Anorexia Nervosa

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.

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.

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.

Lanugo is a thin, "peach-fuzz" like hair that gorws on the skin. It is often light colored, and commonly found on the back, chest, arms, and face. People who are severly underweight or do not have proper amounts of body fat are at risk of growing this form of hair. It is, essentially, the body's primal instincts as a last resort to stay warm. Body fat provides a layer of insulation to the body. Internal organs and core body temperature must maintain a fairly constant temperature. If it drops too low, a person is in danger of hypothermia. When the body cannot keep itself warm enough, it will grow this extra layer of hair. This is similar to how animals have thicker coats of fur in the winter to help keep them warm. While people have evolved beyond growing long coats of fur in the cold weather, it is still a natural instinct to survival to help try in any way possible to keep the body warm and alive.
