Why is weight restoration so important when treating anorexia?

In today's video I answer an question I'm often asked which is why there is often such a focus on weight restoration during the early stages of treatment for anorexia nervosa, even when this causes great distress - people often wonder why it's not possible first to work therapeutically to address some of the underlying issues. The key reasons are the physical danger low weight presents, and the fact that a starved brain is not a good tool for engaging with therapy. I hope you find this video helpful.
