Book synopsis

Eating disorders are on the rise and they are among the most difficult to treat. Exercise addiction is often overlooked in the realm of eating disorders because sufferers are seemingly engaging in what most of us would consider healthy behavior. But those who do suffer know that exercise addiction takes on a life of its own, interfering with normal everyday activities, and potentially in negative health side effects, including weight loss, stress fractures, low heart rate, and muscle tears, as well as negative mental health side effects, like anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. This book takes on exercise addiction from its symptoms to its treatment, including narratives from sufferers throughout.
