There is no public record or credible source indicating that Todd Rundgren had anorexia nervosa when he was young. While he has discussed various personal challenges and experiences throughout his life, specific details about an eating disorder have not been prominently mentioned in interviews or biographies. Therefore, it is not accurate to assert that he experienced anorexia nervosa.
Yes, believe it or not there is a huge rise in childhood anorexia! There is a clinic in the UK that specializes in anorexia in children and its a clinic for young girls.
