Life with ED, the podcast

Binge Eating Disorder is the most common eating disorder in the United States impacting an estimated 2.8 million individuals. However, it was not recognized as an official eating disorder until 2013. It is often misunderstood and undiagnosed. Today on the podcast, with the help of Jennifer Rollin MSW LCSW, we are trying to change that.

Jennifer is the founder of The Eating Disorder Center in Maryland and a clinical specialist in eating disorder treatment. Find her at www.theeatingdisordercenter.com.
