding Epidemic of Eating Disorders"

Guest: Dr. Jennifer Henretty & Jennifer Gorman

Quick to find a cause for the issues of teen and child eating disorders, images of 'perceived beauty'

portrayed in every fashion magazine and television advertisement are too often blamed for an increased

obsession to be thin, but there's a lot more to it than that. Dr. Jennifer Henretty and Jennifer Gorman join

Answers for the Family to talk about their life-changing work with teens and women who are struggling with

eating disorders as a result of negative coping mechanisms and/or mental illness. Tune in to learn more about

this epidemic and what is being done to help those in need.
