Another question about eating disorders?

Question by [email protected]: Another question about eating disorders?
Why does America look at anorexia and bulemia as a medical disorder, but look at obesity with disgust? Even alcoholism and drug addiction is now viewed as a “disease”, but obesity is just the sign of a weak pig. Do eating disorders not go BOTH ways? It’s been proven time and time again that food “comforts” the brain with the release of dopamine in the same way that drug and alcohol addiction do, but still no one wants to accept obesity as actually being a physical and/or psychological disorder. Why is alcoholism a “DISEASE” but food addiction is not?
