What are two cause of Anorexia?

Anorexia is often cause by low self-esteem. This can happen as a result of teasing from others, rude comments, and depression. Anorexia can also (though some dispute this) be caused by the media. Most models are tall and very thin. Magazines show mostly re-touched "perfect" images of models. Girls often think, through the meida, that "thin is good", because there is a large lack of positive ideas about healthy, normal looking people and weights. Trying to be so thin can easily cause anorexia.

Why does advertising cause anorexia?

Some people believe that the media (advertising, commercials, tv, magazines, music, ect.) can cause people, especially teenage girls, to become anorexic because it promotes "thin is good". Many models look beautiful, and almost every ad out there is photo touched to make it look perfect. If someone tries to emulate this, and tries to become "perfect", then they might become anorexic to try and become thin and do what they think will make them "more beautiful and perfect". Often, media and advertising tends to promote being thin.

Anorexia can cause some respritory problems. A person with anorexia tends to have a weaker immune system, making them more prone to infection and viruses (cold, flu, bacteria, ect.). This can cause inflamation and even possibly permanent damage to the respritory system. Increased stress on the body can also weaken the lungs. Anorexia can also worsen pre-existing conditions.


Can stress cause Anorexia?

Anorexia is DEEP stress. The girl/guy who has anorexia Nervosa think they are fat when they look in the mirror, when really they are skinny/very skinny. So it can be very stressful---VERY. I've never had it, nor do I want to BECOME anorexic, but when people have anorexia, people say it's a "battle," or "fight--" like Demi Lovato, Snooki, (Nicole Polizzi) and Lady Gaga--(some people say Angelina Jolie is anorexic--idk.) It isn't fun, and nor do they still think theyre skinny. It's very hard, most girls/boys should go to counseling/rehab for it, or have someone get the person back on track. 💜Good day/night, I hope my answer was helpful.
