Lara Flynn Boyle Anorexia
It is believed that Lara Flynn Boyle (actress) is recovering from anorexia or bulimia but there is no facts that have surfaced on it yet. It is also claimed that Lara Flynn told her friends that she was suffering from arthritis and was using homeopathic remedies to ease the pain. There are also reports that say the rumors are not true. Who really knows? She does but it looks like she isn’t telling. Lara is going to be a new cast member in ‘Las Vegas’.
Whether Lara is suffering from arthritis because of a bout with anorexia or not is yet to be known for sure, but it is a sure fact that arthritis is one of the symptoms of someone who has suffered from anorexia. Many people also suffer from arthritis anyway because of other reasons so we cannot point fingers. It might be better if some of the famous people would come forward and admit to their anorexia or other eating disorders. This might actually be a good thing for young people to see and maybe help prevent them from suffering the way that others do. If they could see that the ones they look up to actually are human too with human problems, it might be a wake up call for them. Famous people seem to hide their problems like this and it might be the wrong thing to do. Why put up with the rumors, instead come forward and tell your own stories the way they really happen so the younger generation can see how much damage the eating disorders can do. There could actually be a documentary done on the subject with some of the famous people who have suffered from anorexia so the public could become educated more on the dangers of the disease. There has to be a way to make the public aware of the disease because the numbers are growing out of proportion and it is mainly our young kids who are being effected. Whatever it takes to get the word out to the public is what needs to be done.
Anorexia is caused by several factors and the main one is the pressure society puts on people to be thin. We see models, actors, actresses, singers, athletes, and other celebrities who are thin. They are plastered on billboards, in magazines, on television and some people think they have to look like them in order to succeed in life. The problem is that people try to lose weight too fast by exercising excessively, not eating right or not eating at all and it is such a strain on their bodies that they develop dangerous problems with vital organs in the body. Anorexia can damage every vital organ if treatment is not sought in time.
