Summary

Approaching AN from a temperament-based neurobiological perspective provides a biological foundation and conceptual framework from which to view symptoms and the underlying mechanisms that drive behavior. Temperament informs targeted interventions directed at the cause of the behavior, rather than the behavior itself. This is a paradigm shift for many. TBT-S has five core principles derived from neurobiological research. (1) Eating disorders are brain and biologically based illnesses. (2) Treat to the trait or the temperament underpinnings. (3) Food is medicine. (4) Supports are needed and a necessary part of the treatment process. d (5) Action or movement is fundamental to change.
