Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past fifteen years, there has been a great increase in the knowledge of eating disorders in sport and effective means of treatment. In this book, the authors draw on their extensive clinical experience to discuss how to identify, manage, treat, and prevent eating disorders in sport participants. They begin by examining the clinical conditions related to eating problems, including descriptions of specific disorders and a review of the relevant literature. Special attention is given to the specific gender and sport-related factors that can negatively influence the eating habits of athletes. The second half of the book discusses identification of participants with disordered eating by reviewing symptoms and how they manifest in sport; management issues for sport personnel, coaches, athletic trainers, and healthcare professionals; treatment; and medical considerations, such as the use of psychotropic medications. A list of useful resources is included in an appendix, as well as a glossary of important terms.

Download or read book Health Food Junkies written by Steven Bratman, M.D. and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2004-07-27 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to identify the eating disorder orthorexia nervosa–an obsession with eating healthfully–and offer expert advice on how to treat it. As Americans become better informed about health, more and more people have turned to diet as a way to lose weight and keep themselves in peak condition. Anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa–disorders in which the sufferer focuses on the quantity of food eaten–have been highly documented over the past decade. But as Dr. Steven Bratman asserts in this breakthrough book, for many people, eating “correctly” has become an equally harmful obsession, one that causes them to adopt progressively more rigid diets that not only eliminate crucial nutrients and food groups, but ultimately cost them their overall health, personal relationships, and emotional well-being. Health Food Junkies is the first book to identify this new eating disorder, orthorexia nervosa, and to offer detailed, practical advice on how to cope with and overcome it. Orthorexia nervosa occurs when the victim becomes obsessed, not with the quantity of food eaten, but the quality of the food. What starts as a devotion to healthy eating can evolve into a pattern of incredibly strict diets; victims become so focused on eating a “pure” diet (usually raw vegetables and grains) that the planning and preparation of food come to play the dominant role in their lives. Health Food Junkies provides an expert analysis of some of today’s most popular diets–from The Zone to macrobiotics, raw-foodism to food allergy elimination–and shows not only how they can lead to orthorexia, but how they are often built on faulty logic rather than sound medical advice. Offering expert insight gleaned from his work with orthorexia patients, Dr. Bratman outlines the symptoms of orthorexia, describes its progression, and shows readers how to diagnose the condition. Finally, Dr. Bratman offers practical suggestions for intervention and treatment, giving readers the tools they need to conquer this painful disorder, rediscover the joys of eating, and reclaim their lives.

Download or read book Investigating the Prevalence and Correlates of Disordered Eating Behaviors in Immaculata University Student Athletes written by Christine M. Steerman and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Significance: Recent research shows that disordered eating (DE) is commonly found across colleges in the United States, especially in the student athlete population; yet many cases go undetected and untreated due to subclinical symptoms, lack of awareness and education on specific behaviors. Those competing in weight-related and "lean" sports are reported to be at an even higher risk of developing DE behaviors. The short-term and long-term health effects are damaging to the athlete's mental and physical health with the potential for the latter's to be life threatening. College coaches have daily interaction with these student athletes and can aid in identifying changes in an athlete's behaviors or performance that can be due to DE. With proper education and training, coaches may be better able to identify and refer athletes to health professionals who may be at risk or engaged in DE. Purpose/Aim: The purpose of this cross-sectional study is to identify the prevalence of DE in IU student athletes and examine correlations related to sport, sex, and/or academic standing. This study would also assess IU athletic coaches' perceptions of DE prevalence, measure detection capabilities, and responses to athletes with perceived DE. Methods: Through the questionnaire, participants' demographics, weight status, body image, and eating behaviors will be assessed in all IU student athletes. The data collected will be analyzed to identify prevalence of DE and at-risk behaviors in IU student athletes as well as the correlates. A separate online questionnaire will collect data on knowledge and perceptions of DE in IU coaches. This data will be analyzed to identify the nutrition education needs of IU coaches in order to better support the efforts to reduce DE prevalence in this population. Expected Results/Interpretation: This study will serve as a basis to provide tailored nutrition education to IU student athletes and coaches with the goal to reduce current prevalence of DE and minimize new DE cases in current and incoming IU student athletes. The collected data is expected to provide insight into current eating habits of IU athletes and the prevalence of DE. Analysis of the data will identify whether specific sub population of student athletes at IU have a higher prevalence of DE as well as correlation factors. Coaches' knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs regarding prevalence, concern, ability to detect and seek outside help will be analyzed, which will provide a basis for the IU Nutrition & Dietetics department to develop education, training, and resources for the coaches. Conclusion/Implications: Implications of this study may include the development of screening tools for current and incoming IU student athletes and nutrition education sessions designed for the athletes and coaches. It would also support future research in this area including investigating prevalence of DE in student athletes at neighboring universities in the Philadelphia area to compare larger scale results. Overall, the research data collected would identify areas where improvements can be made utilizing Immaculata University's Nutrition Education department in an effort to reduce prevalence and minimize new cases of DE in IU student athletes.

Download or read book Eating Disorders written by Vinood B. Patel and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-16 with total page 1554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eating disorders can profoundly affect the individual and family unit. Changes in the individual include disturbances in body perception, organ damage, and increased risk factors leading to ill-health in later years. There is thus a fundamental requirement to adequately diagnose, treat and manage those individuals with eating disorders which the American Psychiatric Association have recently categorized (DSM-5) into Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, and Other Specified- and Unspecified-Feeding or Eating Disorders. The aim of this reference work is to describe, in one comprehensive resource, the complex relationships between eating disorders, diet, and nutrition. In this regard eating disorders are regarded as psychiatric conditions though there are some eating disorders that have a genetic basis. Genetic influences will also include polymorphisms. It will provide a framework to unravel the complex links between eating disorders and health-related outcomes and provide practical and useful information for diagnosis and treatment. The volume will also address macronutrients, micronutrients, pharmacology, psychology, genetics, tissue and organ damage, appetite and biochemistry, as well as the effect of eating disorders on family and community. The material will enhance the knowledge-base of dietitians, nutritionists, psychiatrists and behavioral scientists, health care workers, physicians, educationalists, and all those involved in diagnosing and treating eating disorders.
