ANOREXIA
 WHAT IS ANOREXIA AND
HOW COMMON IT IS
• Anorexia is an eating disorder and serious mental
health condition.
• People who have anorexia try to keep their weight as low
as possible by not eating enough food or exercising too
much, or both. This can make them very ill because they
start to starve. They often have a distorted image of their
bodies, thinking they're fat even when they're
underweight.
• Men and women of any age can get anorexia, but it's
most common in young women and typically starts in the
mid-teens.

 10 FACTS
6. The Cause Isn’t Fully Known
Anorexia nervosa is a complex disease, and the cause isn’t fully known. However, some of the factors that may
lead to eating disorders include genetics, psychological health, environment, trauma, and biology.
7. There Are Two-Subtypes of Anorexia Nervosa
There are two types of anorexia: restricting and binge eating/purging. People with anorexia nervosa restricting
subtype place a severe restriction on the amount and type of food they consume. People with anorexia nervosa
binge eating/purging subtype also restrict their food intake, but they also engage in binge eating/purging behavior.
8. Most People Don’t Seek Treatment
9. Men Make Up 10% Of Those Suffering From Anorexia Nervosa
Although anorexia is far more common in women, men make up approximately 10% of those suffering from the
disease. All too often, men are under and undiagnosed with anorexia because of its prevalence in females.
10. Treatment Is Complex But Attainable
Recovery from anorexia is possible, even for someone who has been living with the disease for many years.
Anorexia is often treated in an outpatient setting, but hospitalization may be necessary in some situations. The
path to recovery can be long and challenging but having the right team supporting you can make all the
difference.
