Everything fat asses say about Anorexia Nervosa is a bullshit lie.  The best number I can find is around a 140 people in the US die from AN per year and the number is stable.  This is from both peer reviewed research that looked for the number as well as raw death certificate reporting.  Another common bullshit stat I see alot with the other bullshit AN stats is about high rate of sucide well peer review fucking shot that one down too.  Kate Moss and Culture is not responsible either according to the Peer review.  The number of people with AN is at the high end 8 per 100,000 or in the US about 26,000 again that is the high end number.  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4340604/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9702149  I can dig out the other papers if need be.    AN is a family tragedy, not a public health issue.  Just T2D kills that many people by the time most of us wake up in the morning every single day.  And for your spoiler alert exactly.  If anyone thinks Yale or Northwestern or Stanford has a violent crime rate equal to that of the Democratic Republic of the Congo rate during a civil war were rape was used as a weapon of war well I have shit I would love to sell them.
