What triggers it
Showing, describing or promoting: diets, exercises, products or services with exaggerated claims (fast or dramatic results); restrictive low-calorie diets including extended intermittent fasting; products, medications or devices prone to misuse for weight loss or muscle gain (even without selling them); a body type as 'ideal' in an unhealthy context; or your own ongoing struggle with disordered eating, even when it doesn't encourage the behavior.
