Researchers have found a link between individuals who are strongly right-handed (meaning they rarely if ever use their non-dominant hand to lead tasks) and distorted body image/eating disorders. Experts say it seems to have something to do with the fact that the brain processes body image mostly in the right hemisphere and right-handed people often have "decreased access" to that entire right side. No definitive word in the article on how this may help with treatment.

I don't like the idea of "decreased access" to any area of my brain (I need every cell I have!), and aren't the majority of us right-handed? How unfortunate.
