Question

Explain why culture is considered a possible cause of developing an eating disorder.

Answer 1

. North america has the most obesce people in the entire world, and thats because of the stuff the government puts in our food. It makes the food so addicting and people continue to eat it and that causes obesity. For example,right now you probably want a big mack from mcdonalds, (well at least i do,) even tho you have ate mcdonlads, im guessing , more times then you can remeber. Its like it never gets old. So you eat the food alot because its adicting, but have you ever thought about the ingeridents that is in the food? Most of them are gentitcally engineered, and that causes quick weight gain and fast growing paces. If its not organic its probablt not the best thing in the world for you. im not saying non organic food is gonna kill you, but it has more harmful ingreidents then organic food. You should make a life decison, go organic! You and your body both will be alot more helathier! it will be a bit more expensive but its woth it.

Answer 2

Eating disorders are most likely to occur in a culture were there is an emphasis on being skinny. If being skinny is linked to success in the culture more people are likely to develop a eating disorder.
