You may find the following peer reviewed journal useful for research purposes, or to get an overview of topics currently being researched. Information on the 'European Eating Disorders Review' can be found here.
Photographs of people with an eating disorder
As a matter of policy we do not hold images of people with an eating disorder. Nor do we condone the use of pictures of people when they are/were at their lowest weight. This can cause retrospective distress to the individual and is not helpful to other sufferers.
