Study: Family-Based Therapy Can Aid Those With Anorexia -Teaching parents to help their children with eating behaviors may lead to faster weight gain, researchers say

WEDNESDAY, Sept. 24, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Family-based therapies can benefit teens with the eating disorder anorexia nervosa, a new study suggests.

"The take-away message for parents is that, first, there is good treatment available for their child who is struggling with anorexia," study author Dr. Stewart Agras, professor emeritus of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford University, said in a university news release.

"Second, the preferred treatment is family-based therapy in which parents help their child regain weight," Agras added. Read more at http://consumer.healthday.com/mental-health-information-25/child-psychology-news-125/study-family-based-therapy-can-aid-those-with-anorexia-692008.html#

Eating Disorders May Start in Elementary School -They're often linked with other mental health issues, researchers say

Canadian researchers evaluated 215 children, aged 8 to 12, with eating problems. More than 15 percent of the kids made themselves vomit occasionally, and about 13 percent had bulimic-like behaviors. Fifty-two percent of the children had been hospitalized at least once due to their eating problem, and 48 percent had been received outpatient treatment, the researchers said.

Bulimia is an eating disorder characterized by eating and purging, usually by vomiting or using laxatives. Read more at http://consumer.healthday.com/mental-health-information-25/child-psychology-news-125/eating-disorders-may-start-in-elementary-school-692543.html#
