Anorexia Nervosa is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes an eating disorder, characterized by low body weight and body image distortion, with an obsessive fear of gaining weight.
Individuals with anorexia are known to control body weight commonly through the means of voluntary starvation , purging , vomiting , excessive exercise or other weight control measures , such as diet pills or diuretic drugs. While the condition primarily affects adolescent females, approximately 10% of people with the diagnosis are male. Anorexia nervosa , involving neurobiological , psychological , and sociological components , is a complex condition that can lead to death in severe cases.
