	Description:		When we think about eating disorders we often imagine a teenage girl heavily influenced by social media, but new evidence proves that these conditions can and do affect everyone, and are becoming increasingly common among older women. The Quicky speaks to an expert and a mature woman who spent decades living with an eating disorder before getting help, to examine why so many of us are suffering in silence.
