Back by popular demand, Dr. Shapiro is the first ever returning guest on the podcast! In this episode, Liz and Dr. Ed talk with Dr. Shapiro about the myriad of ways an eating disorder effects the digestive system. They also discuss trauma-informed care as an approach to every aspect of treatment.

In this episode, Liz and Dr. Ed watch several YouTube videos of NCAA athletes sharing their experiences as competitors with eating disorders. They use these amazingly honest and insightful accounts to spark a conversation on the particular risks college athletes face and what responsibility the NCAA has to protect their health. Medical topics covered include bone density and RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport).

In this episode, Dr. Tyson and Liz have the privilege of interviewing Heidi Armstrong (injuredathletestoolbox.com). Heidi is a multitalented woman - a mountain biker, open water swimmer, certified dog masseuse, search and rescue volunteer, and mentor for injured athletes. She shares how her experience recovering from an eating disorder pushed her to examine her childhood and opened her creative side. Her words remind us of the emotional similarities between any type of recovery (whether from injury, disorder, or crisis of any kind) and of the power of a true friend who can “read your label.” If you’re wondering what that quote means…guess you’ll just have to listen to the ep to find out!
