Anorexia can psoe many heath risks. The skin can become dry and flaky, and hair can become brittle or fall out. Nails become discolored. Anorexics are at high risk to suffer from organ malfunction or failure, particularly in the liver and kidneys and especially in the heart. Low body fat and weight and malnutrition can lead to dizziness, fainting, fatigue, low blood pressure, brittle bones prone to cracks or breakages, increased risk of infection, and an increased risk of hypothermia.
