Anoreixa, which is the shortened name-version for anorexia nervosa, is an eating disorder. It is very dangerous and can often be deadly. Anorexia is characterized by a person's great fear of gaining weight, and strong desire to lose weight. To do so, they take drastic measures including strictly reducing or limiting their food, beverage, calorie, and fat intake along with increased, excessive exercise.
