Feature, Gina Shaw WebMD. "Anorexia and Bulimia: Cracking the Genetic Code." WebMD. WebMD,         2005. Web. 08 Nov. 2013.

This article is a credible source for my research because the author has written for WebMD since 1999. Her credentials are that she is a senior writer with the Association of American Medical Colleges in Washington, D.C. As a freelancer, she has also written health articles for Ladies' Home Journal and writes regularly for medical organizations including the American Academy of Neurology. The author’s main goal in this article is to inform and teach people that anorexia may in fact be genetically passed down. This article generally targets people who are afflicted by a certain illness or disorder causing them to look up symptoms and treatment. They would be interested because they may suffer from any number of eating disorders and would disagree and agree with the author’s article. The author incorporates anecdotal, statistical and testimonial evidence on this topic. This evidence builds credibility because it allows the reader to see the true expertise of the author but it limits it in a way because of her conclusion. Based on my opinion, I would agree with this author’s skill set and evidence but not her conclusion. This article is important to my essay because of the facts and misconstrued conclusion that happens when you have a closed mind.
