Eating disorders in South Africa Tuesday 22 October 2002
Among Zulu women, fat has traditionally been seen as beautiful. But now it seems black women living in rural South Africa are succumbing to the Western trend for thinness.

A new study shows a rise in eating disorders. The research has been carried out at the University of Zululand in South Africa which compared 40 black female students from Zululand with a similar number of white British women at Northumbria University in Newcastle.
Jenni talks to one of the reports authors, Julie Seed, a psychologist at Northumbria University and an expert in eating disorders.
