Home College Members Publications ... PDF Version About this leaflet This leaflet is for anyone who has anorexia or bulimia, or who feels that their eating or dieting is getting out of control. It should also be helpful for anyone with a friend or relative, son or daughter, who is having a problem of this sort. It does not deal with the problems of being overweight. Introduction We all eat differently. Some of us eat more, some of us eat less. Some of us put on weight easily, some of us do not. However, if we have an eating disorder, we damage our health by: eating too much eating too little using harmful ways to get rid of calories. This leaflet deals with two eating disorders - anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. Who gets eating disorders? Girls and women are 10 times more likely than boys and men to suffer from anorexia or bulimia. Boys and men do, though, seem to be getting eating disorders more often Symptoms People with anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa share an intense fear of becoming fat. If you have an eating disorder, your symptoms may not fit neatly into the description either of anorexia or of bulimia.

Volume 33, No. 3 March 2002 document.write(''); document.write(''); document.write(''); document.write(''); Promising treatments for anorexia and bulimia RESEARCH BOOSTS SUPPORT FOR TOUGH-TO-TREAT EATING DISORDERS. BY TORI DeANGELIS After years of investigation, researchers are finally homing in on ways to help young women overcome two dangerous psychiatric disorders: anorexia nervosa, the rare disease of self-starvation, and bulimia nervosa, the condition marked by binge-eating, purging to avoid weight gain, low self-esteem and depression. While mental health professionals have tried to understand and treat anorexia nervosa since the 1970s, their efforts have met with little success. The mainstay of treatment has been hospitalization for weight regain, sometimes followed by psychotherapy, and it's often ineffective at helping patients recover physically and psychologically over the long term, those studying the disorder say. But new research reveals there may be a more effective treatment for anorexia: a form of family therapy that enlists parents' aid in getting their teen-age daughters to eat again and helps to strengthen the young women's autonomy. The treatment, which originated in England, challenges current anorexia treatment because it's relatively short-term, relies mostly on outpatient treatment and boasts lasting success, those involved say. "Overall, patients appear to do remarkably well on this treatment," says James Lock, MD, PhD, a child psychiatrist at Stanford University who's testing the treatment in the United States on a five-year National Institute on Mental Health (NIMH) grant. "I'm amazed at its ability to help patients overcome the acute symptoms of anorexia nervosa."

186. FDA/CFSAN Why Do Eating Disorders (bulimia Nervosa And Anorexia Nervosa) Require There are no drugs approved specifically for bulimia or anorexia, but several, If you think a friend or family member has bulimia or anorexia, http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/qa-wh2.html

Why do eating disorders (bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa) require medical attention? Anorexia may be a single, limited episode with large weight loss within a few months followed by recovery. Or it may develop gradually and persist for years. The illness may go back and forth between getting better and getting worse. Or it may steadily get more severe. Anorectics may exercise excessively. Their preoccupation with food usually prompts habits such as moving food about on the plate and cutting it into tiny pieces to prolong eating, and not eating with the family. Obsessed with weight loss and fear of becoming fat, anorectics see normal folds of flesh as "fat" that must be eliminated. When the normal fat padding is lost, sitting or lying down brings discomfort not rest, making sleep difficult. As the disorder continues, victims may become isolated and withdraw from friends and family. The body responds to starvation by slowing or stopping certain bodily processes. Blood pressure falls, breathing rate slows, menstruation ceases (or, in girls in their early teens, never begins), and activity of the thyroid gland (which regulates growth) diminishes. Skin becomes dry, and hair and nails become brittle. Lightheadedness, cold intolerance, constipation, and joint swelling are other symptoms. Reduced fat causes the body temperature to fall. Soft hair called lanugo forms on the skin for warmth. Body chemicals may get so imbalanced that heart failure occurs.

188. Psychotherapy For Bulimia Nervosa And Binging (Cochrane Review) Abstract of a systematic review of the effects of health care prepared by theCochrane Collaboration. http://www.update-software.com/Abstracts/AB000562.htm

From The Cochrane Library, Issue 3, 2005 Psychotherapy for bulimia nervosa and binging (Cochrane Review) Hay PJ, Bacaltchuk J, Stefano S ABSTRACT What's new in this issue Search abstracts Browse alphabetical list of titles Browse by Review Group A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 21 April 2004. Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary. Background: Bulimia nervosa and related syndromes such as binge eating disorder are common in young Western women. A specific manual-based form of cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) has been developed for the treatment of bulimia nervosa (CBT-BN). Other psychotherapies, some from a different theoretical framework, and some modifications of CBT are also used. Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of CBT and CBT-BN and compare them with other psychotherapies in the treatment of adults with bulimia nervosa or related syndromes of recurrent binge eating. Search strategy: Selection criteria: All studies that have tested any form of psychotherapy for adults with non-purging bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder and/or other types of eating disorders of a bulimic type (eating disorder not otherwise specified, or EDNOS) and which applied a randomised controlled and standardised outcome methodology. Studies with greater than 50% drop-out rates were not included. Data collection and analysis: Main results: Authors' conclusions: There is a small body of evidence for the efficacy of CBT in bulimia nervosa and similar syndromes, but the quality of trials is very variable and sample sizes are often small. More and larger trials of CBT are needed, particularly for binge eating disorder and other EDNOS syndromes. Trials evaluating other psychotherapies and less intensive psychotherapies should also be conducted.

From The Cochrane Library, Issue 2, 2005 Antidepressants versus placebo for people with bulimia nervosa (Cochrane Review) Bacaltchuk J, Hay P ABSTRACT What's new in this issue Search abstracts Browse alphabetical list of titles Browse by Review Group A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 11 August 2003. Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary. Background: Bulimia Nervosa (BN) represents an important public health problem and is related to serious morbidity and even mortality. This review attempted to systematically evaluate the use of antidepressant medications compared with placebo for the treatment of bulimia nervosa. Objectives: The primary objective of this review was to determine whether using antidepressant medications was clinically effective for the treatment of bulimia nervosa.The secondary objectives were:(i) to examine whether there was a differential effect for the various classes/types of antidepressants with regard to effectiveness and tolerability(ii) to test the hypothesis that the effect of antidepressants on bulimic symptoms was independent of its effect on depressive symptoms Search strategy: Selection criteria: Inclusion criteria: every randomised, placebo-controlled trial in which antidepressant medications were compared to placebo to reduce the symptoms of bulimia nervosa in patients of any age or gender.Quality criteria: reports were considered adequate if they were classified as A or B according to the Cochrane Manual. The Jadad scale, with a cut off of 2 points, was applied to check the validity of the above referred criterion but was not used as an inclusion criterion.

A newly-recognized condition known as binge-eating disorder is considered the most common eating disorder. In the United States, it occurs in 0.7% to 4% of the population, meaning that 1 to 4 out of every 100 people have the disorder. Eating disorders affect women more often than men, but approximately 1 million men in the United States suffer from anorexia or bulimia, and millions more have binge-eating disorder. Eating disorders are more prevalent in industrialized countries and according to the American Psychiatric Association, they are most common in the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, Japan, New Zealand, and South Africa.
