Elephant In The Room Foundation
(UK, XT36417) Browse events
YTD Raised: £0.00Our mission is to save and improve lives of individuals with anorexia nervosa and their families by: Our message is that anorexia nervosa (AN) is a condition a person is genetically predisposed to have. It is triggered by weight loss which, in turn, can be initiated by a variety of factors. It is neither a lifestyle choice nor a condition that can be afflicted by families or society. Scientific research has proven that AN has genetic components. This understanding is essential for two main reasons: The AN process is well understood: while most people can afford to diet and lose weight throughout their lives, individuals predisposed with AN need to realize that weight loss may result in an out-of-control psychobiological spiral, leading to even further weight loss. The possible implications of this weight loss should be realised and acepted by sufferers, family and friends who should also celebrate the high achieving personality traits and sensitive nature often associated with those predisposed to AN.
