Bulimia nervosa is an eating disorder indicated by
uncontrolled binge eating, often involving large
amounts of high-calorie foods, followed by induced vomiting or using
laxatives to purge all of
the food eaten. The eating and purging are often done in secret. This
is a very serious medical
and psychological problem with potentially dangerous complications.
The disorder is often stress
related especially with emotional issues. Good nutritional supplements
can help a lot, and the care
and understanding of those around the person with bulimia.
