The National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) is the biggest non-profit organization in the United States and works to prevent eating disorders as also to provide referrals to patients suffering from anorexia, bulimia as well as binge eating disorders and, also people who are taken up with body image and issues pertaining to weight.
The National Eating Disorders Association consists of numerous professionals who form the Board of Directors as well as the Founders and staff, who together channels their collective efforts to eliminate eating disorders. The National Eating Disorders Association is able to provide all the information and help necessary for those having eating disorders including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorders as well as other eating related disorders.
This eating disorder is incredibly unknown, especially when compared to the other eating disorders; in the United States, for instance, prevalence of this eating disorder is unknown because the disorder often is unrecognized and underreported; as well, studies have shown that children with mental retardation and autism are affected more frequently than children without these conditions, and among those individuals with mental retardation, this eating disorder is in fact the most common.

My dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer's diseases this neuron disease started 25 years before being revealed it was triggered the moment we started eating sugars including any and almost all carbs that break down to glycerol, and he was placed on the best medical treatment approved by the United States, (FDA) he has been taking Cholinesterase, Meantime to treat his memory loss, confusion and the problems with his thinking and reasoning. Just to help slow the progression and manage the symptoms, as no cure exists I read through with interest. I once believed Alzheimer disease has no cure. Well it is true with English medicine, but not with herbal medicine. My Dad's experience opened my eyes to the reality of a cure through herbs. My Father was a vibrant man before his encounter with Alzheimer. He was a scientist, hence his mental capability was never in doubt. In 2013, he was diagnosed with Alzheimer. The symptoms manifested through repeating conversation and gradually forgetting things. It became progressive from finding the right words during conversation, to significant confusion and forgetting details about himself. It was not a good experience, seeing your father whose brilliance had no match, totally became a shadow of himself. His doctors said the disease has no cure, just medications for treatment which had a lot of side effects were administered to him. Early 2016, while on the internet, I bumped into a story of Alzheimer, and I read about a cure through herbs with interest. I researched more to be sure it was not a hoax. In my quest, Doctor James herbal mix medicine was mentioned in the testimony. I contacted the Great Healer on his email that was provided (DRJAMESHERBALMIX@GMAIL.COM) and I got his herbal mix medicine for my father. He told me that his herbal mix medicine will help my Dad to reduce the abnormal protein fold inside his neurons, and regulate the nutrients and molecules in his body system, and as well stop the progressive disorder that build up in damaging his brain cells, and help his weak cells that causes brain shrinking to function well, it's a good herbal drinks for cell repairing. This doctor James is a super great man and his herbal mix medicine is wonderful and works effectively as he said, with no side effects. It's been 4 years and my Dad is perfectly okay and back to his laboratory work even at old age. For your loved ones with Alzheimer or Dementia, take them off English medicine and use Dr. James herbal mix medicine for treatment. If you are suffering from Dementia, Alzheimer's disease or facing different kinds of health challenges do not hesitate to contact the great healer on his Email at @ DRJAMESHERBALMIX@GMAIL.COM and get your permanent cure. He's a good man, and he will help you cure diseases such as.. Cardiovascular diseases, Cancer, Diabetes, Hepatitis A, B C, Alzheimer's disease,Hiv/Aids,Gential Herpes virus,Schizophrenia,Bipolar disorders,
