Dangers of Eating Disorders
The most commonly talked about eating disorder is anorexia nervosa. With this disorder, a strong fear of gaining weight causes a person to eat very little, and sometimes stop eating altogether. Body weight drops below a healthy minimum weight, but the person suffering still feels like she needs to lose weight. She sees herself as if in a funhouse mirror. Though she's extremely thin, she sees an overweight person who still needs to lose weight. This distorted body image leads to more weight loss. If not caught early, weight loss can become so extreme that it becomes life threatening. While mostly women and girls develop anorexia nervosa, a small percentage of victims are men. Aside from weight issues, there are control issues for someone suffering from anorexia. The ability to control everything that goes into a person's body makes them feel powerful. And the more they restrict what they eat, the more in control they feel.
Bulimia nervosa is another common eating disorder, with health consequences that are just as potentially deadly as those found with anorexia. With such extreme consequences, it's important to find the best option when it comes to an eating disorders treatment center. With bulimia, the person doesn't restrict her food intake. Instead, she often does something called binge eating and purging. She'll eat excessive amounts of rich, fattening foods in a binge, and then cause herself to vomit to avoid digesting the calories. Sometimes it becomes so extreme that the sufferer feels the need to purge even small, healthy meals. Any food taken in must be purged out before the calories can be absorbed. The frequent vomiting erodes the surface of the teeth and damages the esophagus. And the person slowly starves, just as with anorexia. Both those suffering from bulimia and anorexia may use other dangerous practices to lose weight, like compulsive exercising, and using laxatives and diuretics.
