Episode 4 Male Bulimia
This week I sit down and have a chat with Marcus who describes himself as an 'ex-bulimic, B rated rock star' who is now a Nutrition coach helping men who struggle with eating disorders navigate their way through the tricky world of dieting. He gives a very interesting insight into his struggles with bulimia and how he physically saw himself led to over training and his then obsession with dieting. Marcus explains about how our subconscious attitude towards food is something we need to be aware of and how commercially we as men have so much pressure on us to look a certain way it can lead to many of us developing issues with our looks, fitness habits and behaviours. There are so many fascinating insights into male eating disorders, some of the reasons why and how disorders can manifest, plus the mental and physical implications it can have on us.
