Yea women’s bodies need a certain amount of fat each day to function properly. Underweight women often have issues conceiving even if they still get a period. Biologically speaking there is something called a “primordial pouch”, it’s that little extra lower belly fat seen in paintings of women from the Renaissance era, and it’s main purpose is to provide energy to a fetus if a woman is pregnant during a food scarcity.

I used to do this. And also supplement a lot of food with cauliflower I was scared of eating potatoes and almost never did (unless I was stuck having to eat dinner with my parents) And also the nut counting I used to eat no more and no less than 14 almonds because it's around 100kcal. I'd set certain portions of foods to limit the amount of time needing to calculate and eat the same foods over and over At one point I even made a list of allowed foods 5 drinks 5 ingredients for meals 5 snacks And I believe there was another category of 5 sweets? (Also included sugar free gum) And that was all I ever allowed myself to eat unless I had no choice And the meal ingredients were stuff like cabbage, tomato, cucumber The only things that had some sort of substance were almonds, whole wheat bread and tuna The drinks where all 0kcal or close to it Looking at my old ed habits make me sad. I've always loved food so much yet I forced myself to not have any of the good stuff If she does struggle with an ED I sincerely hope she gets better.

I only recently discovered Dr. Dray and noticed that she was both intelligent, caring, and educational, as well as anorexic. Anorexia is not a dirty word. Neither is depression, bi-polar, manic, borderline--none of these are dirty words. As much as I love Dr. Dray for her intelligent content, I love her equally for her bravery whether she is ready to acknowledge it or not. It's not our business, but it's also not something we should be shamed for talking about. This is a subject that has affected almost us all. We can all acknowledge it respectfully, as we should, as well as love on her and hope she gets better. Thank you to Abbey who handled this with immaculate and pristine grace.

these comments are maddening. This dietitian is commenting on Dr Dray’s food choices, not judging her competency as a dermatologist. She mentions ED triggers as she explains having also been through it. The entire point of this “review” is for her to give her professional opinion as a dietitian on whether Dr Dray’s food choices are overall balanced and healthy or cause for concern. Clearly, everyone who has watched Dr Dray for any amount of time (I have followed her for many years) knows she has food issues. I don’t think Ms Abbey is digging at Dr Dray but she’s clearly illustrating WHY some of these meals are not balanced and are a caloric deficit for a person of Andrea’s size, stature and lifestyle. I mean, the objective is clearly stated in the video title. It’s not about judging a person or putting them down, but highlighting and emphasizing both good and bad of this specific diet. Let’s be honest, Dr Dray does not have a well balanced diet and it’s pretty obvious she struggles. It’s important that other people who follow her, do not follow her eating practices and stick to her guidance in the area of dermatology where she is clearly an expert.

So, I just want to commend you on your gentle and compassionate way of challenging this individual’s way of eating. I am a licensed therapist. I have worked with a number of individuals with disordered eating patterns. You can absolutely tell you’re a professional. Your commentary and insights were challenging, but still compassionate. I have zero doubt Dr. Drey knows what’s going on. If you were to make a very clearly challenging video, which I am sure she will see, she would have immediately written it off and dug her heels in deeper. Thank you for being the highly professional and compassionate person that you are. It is noticed and appreciated by other professionals. ❤️

@@AbbeysKitchen & Jason Manning: All you have to do is look at the intro video clips of her working out 3+ years ago when she started her channel & compare them to clips over the past year to know that her weight is MUCH improved. You have to blind or dumb not to see it. That's why I have zero doubt she's aware of her eating disorder - bc she's OBVIOUSLY working to turn it around. My problem with all these "well meaning" reviews about her lately, is that you all are *so full of yourselves* that you refuse to acknowledge the progress she's made (assuming you even bothered to check before filming). Her channel is not a recovery channel, and that is by choice. She doesn't owe explanations or daily check ins to anyone, and for all you know, it's actually HELPED her recovery bc her entire existence doesn't revolve around making a public spectacle of her private pain & struggle, or burdening herself with the responsibility of having to be a perfect role model to THOUSANDS of people trying to recover from an ed, when progress & recovery is hard enough as it is. Making her channel about her area of expertise is a chance to build not just a community, but self esteem & IDENTITY (ie, she is WAY MORE than just someone with a disorder, and as a fan of hers, I feel these types of reviews that don't acknowledge that, along with the healthy gains she has made, are trying to diminish & reduce her to an ed & make a spectacle of her for easy clicks, views, and likes. You got a view out of me, bc I had to click on this in order to say my piece, but you also got a thumbs down, as I've done for every other one of these reviews popping up in my recommends that refuses to give her credit for how much healthier she is today than she was when she started her channel).

It's weird, because her diet looks very "goals" according to media standards of what a "healthy woman" should eat. But watching it with you made me realize how restrictive the language is and how much avoidance is happening. I still need to teach my brain that eating healthy does not mean just veggies, and that an actual healthy diet/mindset does not avoid foods completely.

