| hsrob said: Obesity is a symptom, not a disease, so you can't just 'cure' it in everyone with a one -solution-fixes-all kind of approach. Admittedly without knowing all the facts, my first impression with these people is that they need to lose their entitlement complex and go out and get a job. But forcing or coercing medical care of any kind on any people for any reason and you are on the top of a very slippery slope. |
That's exactly the problem with Anorexia, you can't call it a disease, it's a symptom (usually of anorexia nervosa) that's why it is so hard to treat.
