Article Synopsis
- Eating disorders (ED) are complicated problems caused by a mix of biology and the environment, and this study looked at what makes them start in teens.
- Researchers studied 50 teens with ED and compared them to other groups of kids with different issues or no problems at all.
- They found that specific hormone levels, personality traits like wanting to be perfect, and family issues like parents being overly involved are important clues to understanding why EDs develop.