For all the people commenting on how “Dr. Gray is a dermatologist and has ‘horrible’ skin” is really kind of naive and rude to say. A lot of people go into a profession not because it’s a perfect aspect in their life, but because they have struggled with it. So basically, most people go into a profession that they’ve struggled with to become INFORMED over their hardship rather than letting it control them. Just how this KZitemr shared she used to have an eating disorder and is now a Registered Dietitian and promoting HEALTHY eating is a perfect example, but no one is commenting on that. That would be like someone being a lawyer and saying “But you’re a lawyer you can’t be getting speeding tickets!” It’s really crazy to me that people think like that and can be so judgemental rather than praising someone for facing what they struggle with and LEARNING about it and be able to help other people who are going through the same thing. Super triggering to see how negative the world has become.

She actually has amazing skin. She just doesn’t wear makeup which is almost hard to come by these days. So we see “abnormal” when in reality a women not wearing makeup will have horrible discolored, inflamed, red, oily/ or super dry, etc. If you look at the rest of her skin below the neck her face pretty much is 1:1 which is actually a very healthy thing. I know, after I take off my makeup my skin is most of the time a completely different tone than the rest of my skin which is unhealthy. I think she just looks unhealthy in general BECAUSE she is malnourished and very very pale/lifeless because of it. It’s definitely not a skin problem it’s her eating disorder that’s making her skin and her as a whole in general look unhealthy.

My eyes started welling up, remembering my control over every single thing that went in my mouth, whereas the friends I was with were giggling. Of course it’s no fault of theirs, they were being themselves along with the rest of the audience. At the same time I was overwhelmed that I even reacted that way after 1 1/2 into recovery.

"If she triggers you, then please kindly click off". See, that's the problem. Because she's a dermatologist making skincare focused videos, and she slips blatantly disordered eating into her content for absolutely no reason, as her ED is not relevant to her profession. Cooking and displaying your body in the manner she does is a dog whistle for the ED community; if you have the stomach for it, check out some pro-@na boards and see how she replicates that messaging in her vids. People wanting to know about sunscreen and AHAs shouldn't have to be surprised by cutaways of a shockingly thin person making a diuretic tea (which she's receiving sponsorship for, nonetheless). If she wants to be a dermatologist with an ED, fine. If she wants to be pro-ED on a channel geared towards dermatology, she needs called the fk out.

Being a doctor is a profession just like and other, it doesn't make you super human or immune to mental illness or substance abuse just because you have more knowledge or training in human anatomy and physiology.

The laxative effect you mentioned terrifies me. Growing up my family always had prunes in the house and my sister LOVED snacking on them all day from her middle school years all through high school because my mom bought them in bulk from Sam’s club. When she moved out for college my sister didn’t go out of her way to buy them and ended up having a very painful anal fissure from constipation. I can’t imagine what is going on in her body from all the fiber 😳

2,000 calories is nothing when she has said before that she works out TWICE a day. I used to obsessively measure my food when I was deep into my eating disorder. I also relied on laxatives. Not diagnosing her or anything, but she is demonstrating orthorexia, anorexia, and bulimia. The shape of her body, like her prominent rib cages, is a physical sign of an eating disorder... and she clearly does look underweight. I’m concerned and I don’t think she should be putting this behavior out in the public. She should strictly stick with skin care because she is an influencer and young or even people her age can get the wrong idea.

Hi there, I, personally, would recommend to opt out of consuming animal products (protein) as animal protein is the cause of nearly all diseases, from gathered information e.g mad cow disease and tuberculosis, that are on the rise. Cows milk, for instance, is for calves not mankind, and it can contain puss and blood, things i do not encourage to consume. Furthermore, fish like wild salmon and tuna ought to be avoided due to radiation in the seas (mercury affecting tuna too). Farmed fish too should be avoided as they may lack nutrients e.g farmed salmon may lack Omega 3 Fatty Acids obtained from algae by wild salmon in the seas. I do encourage to adopt (even if it means making small changes here and there) a well-planned, organic, unrefined and untempered with vegan diet (consuming raw plant foods where possible so as not to denature or destroy the life-forces and enzymatic activities beneficial to the human system. If disagreeing on this matter, please take some steamed carrots, plant them and see if they will grow; if not, it is because they are 'dead' plant food that cannot benefit one's 'living' cells) consisting of organic fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds and whole grains as it is the best diet to provide mankind with ultimate health and longevity. I do not even see a reason to use pharmaceutical supplements e.g Vitamin D is obtainable from organic chestnut mushrooms (UV exposed) and sun-dried mushrooms with the exception of the body's ability to make it (and store it for future use) when exposed to the sun; Iron from organic beets; Zinc from organic cashew nuts; potassium and magnesium from organic bananas; Omega 3 Fatty Acids (beneficial for the brain) from organic walnuts and pecans (looks like the brain and targets it). Please avoid factory produced meat alternatives whose chief ingredient can be 'soy' and may contain preservatives as well as additives (e.g Vinegar, a corrosive agent). Food toxicity and nutrient deficiency are a deadly combination as one is hindering the body's building materials needed to action healing whilst at the same time taxing the system with more toxic stuff, thus bringing about disease and possibly even an early death. Best wishes 💙💙💙

