@kevinnbass I’m looking forward to hearing these ideas when they’re fully developed. Even if we disagree, I think it would make for an excellent debate
@kevinnbass Out of curiosity, do you have a specific example in mind of a person who deserves jail time for their quackery and what specifically would be the grounds for jail time?
@kevinnbass And who would decide which views/what type of language would merit jail time? Does the number of followers a person has determine if their tweets could land them in jail?
@kevinnbass Yes I think medical licenses should be revoked more often from certain doctors spreading gross misinformation. Tech platforms could do a better job at preventing the spread of misinformation. But I can’t think of any Twitter personalities that deserve jail time for their views
@StreetSmartRD@JesseLunsford @tommysantospn Aka, they seem to fully understand the risk/reward balance=maybe not disordered. But exaggerated view of reward and minimizing their potential risk=disordered?
@StreetSmartRD@JesseLunsford @tommysantospn That brings up an interesting thought. There’s obviously risk/reward in making the decision to diet/not diet (athletes and non-athletes). Does the patient’s “perceived” risk/reward calculation play into whether you’d classify the behavior as disordered?
@StreetSmartRD@JesseLunsford Does the duration and reason affect how a clinician diagnoses/treats EDs? Many of these athletes have generally “normal” eating patterns in the off-season and only do these dramatic weight/water cuts for 2-7 days. I’m curious about an RD’s perspective on this
@StreetSmartRD@JesseLunsford What types of psychological evaluations are used in diagnosing eating disorders? Are you able to share these questionnaires? I’m curious of diagnoses change (or don’t change) for athletes who do dramatic short-term weight cuts for powerlifting/boxing/MMA
