Studies are showing that a genetic inclination into the eating disorder is more genetic that if one has a family history of the disease it may be very likely that it can indeed happen to you. Our genes are the masters of our body and they have the ability to regulate and tell the body how to function properly. Along with our genes, environmental factors and upbringing, we develop our own unique set of nutritional needs and wants. It is true that scientists have long determined that we all need a specific amount of minerals and nutrients to survive yet that complete diet and nutritional intake may not always be possible with today’s fast paced lifestyle. Living on the edge does have it’s downside for it often prevents us from getting the right balance between eating, exercise and rest , all of which is essential for a healthy body. So stop once in a while and evaluate yourself or better yet do this when you go for a check-up (which should be at least once a year) so you get the big picture on what needs to be corrected in your life so you maintain good health for many years to come.
