Weight Management
Eating disorders are serious conditions often driven by media pressure and stress. If you or someone you know is struggling, please seek medical help early.
Anorexia Nervosa
Characterised by refusal to eat, extreme fear of weight gain, and body dysmorphia. Physical signs include severe weight loss, hollow features, dry skin, and muscle weakness. Left untreated, it can be life-threatening. Treatment includes medical supervision, therapy, and medication.
Bulimia Nervosa
Cycles of binge eating followed by voluntary purging. People with bulimia may appear a normal weight. Physical signs include inflamed throat, sensitive teeth, acid reflux, and dehydration. Treatable with therapy, behavioural support, and medication.
Binge Eating Disorder
Uncontrolled overeating without purging, often linked to distress, guilt, or shame. Associated with obesity, heart problems, and organ complications. Treatable with therapy, dietary guidance, and medication.
