What is "anorexia nervosa"?
Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder characterized by an intense fear of gaining weight and a twisted body image, leading to severe restriction of food intake and excessive weight loss. People with this condition often see themselves as overweight even when they are dangerously thin. This disorder can cause serious physical and psychological health issues, including malnutrition, heart problems, and depression. Treatment typically involves a combination of psychological therapy, nutritional counseling, and medical monitoring.
