In this episode, Dr. Ed and Liz listen to the story of a parent who was told their infant was âseverely obeseâ and needed to be put on a restrictive diet - purely based on the childâs BMI and no other evaluation. This leads them to dive deep into the new AAP guidelines for the treatment of children with obesity - guidelines which are aggressive, applied to as young as 2 years old, and based almost solely on BMI screening. Dr. Ed and Liz use the lens of eating disorder prevention and treatment to assess the weaknesses, dangers, and omissions in these guidelines. We encourage listeners to stay tuned for part 2, and to read the resources listed below.

In this episode, Dr. Tyson shares the story of âCarson,â an patient who began experiencing mysterious full-body weakness events. After the patientâs father suggested that Carson wear a Continuos Glucose Monitor, Dr. Tyson discovered shockingly low glucose levels that would only improve temporarily after meals - then plummet again to dangerous levels.
Following an instinct, Dr. Tyson proposed including animal protein in Carsonâs meal plans. The improvement it caused will hopefully spark further research into the usefulness of continuous glucose monitoring during refeeding, as well as the potential benefits of animal protein on sustained glucose levels. This is a must-listen for medical researchers, dieticians, doctors, and other healthcare specialists who want to begin their own research into these new methods, in order to see if the success Carson experienced can help others in the same position.

Letâs get into it. This episode focuses on a current controversial topic in the eating disorder treatment community - the proposal of a new diagnostic category of âterminal anorexia nervosa,â and offering MAID (medical assistance in dying) to those who fit the category. Liz and Dr. Ed vehemently challenge the claims of the article that proposed the term. They draw from the expertise of other medical professionals and shine a light on the dangers of that proposed term. All in all, they discuss the importance of holding onto hope during a patientâs darkest moments. They highly encourage you to read the articles they reference in the episode linked below:

In this episode, Dr. Ed and Liz analyze the incredible film The Wonder (2022), directed by SebastiĂĄn Lelio, and starring Florence Pugh. Liz and Dr. Ed use the film as a springboard into a vibrant discussion on how communities respond to periods of mass starvation, how science and religion can clash and coexist, how eating disorders touch and are influenced by the society around the ill individual, and how âstoriesâ shape our beliefs in positive and negative ways.

What happens when a doctor becomes sick? What happens when a doctor develops an eating disorder? What particular struggles arise when âexpertsâ on the human body are suddenly at its mercy? In this episode of Ed on Ed, Dr. Ed shares the true stories of two doctors who developed eating disorders. Our hosts discuss how the demanding environment of medical residency is fertile ground for disordered eating, and how being an âexpertâ on something can actually lead one to hide or deny their pain because they think they should âknow better.â

This week is about the unique ways a patientâs religion can affect their treatment. We hear part of Zoyaâs story - Zoya is a young, Muslim woman whose eating disorder reaches a critical point during the month of Ramadan. The desire to fast and restrict water intake during the day as a form of religious observance puts pressure on her already compromised health. And, in a cruel twist of the story, an ERâs blatant discrimination keeps her from receiving the help she needs. Dr. Ed and Liz discuss best practices for navigating religion and EDs, and how to support patients who face religious discrimination.
