Eating disorders

PhDr.František Krch, Ph.D.

Patients with anorexia nervosa, bulimia or binge eating represent a very large and intrinsically differentiated group with distinct comorbidity

as well as dynamics of developing the problem. In this context, a certain conclusion with limited validity can be easily made

and generalized. Dealing with eating disorders thus requires respect to both the nature of the problem that involves the impairment

of a basic human need, and the individual, age, and social characteristics of the patient. The article aims at presenting eating disorders

as a comprehensible problem, highlighting the important implications in developing it, and outlining the treatment options.

Keywords: eating disorders, anorexia nervosa, bulimia, risk factors, treatment
