Changes in eating habits can be very common in childhood but in some instances these changes can be the early signs of disordered eating and eating disorders.

In this podcast episode we sit down with Dr Michele Yeo, a paediatrician at the RCH who specialises in adolescent health, and in particular eating disorders. Michele discusses how parents can spot the signs of an eating disorder, what to do if you think your child has an eating disorder and how to tackle the societal norms of beauty standards and being thin.
