What We’re Reading: Diabetes and Disordered Eating

Tara Dairman

February 15, 2007

This week, we’d like to direct your attention to this post at diabetes.about.com entitled “Eating Disorders in Teens with Type 1 Diabetes.” The post examines a new study that shows that eating disorders are twice as common in teenage girls with Type 1 diabetes than in their peers who don’t have diabetes. It includes information on warning signs for eating disorders and the dangers of insulin dose manipulation for weight control.
