Where does $email_address come from?

Unless we know that, we can't discuss header injection...

Also, this:
$body = $body . "...";

is more usually expressed as:

$body .= "...";

And, finally, your '\r\n' are not going to work.
Only \\ and \' are special inside ''
You need "" for \r\n to be special.
