What Are Anorexia and Bulimia?
Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa are complex “Bio-Psycho-Social” diseases that require a multi-disciplinary approach to treatment. Among the factors that contribute to the development of these conditions are:
- a biologic pre-disposition
- physiologic consequences of semi-starvation
- aberrant nutritional patterns
- cultural pressures
- family problems
- psychological stressors
- psychological make-up.
Recovery is best achieved when each of these issues is addressed via individualized treatment plans.
