Eating disorders are a set of complex medication conditions characterized by unhealthy eating habits and a distorted body image, often resulting in severe physical and emotional consequences.
These disorders, such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder, can lead to dangerous weight loss, nutritional deficiencies, and a preoccupation with food, weight, and body shape.
​
Individuals with eating disorders may engage in extreme behaviors, such as restricting food intake, binge-eating followed by purging, or compulsive overeating. These conditions not only affect one's physical health but also take a toll on mental well-being, contributing to feelings of guilt, shame, and low self-esteem.
