What causes anorexia be prevented on Guinea pigs?
Guinea pigs do not get anorexic. If they have a roommate, they may be being bullied and unable to eat. If so, take them or the roommate out so they can eat, and plan on giving someone a new cage. They may not like their food (if you have immediately changed it, switch back), or they are sick. If the condition persists or worsens, take the pig to a vet, please.
What internal health problems come from throwing up once daily and what are the signs?
Erosion of tooth enamel because of repeated exposure to acidic gastric contents. Dental cavities, sensitivity to hot or cold food. Swelling and soreness in the salivary glands (from repeated vomiting). Stomach Ulcers. Ruptures of the stomach and esophagus. Abnormal buildup of fluid in the intestines. Disruption in the normal bowel release function. Electrolyte imbalance. Dehydration Irregular heartbeat and in severe cases heart attack A greater risk for suicidal behavior Decrease in libido The above were found on mamashealth.com and describes some of the complications of bulimia. http://www.mamashealth.com/eat/bulimia.asp You will damage your esophagus over time because the stomach acid continually burns your tube coming up. Also, after awhile, your body will do it automatically and stopping will be hard. Almost like trying to quit smoking, you will need councelling and doctors to help you.
Specialty coffee drinks, like those sold at Starbucks, are high in caffeine, which gives energy, and perks drinkers up. They are also filling. So, if all you have is one drink, and replace a meal with it, you will not gain weight. Also, it is trendy to drink high-end coffee drinks. Keep in mind that the number of calories in coffee depends on the type of coffee drink. Espressos have 5.4 calories and black coffee possibly 10 or less. Its the lattes, cappaucinos and hot chocolates that have a lot of calories.
Who was the first anorexic person in the world?
This is debateable. While the first medically documented case of anorexia didn't appear until the 1800s by two English doctors, there are various reports that date much farther back than that. Some Greek writings indicate people starving themselves (for otherwise un-known reasons, not health or medical), which is a large factor in anorexia. Some believe that Catherine of Sienna might have had an eating disorder, as some monks wrote that she died from only eating berries and fruits and nothing else, a sign of anroexia.

Answer #2 from different source.
i honestly can't believe this is a question, and i can't believe the answer either. the real answer is ALL OF THEM. anorexia is a disease and suggesting to someone who is anorexic that they should just drink smoothies, is absurd. if you have anorexia, you need to seek help and get yourself better....and start eating. so my answer is...all of the recipes should be considered.
Is it possible for your body to eat itself?
Your body can use fat stored in fat cells for engery, and if it really needs to it is able to break down your muscles for engery. So I would say that yes, your body can eat itself in a manner of speaking.
Why does your nose appear fat in the morning and become thin in the evening?
Because whilst you are asleep fluid collects in the nose giving it a swollen appearance. As the day progresses and the circulation of the body becomes improved the fluid drains away leaving a slimmer nose. Well when you wake up in the morning your face including your nose of course is greasy so therefore it makes your nose appear thicker and more noticeable

How can you hide being anorexic?
dont hide it. get help no you can't. being anorexic shows throughout your entire body. your face changes and gets very gaunt with hollow cheeks and your hands get extremely bony and the veins show up really well. also your hair starts getting really dry and rough which you can't hide unless you get a wig or shave you head, which would look really ugly. and then, eventually, you die which everyone would find out about in the long run, so why not just enjoy life?
Why would you want a picture? Use your imagination-- thin, bones sticking out, etc. If you search it online, pictures will come up. Bring a garbage bag with you, it can make you feel sick.
Yes.
However, not NEARLY as often as a normal/healthy person would. Because they eat so little, their bodies don't have enough stuff to waste, therefore sometimes they can go long periods of time without having a BM. BUT alot of anorexic people use laxatives to "flush out" their system, and so then, yes they would have a BM however often they take laxatives.
How many days would it take to lose about 10 pounds by starving yourself?
it would probably take a few weeks because when one starves themself they actually gain a few lbs cuz of the swelling of the stomache. if u want to lose a few lbs fast drink a liquid diet for a week, but make sure you get the vitamins you need via suppliment. warning.....this is only a temporary solution and will only work for the first few lbs. ALSO THIS IS MY OPINION AND MY OPINION ONLY I AM NOT A DOCTOR!!!!
I wouldn't go towards bulimia or anorexia or laxatives. But honestly I think you should just work out a lot like 5-7 times a week at least 30 of cardio and I would do 2-3 days of strength training.
If you don't like fruit as a whole you could try making a smoothie. That way it tastes like juice but you have 3-4 servings of fruit. Also there are a lot of products in grocery stores that taste great and you get fruit and vegetable servings. I think one is fruit-to-go and V8 makes a fruit juice that tastes good as well.
I've also heard of ways to get people to eat fruit and vegetables by hiding them in foods people may find easier to eat. Things like brocolli in chocolate chip cookies and things like that. There are tons of recipes to do so.
Count your calories and work out. But I think you should find ways in which to eat fruit and vegetables seeing as they are good for you. Seriously, you could have had a V-8, and they have new fruit flavor blends as well.Still drink 8-8oz glasses of water a day and take a multiple vitamin. Eat eggs and plain boiled or baked chicken , and some cottage cheese ,2 big TBLSP for protein.Stay away from white bread, pasta, and white sugar. Try nuking a Yukon Gold potato.They almost taste already buttered.Go easy on the salt. Kosher salt has more flavor and no additives. Do NOT barf or abuse laxatives. You could have serious health problems later in life.
What causes guinea pigs to cough?
If you are ever concerned about your piggies health, then please consult a vet. However, some things to consider are: What bedding do you use, have you bathed your piggy recently, how often does your pig cough/sneeze? Perhaps you could answer the above for me and I will help you further. Also, please hold your piggy close to your ear so you can clearly hear her breathing. Is there any cheery coughs that you can hear or any peculiar sounds. Pine chips is not the best bedding to use for guinea pigs due to the oils it contains. I would recommend a mixture of hay and shredded paper. A bath each week is a little excessive as piggies generally don't like the experience. Once every 3 months is adequate unless he gets really messy. The dry food usually comes with added vitamin c, so with the veggies, a suppliment isn't necessary. Keep an eye on that cough and let me know if it happens again.
Can you choose not to put a cast on?
Yes you can..just don't go to the doctors...the bone will heal funny but if your very careful not to move it it actually might heal fine..I know from personal experience I had a leg cast for my fractured fibula near the ankle and I healed fine..it all depends how bad the break/or fracture is(mine wasn't bad at all a hairline fracture almost)..if it isn't bad why not just wrap it tightly or get a homemade splint from a medical store
Most anorexics deny that they are ill and are usually brought to treatment by a family member
Give your pet rat to a trustful friend or relative. Or someone in your village or neighborhood. Just please do not give it to someone random, or not trust worthy person, (or cats!!!), to ensure a loving and forever home. But if your pet rat is not a domestic rat, meaning it is a wild rat, you can just, uh..... set it free in the backyard??? Pls only set it free or give it away if necessary. And also don't set free DOMESTIC RATS. They do not carry many diseases, and still have a chance of having a forever home. Thanks and hope this helped! PS. I'm so sorry that you are dealing with depression.
