the types of food
consumption disorders in
children
Mentioned beneath are a few popular kinds of
food consumption disorders in kids and also
some causes, symptoms as well as treatments.
Bulimia Nervosa: Bulimia nervosa can be
described as consuming too much high calorie
foods or weight - gaining foods and then
burning these calories by over exercising and
intense workouts. Bulimia nervosa in fact occurs
because of a sense of being overweight or out
of shape. Children really feel ashamed of being
shapeless, but at the same time can’t refrain from
temptations of eating high calorie foods. These
individuals think that over exercising would
balance their weight and curb their temptations.
But, this is incorrect and proves dangerous for
their wellbeing.
Anorexia Nervosa: Females between the ages
of 14-18 are most troubled by this type of eating
disorder. Anorexia nervosa occurs due to being
overweight as well as shapeless. On the other
hand, here the person tries to starve himself. This
eventually leads to and furthermore encourages
the onset of many other health-related concerns.
Binge Eating: Unrestricted food consumption
with no fear of putting on weight or excessive fat
constitutes the ‘Binge’ eating disorder. This really
is consequently pretty similar to bulimia nervosa!
However, the individual with this particular
disorder doesn’t care if he/she is overweight
or obese.
“The main thing is that mothers and fathers
must not force children to consume food when
they are full or allow them to consume food
anytime they feel hungry.”
