ARFID differs from other eating disorders because it is not based on body image concerns. Children and adults with ARFID may avoid food due to sensory sensitivities, fear of choking, or a lack of interest in eating. The new guide explains key symptoms and offers direction on when to seek professional help.
Since 1999, EatingDisorderTreatment.Org has provided free, unbiased information to help individuals and families better understand eating disorders. While it does not offer direct treatment, the site serves as a trusted source for education, awareness, and connections to care.
This new article is part of the organization’s ongoing effort to make eating disorder treatment information2 more accessible and actionable for the public.
