Default eating disorders

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...102900751.html

Washington Post ran this article a few days ago.

I have always thought that some girls with eating disorders may be gluten intolerant. I know that ever since I was a teen, I would struggle with food. I figured out in highschool that if I stayed on a "diet" meaning I stuck mostly to vegetables and low calorie (not breads/cookies) I felt much better. However, it was obviously hard to stick to this so I cyled in and out of feeling ok. I know my food habits became somewhat obsessive and probably were throughout my life. In college I ate a lot of nutmix and rice cakes and ran incessantly. (I think running cleared the toxins out of me or something.)

Anyhow, every time I read an article about eating disorders I just get a little sick to my stomach thinking the medical community is off base with understanding a potential cause.
