My name is Arya Doshi, and I am a junior at Pine View School in Sarasota, Florida. Over the COVID-19 pandemic, I have recognized that body image and eating disorders have become increasingly relevant in the average teenager's mind. Through research, I’ve had the opportunity to find out ethnomedicine around the world treats eating disorders, mental health, and other body-image related issues. Body image is not, as we commonly assume it to be, a “one size fits all” situation. It can look and feel different for individuals based on a multitude of factors such as ethnicity, geographical location, gender and more. On another note, criticisms about your body, whether they are delivered by yourself or people around you, affect your mental and physical health. I hope to spread awareness and educate other teens about health-related issues that stem from these pressures.
