Eating Disorder : A Perspective

Anorexia is marked by the refusal to eat and an obsession with thinness. It is estimated that 10 out of every 100 young women suffer from this.
Bulimia is characterized by binging and purging, meaning that a person gorges on high-calorie foods and then intentionally vomits or uses laxatives or diuretics to prevent weight gain. Bulimics are often normal weight or slightly overweight.
Binge Eating Disorder (BED), which presents itself in normal-weight,overweight, and obese people.We now know that as many as 4 million people suffer from this
