DISTORTED BODY IMAGE PERCEPTION and other effects ed has onyour health
Many young women, and men, are going through a struggle these days. The struggle to feel attractive, to fit in... to be thin. Sometimes, these people have found that the only way they can reach that goal is to starve themselves. Or to binge, and then throw everything up again. Little do they know, this has serious effects on their health.
Here are a few examples:
1. Reduction of bone density (osteoporosis), which results in dry, brittle bones.
2. Severe dehydration, which can result in kidney failure.
3. Fainting, fatigue and just weakness all around.
4. Dry hair and skin. Hair loss is usually common.
