Approximately five million women and men in the United States suffer from anorexia or bulimia, and as many as 15 percent of anorexics and bulimics will die, which is tragically the highest mortality rate of any mental illness. Eager to emphasize the way our treatment breaks the traditional mold, Cecilia Bergh, founder of Mandometer(R) Clinics states, "Disordered eating causes psychological problems in patients, and most patients treated with our method recover from their eating disorder." The innovative approach taken by the founders of the Mandometer(R) Clinics, teaches patients to slowly restore their relationship with food. The device, called the Mandometer(R), provides instant feedback during each meal by asking the patients to rate how full they feel and charts the rate at which they should be eating. This method trains the patients to eat at a normal pace, while reconnecting the body's feelings of hunger and fullness. Treatment also includes the elimination of psychiatric drugs, a special thermal treatment, restriction of physical activity, and the rebuilding of social skills.
