Loss of interest on Food
I been observing my friend this few months, she lose weight. I asked her and share with me about the things she do. She skipping meal and dieting without proper consultation from dieticians. Diet is good, but without proper regiment it can lead complication. Lately, she complaining sleepless at night and worst of all lack of interest on food. I worried about her condition, some of her co-worker suspected that she’s on stage of anorexia nervosa. On my personal research this Anorexia Nervosa is an eating disorder marked by a fear of getting fat. This disorder attributed to affects of severe weight lost and mostly women are affected to it. This disorder is hard to treat and sometimes it leads to death if not recovered immediately or complications such as cardiac arrest.
These are some symptoms that a person has Anorexia Nervosa.
- Extreme weight loss
- Aversion on food (no appetite and food intake).
- Constipation, at times.
- Loss of normal body hair and nail problems.
- Irritability and irrational behavior, especially regarding food.
- Preoccupation with weighing. Anorexics tend to check their weight several times.
- Bulimia (gorging on food, then inducing vomiting or purging).
Complications.
- Severe illness because the body lack of nourishment.
- Organ damage or failure.
- Anemia or lack of vitamin and minerals.
If you think you are in this symptoms its better to consult immediately a doctor before it may get worse, or refer some dieticians. A therapy or psychologist it will help and to prevent this eat a balance diet. If you must tom loss weight, start a scientific weight-reduction program but only after consulting dieticians.
