Emotions are not only a factor in overeating; they contribute to undereating, too. People who suffer from anorexia nervosa have emotional distress that prevents them from eating anything, healthy or not.
Anorexia is considered by mental health professionals to be a distinct mental health condition.

Arthritis Disability and Body Weight
When Margaret started experiencing arthritis pain, she felt she needed to slow down, take it easy to alleviate her discomfort. Somehow, the problem just got worse, and on top of that, she gained more weight. And the more she gained, the more she hurt.

That Sweet Soda Lifestyle
To look at your average soda pop advertisement, you’d think that those sweet, bubbly brews of flavored sugar water are the very elixir of life. It seems the truth is far from the Madison Avenue image.
I’m Dr. Caroline Cederquist, giving you The Skinny on Your Health.
You don’t see many soda pop ads that promote their product by showing an overweight couch potato with a cigarette in one hand and a can of soda in the other.
But a recent study of nearly 100,000 women showed that- females at least-those who drink sweetened soda pop are MORE likely to… Continue reading

But since the supplement industry is unregulated, consumers had little help in evaluating marketers’ claims of safety or effectiveness. Until now.

Moms and Daughters - Exercise and Family Participation
Most people agree that kids don’t get enough exercise nowadays, and experts give a variety of reasons for that. It’s interesting to see the reasons KIDS give.
I’m Dr. Caroline Cederquist, giving you the Skinny on Your Health.
A recent study surveyed 9 to 11-year-old girls about their exercise habits and what they perceived as barriers to their participation in exercise activities.
The study sought to contrast overweight girls and normal-weight girls and see how their perceptions and attitudes differed.
But the most important finding might be a SIMILARITY rather than a difference.
