Valeria Levitin, The World’s Thinnest Woman
Valeria Levitin became known through media that labeled her “the world’s thinnest woman,” a title that reflects a serious health struggle rather than an achievement. She has spoken openly about her long battle with an eating disorder that began due to pressure to be thin.
Instead of promoting extreme body ideals, Levitin has used her story to warn others about the dangers of disordered eating. Her experience shows that extreme thinness is not health or happiness, and that true well-being comes from balance, nourishment, and mental support.
