Anorexia Nervosa

Both anorexia and bulimia are dangerous eating disorders that can be potentially fatal. Each had many risks, side effects, and consequences. Both EDs are found primarily in girls between the ages of 12 and 28 in middle- to upper-class families. Both are eating disorders related to the desparate desire to lose weight.

Bulimia is far more common than anorexia is. Bulimics will binge and the purge to lose weight, while anorexics will mainly tightly restrict their calorie intake and then exercsie excessively to burn off even more calories. Anorexia has a higher fatality rate from the actual disorder, while bulimia has a higher suicide rate (as it is far less effective) and a higher fatality due to complications and medical side effects.

Not usually, no.

It really does depend.But weaker than the average male for sure.

That is not commonly done. Anorexics will sometimes abuse painkillers in order to relieve their bodies of the stress that lack of proper nutrition and excessive exercise can place on them or to strive off hunger pains, but painkillers do not work as diet pills.

Their is not a difference between the two things. Anorexia Nervosa is the name of the actual eating disorder. The other eating disorder is Bulimia Nervosa, and it is different from Anorexia Nervosa.

Anorexia can cause many problems - often dangerous or deadly - to a person and their body and mind and well being. Some of the most common are...

*Weight loss, protruding bones

*Dry skin

*Discolored nails

*Dry or brittle or thin hair, hair loss

*Poor eyesight

*Weakness, fatigue

*Dizziness

*Fainting

*Feeling cold (when other are not)

*Pain, enflamed joints, arthritis

*Brittle bones

*Depression

*Isolation

*OCD, BDD (Body Dismorphc Disorder)

*Mood swings

*Organ malfunction / struggle (heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, eyes, stomach)

*Loss of menstruation (for girls)

*Loss of sex drive (for men)

*Organ failure (heart, lungs, kidneys, liver)

*Heart murmur, heart conditions

*Low blood pressure

*Low heart rate

An anorexic most cope with these daily, along with social pressures and possible pressures from others to be thin or to eat more.

It varies per individual. Almost always anorexics will have a noticeably less percent of body fat or weight from body fat that a "normal" or "average" weight person.

Previous experiences, such as those that occur during childhood, affect our current responses to food and eating behaviors.

it affects the way your mind, body, and eyes work. your mind will always think that your to fat, your eye will always see you as fat and your body will become weak from not eating. after that your body just gets to weak and you die.

Fasting, exercising, restricting calories, taking diet pills, and purging food are common methods.

Anorexia was first recorded as an actual disorder in 1873 by two English doctors. However, writings from monasteries dating as far back as ancient Greeks reveal reports of self-starvation and throwing up after meals. Priests wrote that Catherine of Sienna died due to only eating small meals and refusing to eat at most meals, which is now a sign of severe anorexia.

Firstly they need adequate nutrition to help their body function properly, then they will need extra nutrition to fill or replenish their starving and malnourished organs and blood cells. They will then need to see a counselor or psychologist to find what triggered a norexia in the first place

People are (or might be) anorexic if they show some common signs. Those are....

*Fear of food / gaining weight

*Self-starvation

*Excessive exercise

*Fasting, purging, laxative abuse, ect.

*Depression

*OCD

*BDD (Body Dismorphic Disroder)

*Low body weight

*Low body fat percentage

*Weakness, dizziness, fainting

*Low nutrition levels (vitamins, minerals, fats, calories, ect.) in the diet / body

Not exactly. Anorexia must be diagnosed based on a variety of factors, including mental state, weight, age, height, backgorund, and medical exams. Not eating for 12 days is very dangerous, though. It is a form of starving / fasting, and is dangerous and unhealthy.

Being too skinny can be a result of poor nutrition or starvation (from natural causes, abuses, or eating disorders such as anorexia or bulimia). This can lead to complications with vital organs, such as the liver, kidneys, lung, and heart. A person can die from a lack of essential vitamins or minerals in their body, too.

Millions of girls world-wide suffer from anorexia. It is most prevalent in western nations, such as westenr Europe and the United States. In those areas, anorexia affects roughly 1 in every 250 people.

It can be, but there are numerous other possible causes, too.

An adipokine is a cytokine secreted by adipose tissue.

not always when you have a murmur heart you have anorexia. so if you born with it dont worry about it .

Neither is "healthy". There are more long-term health consequences associated with anorexia, though, and it is also a mental disease where as being "fat" or overweight does in deed carry health consequences, but can be easier to get to a healthy weight because it does not carry the same mental disorder aspect as anorexia does.

No. Most people can feel their collarbone somewhat (especially women, in men it is more obscured by muscle naturally). It is often protruding in healthy people, too.

Not usually, no. It is difficult for anorexics to get pregnant in the first place. But the severe lack in nutrition can be devastating for the baby.

Tell the doctor immediately if you experience weight gain. I had this happen to me with Seroquel.
