Paola Turani, a model and influencer very followed on Instagram with over two million followers, recently shared a personal and profound story that touched the hearts of many. Its history does not only concern fashion or glamor, but something much more serious and important: the fight against anorexia and the impact of political decisions on eating disorders.

In his message, Paola has exposed her concern and disappointment for the government's decision to reduce funding intended for the fight against nutrition disorders. He highlighted how this choice could have devastating consequences, leading to the closure of specialized departments, the dismissal of professionals and leaving many patients and their families without the necessary support. Paola underlines that eating disorders require a complex therapeutic approach, both psychological and physical, which is too often underestimated or ignored.

The most touching part of his message was when he shared his personal battle against anorexia. Paola told how, at the age of twenty, under the pressure of an extremely competitive and demanding work environment in Paris, it started to drastically reduce her food intake. The model describes a dark period in which it jumped meals, avoided training for fear of increasing weight and in the end came to eat only one apple a day.

He described the toxic environment in which he worked, where to lose weight meant receiving more jobs and approvals. Her agents spurs her to lose more and more weight, feeding a vicious circle that led her to isolate herself from friends and family. "You are never quite thin for Paris", they said, a phrase that resonates as an echo of the unrealistic and harmful expectations of the fashion industry.

Fortunately, Paola's story has a happy ending. After years of struggle, she managed to get rid of these harmful schemes and chose to return home to Bergamo, where she started working following her rules, placing her health and well -being in first place. Today, it shares its history to give hope and inspiration to those who are facing similar challenges, showing that healing and a positive change are possible.

His message is clear: more attention and resources must be given to the fight against eating disorders and remember that behind each model and every person who fights with these challenges there are complex stories that deserve to be listened to and supported.
