10 Symptoms Of Bulimia
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #7: Binge Eating
The main characteristic of patients with bulimia nervosa is the binge and purge cycle. This is the hallmark of this condition and it is something that should be assessed properly by a medical professional.
Patients suffering from bulimia nervosa will binge eat abnormal amounts of food, and later on, they will purge the calories away by inducing vomit, using laxatives or even engaging in extreme physical activity to burn the excess calories. Take notice that even the exercise-related purge is considered to be an unhealthy habit that needs to be treated by a professional.