The kind of high school gossip criticism I’ve seen of her on the wider internet and on KZitem is so maliciously cruel and undeserved, and is so hard to understand given the mental components of EDs and how difficult they can be to overcome. Whether Dr Dray has an ED or not, whether she is seeking help or not, she deserves a place on this platform and in society as much as anybody does - whether she ever wants to address her private health publicly or not. Audiences seem to believe they are owed a creators entire inner world, and it’s just not the case - it’s a toxic way to think about people who are brave enough to present themself to the public sphere. Anyway - I respect Dr Dray and wish her every happiness.

Stumbled across this new channel/video in my feed today and, after recently subscribing to Dr Dray's channel, was curious to watch it and read the comments. What an eye-opener for me on sooo many levels. My thought after watching the video was I learned something about EDs. (And, yes, I had suspicions about Dr Dray from watching her videos but have personally found her PhD dermatology info beneficial.) Then I read the comments. Found many threads debating everything, even imputing motives of the author, for better or worse. Putting all that aside, I learned even more about EDs and the suffering/mental anguish one endures who has one or more EDs. Those of you going thru this or having lost loved ones in death, you have my deepest sympathy. Those who have successfully recovered, congratulations. Imo: like everything we do in this unbalanced world we live, we need to be mindful of, and balanced in, what we feed our bodies AND what we feed our minds. One thing is certain: we can no longer take things at face value; each of us has to do our own research on matters and/or discuss with a trusted source before making decisions that affect our health. For me this includes ridding my mind of negativity.

Abbey, you did an exemplary job of examining Dr. Dray. I found your video after following Dr. Dray and having a concern about her ED. My wife died 3 years ago, at 53, after having anorexia to some extent since childhood. I was her caregiver as she became housebound and finally bedbound before passing. Dr. Dray has so many anorexic traits and reminds me of my wife in that regard; she has the same unhealthy appearance and as well was very intelligent about nutrition; they just can't apply the knowledge in a balanced healthy way. It is a horrific illness, one that is extremely difficult to defeat. It can only be done from within (they must recognize the problem and request professional help); ultimatums and logic do not apply. Anyway, you did a fine job here. I just wish we could help Dr. Dray and others suffering ED... but we cannot, only they can and with extreme and never ending effort at that.

IMO, Dr. Dray seems more orthorexic than anorexic. She seems to eat large quantities unlike most anorexics and is concerned with the quality like an orthorexic. Orthorexia is literally an obsession with eating foods that one considers healthy, just like Dr. Dray. Abbey even mentioned the possibility of it being orthorexia at 19:23.

In the US, orthorexia is not a recognized diagnosis.

people with more restrictive eating disorders can eat large quantities, they just choose low cal stuff to volume eat

I was seeing a few of Dr.Drays videos… and I thought I was paranoid when thinking she looked very very thin and not healthy… 🙁 She is great dermatologist but I feel her what I eat in a day can be dangerous. My salads are delicious and big bowls of goodness with Lots of protein, fats, veggies, fruits and seeds.. I would cry if I had to eat those mason jar salads… 🥴

I am a person who (unintentionally) undereats during the day (due to stress, a heavy workload, etc.) then binges at night. I don't think I ever get enough calories, as I never seem to have enough energy and feel faint at the gym. Today I want to the grocery store and got tons of healthy, easy foods and am excited to start my journey towards a healthier lifestyle. I was inspired by a few of your videos I recently discovered -thank you so, SO much!

Bill Eyelash I was the same way and all I can say is take baby steps. I like to have liquid calories on hand. It’s easy to stop at a gas station and pick up a muscle milk or have protein bars/other non perishables around.

Maybe get some blood work done. I had such low numbers in iron and all the vitamin B’s. I had to get my numbers up to feel better. Much Love... xoxo

If I had disordered eating, I would hope someone would speak to me as compassionately and calmly as you do here.

Jaz Helton yes, but I would hope it wouldn’t be a stranger making a KZitem video about me without my permission or a subscriber from my channel as my personal matters are none of their business. We aren’t her doctors, family or friends. It’s not our job to publicly express concern for her. She clearly doesn’t appreciate it because she deletes all comments about it on her channel. If she replied back to people thanking them then it would be appropriate, but she doesn’t.

I love Dr. Dray! She helped me switch to cerave when I was suffering with acne a few years ago. I hope she's doing okay...
