The periods of starvation are hard enough on the body to begin with, but coupled with the fact that the person is vomiting their food up again it creates more wear and tear on the body. When a person (anybody) vomits they bring up hydrochloric acid from their stomach when this is done habitually and with regularity (for weeks or more), the lining of the esophagus begins to tear and will eventually cause internal bleeding. If a person is binging by way of laxatives then they might go overboard and end up dehydrating themselves to the point where they need medical attention due to other things in the body going wrong from lack of the proper fluids. People who have eating disorders will try and keep it discrete for as long as possible so they would not go to the doctor unless they had an extraordinary excuse (to cover what is really going on) or unless they suddenly had a change of heart and decided to save their life.

It's not an eating disorder 'caused by', but rather 'classified by' and it is known as Bulimia Nervosa. Google it.
bulimia is a eating disorder.ok bulimia is a eating disorder.ok
Both are deadly, it depends on how long a person suffers. A person with anorexia is in a state of self-starvation and will die due to the effects of starvation. A person with bulimia binges and purges, purging is deadly, people sometimes die on their first purge, others do it for years without dying. It's a gamble. Personally I would say bulimia, though I am NOT dismissing the dangers of anorexia, they both lead to death, but from my experience, bulimia is more dangerous.
yes, they do from binging to much.not only from bingeing to much but from having a heart attack and when you throw up you throw up all your water so you get dehydrated and so that leads to death too. and additionaly bulimia messes your throat and that can stick a lot of dangerous sicknesses to you.Yes. 20% of people who suffer from bulimia will die from the disorder or from a direct complication.
