Health information about Eating disorders are defined by abnormal eating habits. Whether
eating too much or too little for emotional reasons. Such as having the perfect
body shape. People with this disorder aren't comfortable with how they look.
They get effected by what's in the celebrities' world, which is the perfect
body. They always think they are fat.
A fear of not
being able to cope or feeling overwhelmed are common among people with anorexia
or bulimia. People with bulimia are often unsure of themselves, lack confidence
in their abilities or suffer from depression. Binge eating may be one way to
cope with these unhappy, unsettled feelings.Eating disorders
are more than just going out to
lose weight or trying to exercise every day. It's much more than that,
teenagers with this disorders think that it's more important to do exercises
than going out to have fun. These people usually look at themselves as fat
people, they always look for being perfect through changing their eating
habits. In the other hand, eating disorder can be in overeating, it calls binge
eating disorder. Binge eating disorder is characterized by compulsive overeating. These people can't
control the way they eat and how much they eat. The presence of binge eating is a core feature
of bulimia nervosa. But unlike anorexia and bulimia, people
with binge disorder eat in huge amounts but
they don't try to throw up or exercise. But they also feel guilty because of what they are doing, they eat secretly
away from people. They also face a lack of compensatory behavior.
According to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, these people may:
Eat more quickly than
usual during binge episodes
• Eat until
they are uncomfortably full
• Eat when they
are not hungry
• Eat alone
because of embarrassment
• Feel disgusted, depressed, or guilty after overeating
A study for Jean L.
Kristeller and C. Brendan Hallett shown that BED " Females are almost
twice as common in females. with an overall prevalence rate of 3-5% in
community samples, but ranging from 15% among the general obese population to
as much as 30% for obese persons in weight control programs Obese bingers typically report binging 3-5
days per week, eat more fatty foods, and may be at greater health risk than
obese non-bingers.
As compared to obese non-bingers, obese binge eaters have a more
perfectionistic attitude toward dieting and report constantly struggling to
control their urges to eat and greater levels of dysphoria. Individuals who
binge have been shown to have a decreased awareness of their level of satiety,
a critical aspect in the regulation of food intake." Journal of Health Psychology. (1999
